Tambourine Mountain Golf Club is 30 minutes from the Golden Coast but feels another world away. Up on the Scenic Rim, it's a 9 hole course that rises and falls with the land and is pretty special - in fact, for a while, theirs was the best 2nd hole in the country. Gerry Maloney's the President, a storyteller with a terrific story to tell... one of golf and enlightenment but maybe not the two together. DIVOT YOUTUBE @Divot_au Hosted on Acast.

Val MacMahon is the former owner of my brand new to me Mexican Leather golf bag. At 96 she's just given the game away... though I'd bet she's got a few good swings left in her, she's saving herself for bowls and cards. This is a life in golf, and you'll love her. Hosted on Acast.

Adir Shiffman is many things - writer, entrepreneur, start up lover and the Executive Chairman of Catapult sports.

With a stellar golfing career behind him, Craig Parry has gone full circle. Literally. As a five year old he was drawing golf holes and he's back at, only now with 23 wins around the world under his belt and a lifetime of golfing experience.
