    Ep90: Hitting into Nets = Good. Matt Wallace = Disgrace. Tyrell Hatton = Idiot. Low Riser = Sexy. Nick O'Hern = On Time This Week.

    This week on Talk Birdie, Nick and Mark discuss Rory McIlroy locking himself away and hitting into a net to fix his swing. Both highly recommend this as a way to address any swing technique issues. And it has clearly worked given his performance at the weekend. Mark talks about Jonathan Yarwood's comments on Rory's swing, and talks through when Steve Bann was making changes to K.J. Choi's swing. Nick talks about playing with K.J Choi and what kind of bloke he was. We discuss yesterdays voicemail from former tour pro Scott Laycock which had Nick and Mark in stitches. Mark tells a story about watching Greg Norman when he was a kid hit a low riser, which Nick describes as the 'sexiest ball flight ever'. Nick is annoyed about the US team wanting money to play Ryder Cup. Mark tells a hilarious story about former tour pro Carlos Franco being 'dodgy'. We discuss the money generated by the Ryder Cup. Mark loves how not too long back, Bryson was extremely unliked, but has completely turned it around, he loves the hole in one challenge at Bryson's home. Yasir, Trump and Elon at the UFC together. What does that mean for golf and everyone getting back together? Nick and Mark discuss the Matt Wallace incident this week which they describe as disgraceful and shocking. Nick brings up Tyrell Hatton's behaviour this week which he also described as a disgrace. We discuss what the penalties should be, and agree they can't be financial. Nick and Mark share a couple of times when their playing partner was behaving badly. Mark has been banging on about how nobody will beat him in the 'nearest the pin' comp at the Sandown Greyhound Racing Melbourne Cup on Saturday November 30, so we call the Club Manager Adrian to get inside info on the prizing and how to smash Marko. Nick played Royal Melbourne this morning and gives an observation on the rakes, which leads to the most recent poll results on rakepod. Inspired by Rory's swing adjustments, Nicks Top 5 swing rebuilds this week is a ripper. As always plenty of feedback, including a question about Nick and Marks clubhead speed. Nick takes us through all the results from the last week in the PING global results, and Mark puts a call out for tour pro Alex Simpson to get in touch after a cracking NSW Open. This weeks masterclass from Marko is on tips to improve your chipping and pitching. PING will help you play your best, like they have for Nick O'Hern.

    Ep89: The Golfer Nick O'Hern calls 'A Machine', Jason Day's LIV comments, Lonsdale Links Review, and UFC themed Golf Merch?

    We're live at the Golf Clearance Outlet in Preston today, the latest store for them in their quest to take over the world, and it's a ripper. Nick is running late for the pod, he's been playing at Lonsdale Links in Victoria and has had a mad dash to get to the pod in time, thus his tardiness. Mark hasn't played Lonsdale Links, and given Nick was their all day as part of a left-handed day, he is the perfect person to give a snapshot of what he thought - and it's all positive. Except for one thing, which disappoints Mark. Nick loved the names of the holes, particularly the 5th. We discuss Bernhard Langer who is in a purple patch of form, and won at the weekend. We look at his driving distance , which is not at the level of some of the other guys, but he still finds a way to win. We run through some of his stats, which are extremely impressive. Mark tells a story about Langer coming out to Australia for the 1985 Masters. We chat about Jason Day's LIV comments this week. Is the public story correct or is there more to it? Next to us at the Golf Clearance Outlet, is a GC Quad, Mark is fascinated by them and what they do, he talks through what Xander has been doing with the GC Quad. Nick talks about his relationship with technology vs feel. Mark asks Nick about how accurate he was in analysing distance without tech. As we're about to go the turn Sam, who is the big cheese at the Golf Clearance Outlet, walks past so we grab him for a chat about the stores, how they're doing, and some of the specials on offer. We hear a great story about Tiger Woods, and Sam debuts a UFC themed golf product. A ripping Top 5 this week for our mates at Southern Golf Club, and a Top 5 suggested by Wolfpack member Chris Payne - the Top 5 Aussie players with underrated careers. One of the entries leads to a great story about Mark getting tanked in Scotland with a couple of very famous golfers. Third Man Dan reckons Mark, and Chris, have overlooked an obvious underrated golfer....although, ironically, he has overlooked the fact that his suggestion is not in fact Australian. Nick gives us the PING Global results and, as usual, PING players are killing it all over the world. Some good feedback this week, keep it coming, we love your comments and questions. Nick's masterclass today, inspired by Bernhard Langer, is on older players looking for more distance. PING will help you play your best, like they have for Nick O'Hern.

    🏌🏿‍♂️Bonus: Stephanie Lutrell: Titleist Metalwood Development Director

    As regular listeners know, at Talk Birdie to Me we have a wonderful relationship with PING, who Nick O'Hern has played with his entire career, and they're absolute guns. And as Nick always says, there's a heap of golf companies doing great things, and we love hearing their stories. Titleist are one of those, and their balls are used by something like 90% of pros around the world, and Mark has used Titleist gear for many years now. Today in a bonus pod we chat with Stephanie Lutrell, the Metalwood Development Director at Titleist in California. Stephanie tells us about her background and how she got into golf as a career following her playing career as a collegiate golfer. Mark asks about his experience with the new technology that Stephanie has been working with, and the design objectives. She explains to Nick and Mark how they test the clubs with players before they come to market. Nick asks about the GT name and what the GT stands for. Stephanie talks about the iteration process of developing clubs and how long it takes, and if the clubs that you can buy instore are the same as the ones the Titleist pros use. Stephanie talks about the importance of being fitted as regularly as you can to ensure your clubs are working for your game, irrespective of what brand you use this is great advice. A fascinating chat with Stephanie, and whether your preference is PING (like Nick!), or Titliest, Callaway, TaylorMade or another brand - there are tips to pick up from chats like these and things to learn. We know that ultimately the right brand is the one that works for the individual. Thanks to our great partners PING will help you play your best, like they have for Nick O'Hern.

    🏌🏿‍♂️Bonus Nick & Mark Q&A: Bunker Play Challenges, Golf Club Fees, Challenging Par 3's

    We always love feedback and questions, and often we can't get to it all in the normal pod, otherwise it would go for far too long, so we occasionally do a bonus feedback pod - and here's another one! Today we hear from Cameron who is looking to get fitted in Melbourne and is after some advice, which Nick and Mark are all too happy to give. Stewy messaged us about local courses with difficult holes that are quite challenging, wanting some suggestions. Sam has just been to the US and Mexico and was blown away by the cost of playing golf over there, and wants to know why the fees are so expensive. And we have a voicemail from Clint on bunker play, he's had some challenges and outlines what happened and asks the boys for input. Keep the feedback and questions coming, we love it and it really adds to the pod. And as always thanks to our great partners! PING will help you play your best, like they have for Nick O'Hern.
