What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Really enjoyable perspective on golf from Australia featuring former pro Nick O’Hern. O’Hern, one of those wiley pros who competed on smarts and skills, brings depth in the game married with decades of experience in Europe and the US which he shares with commentary on the events of the day and a weekly technique tip. It’s punchy and witty and best of all from outside the US golf bubble. I really appreciate the window into Australian golf as well, as the differences in how the game fits into the culture has expanded my (US) understanding of what the game is and can be. Always a good listen.
