🏌🏿‍♂️Bonus: Sandbelt Golf Tips, Sprinklers and Preferred Lies, and Marks Embarrassing Jokes Take an Unhelpful Twist

As we get closer to wrapping the year for Christmas (see what we did there?) another Q&A bonus pod where we run through some questions from the Talk Birdie Wolfpack.

Sammy has written in about a young star called Riley, a year 8 fella, who he met at Lonsdale Links. A good reminder for Mark that he needs to play Lonsdale Links.

Dan from Brisbane has a rules question from the Australian PGA in Brisbane to do with balls on or adjacent to sprinkler heads.

Muttonhead has messaged a joke for Mark. It's awful, unsurprisingly Mark rates it.

And we take a call from Wolfpack member Garry from Samoa whose daughter Faith is a gun golfer, the first ever Samoan to win the New Zealand Women's Amateur title in the Waikato no less in 2023, and she is heading back to Melbourne in January to play in the Master of the Amateur Tournament and is after some tips from Nick and Mark on sandbelt play. It's a great chat and we loved hearing from Garry and Faith - she sounds like someone to watch for certain.
