  • Rypgolf episode?

    After listening the the 4 part series and attempting to find the website and app for training discussed it doesn’t exist? Would have been nice to get more information on how to find it since the episodes purposefully leave the actual how to fix your swing out

  • Get to the point

    Love the Luke 10 min clips but the hour long equipment shows are so bad. You waste so much time talking about nothing-horses for my daughter, machines that kick soccer balls blah blah blah. It could be so good but the time wasting and the arrogance of “uncle gene” is nauseating. Please just get to the titleist t series iron comparison

  • Separate the Equipment Show

    This podcast with LKD is great and every episode teaches me something new. I also do not like having an hour long episode about equipment at all. Would be 5 stars without the equipment podcast mixed in.

  • Politics?

    Shouldn’t ever hear anything about politics in a golf podcast. Hard pass.
