## Resource

WE'RE BACK with a new episode of Talk Birdie To Me This week we're joined by broadcaster and proud Scotsman, Gordon Smart. 30 minutes of chat about learning to grip a club with his grandad, the perfect golf handicap (spoiler: he agrees with us) and quite possibly the most horrendous first tee experience ever told on this show, hungover at Sunningdale, following Geoff Hurst, Jimmy Tarbuck and Lee Sharpe. 😳 We also hear how golf got him through losing his voice and his job in lockdown, playing the Old Course in reverse (something Tiger's never done), his run-in with Sean Connery at a urinal 🍺 and his DREAM four ball. 👀 Gordon's Article - https://soundergolf.com/blogs/journal/silence-in-a-special-place MASSIVE thanks to our friends at GOLF NOW for helping make this series happen and bringing it to the masses.
