Welcome to another feedback pod, these are the episode where you control the topics and we read out your questions and feedback (good and bad)!
We start with a chat about Mark's comments last week that the Rory shot on 5 was the greatest shot ever made. Some wolfpackers have a different view - we won't read them out today, but we'll wait until Nick is back in the studio next week (he's in Cathedral for the school holidays) and we will do a bonus pod on 'the greatest shot ever made in golf'. Fun.
Mark has sent in a pic of a 59 shot by Elvis Smylie at Southport on the Gold Coast, and would like Mark Allen to rate it. Mark does, and is brutal.
Sam's home course has fast greens and he struggles when he plays a course with slow greens...and asks for some tips.
Dale has written in with some 'useless information' (his words not ours) and both pieces are very good. One of Dale's points leads to a chat about young gun Jeffrey Guan and how he is going.
Voicemail sound goes off, and it's a question from wolfpacker Fraser who played golf as a kid, went away, is back now and looking for some tips on how to improve.
Laurie from Indonesia has a comment and question about Justin Rose at The Masters.
Phil has a question about Max Homa and which of all his changes recently has had the most influence.
A lovely message from wolfpacker Niall from Ireland who likes the 'bluntness' that Nick and Mark have when discussing issues.
And finally a comment from Wayne who feels that some of the big names in world golf are off their game during the first couple of months of 2025.
Mark asks Nick if he feels, as contracts come to an end, that any LIV players will want to come back to the PGA, and if he feels any big names from the PGA will leave for LIV.
Keep the questions coming, and remember if you want any feedback on your swing, putting, chipping - anything - send us a video and we'll have a look at it on the show.

Today, Mark is in studio at Titleist and FootJoy HQ, Nick is at Cathedral in Central Victoria. We start the show with Nick mentioning that his wife Alana has just had her best round ever. He is very proud!
We talk about the RBC Heritage Tournament on Hilton Head. Nick says that Harbourtown, which he played many times, was his favourite course on the PGA Tour and explains why. He also says that it has one of the worst driving ranges on tour. Mark loves the trees, and goes into a tirade about golf course designers, golf course committees, and anyone in general who cuts down beautiful trees and replaces them with inappropriate ones on golf courses. We discuss JT's win, and his comments about asking for Xander Schauffele's help with his putting (here). Leads to a chat about 'home base'. Nick explains what his home base was, Mark talks to his, and we discuss Scottie Schefflers. Nick explains how Cam Smith's mirror works for him.
A voicemail: a wolfpacker heard Nick's Top 5 'unwatchable' players a couple of weeks back, and feels that he missed an obvious one. Mark follows Stats Guru Lou Stagner on Twitter (here) and lists some stats that Lou posted on Rory's Masters performance. Staggering. During the Turn Nick casually drops a massive statement about Tommy Fleetwood, Mark disagrees. We discuss. But there is one thing about Tommy Fleetwood that Nick and Mark agree on which Mark says needs to 'stop immediately'.
A Top 5 (or is it 6?) from Nick, suggested by Wolfpack member Skyla. Top 5 Mulligans. Nick loves it and lists his. Mark tells a story about Tour Pro Scott Hoch at a dinner in Auckland where things took a bad turn when Scott criticised the calamari.
Feedback. Two main themes: Marks comments that Rory made the greatest shot ever on 15 at The Masters, which we'll come back to and do a bonus pod on. And the '4 sackable offences' chat. Feedback was split, most very passionate. We read out some of each. And Mark wants to hear from anyone who was at The Masters, about what it was like being there.
More drama with PING Global results. Mark has gone rogue. This won't end well. And a masterclass from Mark to finish the show on 'starting' your golf swing.

We're getting plenty of feedback and questions coming in, sometimes we take a bit of time to get to them, but we're trying to work through them all as we can. Today on the pod we start by talking about a photo Nick shared on his instagram page - see it here - it's a great pic of Nick's caddy Wilbur at Augusta waiting for Nick.
Speaking of caddies, Mark was lined up this week by one of his former caddies who felt Mark was being a bit harsh on Rory McIlroy's caddy Harry Diamond, and Mark goes on to tell a story about how he nearly killed his caddy driving to Queensland.
Plenty of feedback on the member/guest fee conversation, some different perspectives. And there is a short, yet brutal, whack for Nick and Mark from a wolfpacker called Dougie who is a Monty fan. And back onto caddies, former tour caddy Eddie Munster also wrote in about Monty.
Nick gives two reasons why The Masters is the worlds greatest golf tournament, and Mark gives some feedback to FootJoy.
We have a video sent in by wolfpacker Martin of his mate Steve who uses a putter, perhaps not exactly how it was intended....but seemingly successfully. The vision confuses Nick and Mark, if you watch it when the YouTube vodcast comes out, you'll see why...it is very unusual.
And Nick and Mark discuss Rory's putting and make the statement that if he can address some putting issues, it is scary how good he will be, Nick describes the potential of Rory as 'domination'.
And we finish with some fantastic news about a member at Lake Karrinyup who has achieved something quite special.

The MastersRory McIlroygolfbreathtaking dramagreatest shot in golf historyHarry the caddyJustin RoseTop 5 Mens Major Tournaments
Today's podcast is all about The Masters and the extraordinary tournament we watched. And of course, we start with Rory who was clearly already an incredible player, but is now a legend.
Mark describes what we saw as 'breathtaking drama', and Nick and Mark just sit and chat about the tournament. We have no runsheet or plan for todays show, aside from to debrief on The Masters and talk about what we all saw in one of the great tournaments, and particularly on the final day, one of golfs great days.
Nick describes what we saw from Rory as 'resilience', and admired how he continually would come back and never give up. Nick and Mark discuss a number of the holes, the shots, the ebb and flow moments. We discuss how Rory would have been feeling at those moments where it didn't go his way, and how he managed to come back every time.
And on Rory's caddy Harry. Mark describes Harry as a 'good caddy', Nick says Rory needs a 'great caddy', and says that with a better caddy, Rory wins by 6 shots. Mark lists what he refers to as Harrys 'sackable offences during The Masters'.
Nick raises the Monday Q Twitter page and how he loved following it during the tournament. He recommends that if you're not following it, get on board!
Rory's shot on the 15th in the final round. Nick calls it the 'sexiest shot in golf'. Mark makes the claim that given the circumstances, the pressure, what was on the line, it was the greatest shot ever hit in golf.
We discuss Justin Rose's performance, which obviously is overshadowed by Rory, however was brilliant. Nick and Mark full of admiration for Justin.
Mark loved the commentary and was so pleased it was the traditional commentators.
We discuss the footage of Rory in the Champions Locker Room for the first time. Beautiful to watch.
Nick asks Mark how Rory will go over the next few tournaments, we discuss what they are and how he is placed.
Nick says the round of the tournament was from Nick Dunlap, and explains why.
A great Top 5 from Mark today, he lists what he feels are the Top 5 Mens Major Tournaments in the history of golf. How does the 2025 Masters rank?
In the PING Global results, Nick says that Rory must now be considered the greatest ever European player. Mark agrees.

Nick O'Hern and Mark Allen have worn FootJoy their entire career, and given we do the pod from FootJoy and Titleist HQ we thought we'd grab the FootJoy Product Manager for Australia & New Zealand, Chris Patterson, to have a chinwag about golf shoes generally, trends, and some of what they've got coming.
We discussed exactly what Chris does at FootJoy, and what he looks for when decided what to range for these markets. Chris talks about current trends in golf shoes, both for 'normal' golfers and Tour Pros. He runs us through some of the current range, and gives a sneak peak at a shoe coming out later in 2025....Nick and Mark are VERY excited for it.
Mark asks what the key differences are between a normal shoe and a golf shoe, and why it is important. Nick asks how golf shoes have changed over the years. Is a shoe fitting beneficial? Clearly for tour pros it makes sense, but what about us normies? Chris talks to that.
Mark is curious as to whether ball speed can be influenced by your golf shows, and Chris tells us about Justin Thomas and Cam Young and what has happened to their ball speed since changing shoes. Extraordinary.
Nick and Mark both love the MyJoy concept and Nick asks what are some of the craziest things Chris has seen?
A fascinating chat with Chris, the FootJoy Product Manager, and a great reminder of why FootJoy are the number one shoe (and glove) in golf.
