No Laying up and the Shotgun Start are two of my favorites. I also like sub-par and get a grip.

Chasing Scratch is hilarious. 2 guys in their 30s trying to get to scratch (in a year)....less about golf, more about them "being headcases" (their words). Their movie and steroid era baseball references are incredible. Definite entertainment value here.

I used to listen to Chasing Scratch. TBH - I actually found their golf content to be really bad. But you're right they were entertaining. 

The only one I still listen to is No Putts Given. I enjoy when new equipment comes out. (Like I always say. I like shiny things.) NPG tends to have pretty early reviews on the stuff coming out. So, I enjoy that. MGS has slipped a lot over the years, but I can still find enough there that I like to make it worth a listen. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

I agree. You can tell they don't know tons about the game. You can also tell that if they were get to scratch, it wouldn't be a true scratch. I am sure that there are some gimmies on under 2' putts. My favorite part is always the dramatic reading of the scorecard, though, which is golf related. Definitely more for entertainment than knowledge. Their twitter is hilarious, and I have a buddy who is also a listener, so when we get out on the course, there are some "COME ON RICK"s thrown around.

Ding ding ding. 😉

They didn't know nine-hole scores counted for a handicap until late in season 2, IIRC. 🙂

I love the No Laying Up guys the podcasts are alright but their YouTube series are phenomenal highly recommend Tourist Sauce and Wild World of Golf.

I also don't mind the No Putts Given group but they can be a little insufferable at times. 

I don't know if they qualify as a podcast but I truly enjoy the TXG guys a lot of tech nerd talk where a lot of the time it's over my head but I'm trying to learn and I like Matty and Ian.

All of these for me. Absolutely love all of TXG's videos, but they have some good podcasts they have posted, as well.

Yup. Episode was called "loopholes". Not really a loophole though lol

I just started listening to Andrew Jensen's "On the Number" which is from a McKenzie Tour (Canadian) and mini-tour perspective. I have seen a lot of his YouTube content and he just started his podcast.

Hello! I’ve started to listen to the GolfIQ podcast which is an instructional podcast which is really interesting.  Wondering what other golf / golf related podcasts people are listening to.

    • No way that ball doesn’t go in with the flag stick out. That’s just a rare one there.
    • I started off playing the Kirkland balls this year.  I haven't seen scuffing any different than any other tour ball.  But I usually start with a new ball every round and retire the used ball to the practice pile.  I've gone through maybe two dozen balls, losing some and retiring some.  But last round I played a TP5 and now seriously having second thoughts on the Kirkland ball.  I think the Kirk's perform well in a simulator but in real life they just don't fly as far, launch lower, and have too much spin on the driver (for me).  Sure you can spin the crap out of them with a wedge.  But there must be a difference in the aerodynamics.  With the TP5 I was hitting my drives 10 to 20+ yards further on average and much higher launch (hole by hole vs last time I played the same course).  But that was just one round so who knows (e.g. temperature, wind, fairway firmness, etc).  But definitely a difference off the driver.  5 wood carry was 15 yards further.   You can look at data on MyGolfSpy at the differences: https://public.tableau.com/app/profile/golfspy.t/viz/MyGolfSpy2021GolfBallTest/2021GolfBallData But do they do these tests by actually hitting balls into a real range and measuring where they land?  I doubt it.  Simulator tests assume an aero profile given the launch and spin.   So is kirkland a good value, absolutely especially if you lose balls every round.  But is there something left on the table?  Probably.  Maybe not 20 yards of driver, but my gut says it's not exactly optimal for me.  So i got a box of TP5's and am going to test out the difference next couple rounds.
