Friday Feedback: A Listener tells Mark to 'Get Over Yourself'...ouch. Plus, we talk Tapering on Tour, and a Slow Play Enforcement Idea

The weekends nearly here, hope you've got some downtime, some family time, and some golf time planned! Today on our Friday Feedback pod we have a lot of fun, although we start with Mark thinking for some reason he is qualified to give medical advice and makes some observations on the cut that Dan has on his head from the kitchen cupboard. Helpful from Mark.

After we get through that, onto the golf chat....!

01:00Peter has some thoughts on bunker play to run by Nick and Mark.

02:00We chat about some of the great South African bunker players.

04:00We love Chooky Fowler, but he could occasionally play slow. If you've not seen our chat with him, google Chooky Fowler and Talk Birdie To Me and it will come up.

05:00A question about Nick and Marks fitness regime during non competition weeks when they were on the tour, and how did they manage their motivation.

06:30We talk about the importance, as a pro, of tapering.

08:00Nick talks about how Tiger would prepare for competition

09:00How Augusta get the course ready for The Masters in the weeks leading up, and how brilliant it is for the members.

20:00Phil has an idea on the policing of slow play, inspired by the Olympics, Nick and Mark are big fans.

23:00A wolfpacker gives mark a serve telling him to 'get over himself'

25:00A fun comment on a piece of commentary that a wolfpacker heard during The Open Championship a couple of months ago that they thought Mark particularly might enjoy. He does.

27:00And a spur of the moment top 5 'blinkered' players in tournaments.
