About this Episode

This is a variety pack-type show including a myriad of topics that we work our way into. It all gets started with a talk about the appearance of several new drivers on the USGA and R&A conforming clubs list, what that means, and does it matter. That includes our thoughts on how people react so strongly to these preliminary photos.

We catch you up on some news from the Canadian amateur and pro golf scene, including the PGA TOUR, LPGA Tour, Q-School, and the G4D TOUR. The latter includes a dream come true for not a player, but a parent of a player.

In the "memory lane" part of the show we discuss a newspaper article from 1985 on the best golf holes in Eastern Ontario, how we may rekindle gathering opinions about that from our community in the modern era, and we share one hole that might make the list for each of us.

On the Back Nine, we have an extensive interview with Blair Harris of the Quinte Kingston Intersectional Matches about the history, development, and future of that event and how it is creating greater camaraderie among golfers of that region.
