Mike Clayton

It's always a treat when Mike Clayton joins the pod and that was the case again for episode 151. While The Open will be the focus of most this week it will be, for hundreds or perhaps even thousands of golfers from around the world, merely the focal point of a pilgrimage that could change how they see and feel about the game. Golf in the UK gets so much right from courses to culture and everything in between and we touch on much of it in episode 151.

Ep 145: Women and Golf with Emma Ballard

Good-Good is the golf show for the serious golfer. We celebrate everything great about the game, from course architecture to promoting public golf.

I found the Good Good pod through other TalkinGolf pods and it has quickly become one of my favorite pods. Rod, Adrian, and Derek really draw you in their conversation and make you feel like a fly on the wall. Keep them coming!!

Great and Unique Perspectives in Golf

If you enjoy any of the other works of Rod, Adrian and Derek, you will love the Good-Good Golf Podcast. Everything Rod is involved with is phenomenal. Adrian is interesting and always has good takes on subjects, and Derek is one of the most insightful voices on golf architecture and golf in general. Highly recommended!
