This week, join Nick and Mark as they talk about some of the most infamous shots at one of the best courses in the world. We're spotlighting Bryson DeChambeau's jaw-dropping performance at the Ryder Cup, specifically his monstrous tee shot on hole five—a 603-yard par-5—that landed just 70 yards from the pin. Can you imagine carrying over water and bunkers with such precision? We'll break down the physical feasibility and risk versus reward of such daring plays.
But that's not all! We discuss memorable moments at Whistling Straits, reminisce about iconic shots from Jordan Spieth, and revisit John Daly's infamous frustration on the par-three seventh hole. Plus, you'll hear about the legendary 18th-hole incident involving Dustin Johnson and the much-debated "waste bunker" rules.

In this episode, we tee off with insightful conversations and a hearty dose of humor. Nick admits to sometimes giving questionable advice but confesses to quickly catching his mistakes. This sparks a whimsical debate, leading Mark to humorously campaign for outlawing overused golfing phrases like, "I didn't come all this way to lay up."
We also discuss players' on-course decisions and the emotional maturity involved in choosing between laying up or taking that high-risk shot. Have you ever wondered about golfing in the rain or braving the cold? We’ve got you covered! Mark and Nick have a fun and flexible climate policy for golfers—think "snow checks" and no scoring when the wind is above 30 mph.
But that's not all! In the spirit of election day, Mark formalizes his golf leadership dream team, appointing Nick as his "vice president" and cleverly aligning golf club roles with political offices. From handling heavy bags to managing swamped greens, discover how running a golf club isn’t all that different from running a nation. Plus, get our take on quirky golf rules and etiquette that should change, like imposing classes for slow players or nixing 14-slot bags for good.
Finally, we wrap up with “Heavy Baggage," a heartwarming new segment about supporting others. Listen as Nick shares a Halloween costume story and Mark recounts a moment of encouragement, reminding us that the greens are more than just a place to play—they’re a community.
So grab your preferred beverage, settle into your favorite chair, and let’s hit the fairways with this insightful, laughter-filled episode of Caddie Tales. The golf course awaits!
