“I’m a fan of several golf podcasts — NLU, the Chipping Forecast, Rick Shiels, RGC — and have samples all of them. Started listening after Full Swing revealed that Rory is a listener, and honestly — didn’t like it at first. But listened to a couple of more looking for why Rory was listened,
And now I can’t miss a pod. Brendan is a tremendous host — organizing what appears to be a chaotic mess into a subtly well-organized series of funny but incredibly insightful discussions of all things PGA Tour and majors-related, and hilarious running gags and bits. Andy is, I have come to realize, the singular best analyst of golf today. They both have encyclopedic knowledge of courses the world over and golf architecture— and it’s amazing how much better you understand the game after learning about all of the details that you didn’t pay attention to before, but that make golf the game it is with challenges changing from course to course.
Really couldn’t recommend The Shotgun Start and the related Fried Egg Golf podcast (and Get a Grip) more highly. Just give it a chance even if you don’t love it at first — you’ll be glad that you did.”
