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.

This one came up in my social feed. Haven't listened to it yet, but interesting angle.

Golf Subpar is great. It's my go-to podcast for when my most recent Audible book is finished before I get my next credit.

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.

    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
