About this listen

 It’s a cheeky nod to the fact that golf is the strangest game on earth. A game in which crocodiles traipse the playing field on a semi-regular basis. A game in which if you don’t keep your own statistics (and everyone else’s) correctly, you’re ejected from the event. A game in which pool noodles are used as practice props, and nobody blinks an eye.

We take a few of these oddities and try to juxtapose them with the beauty of the game to create a world that will hopefully make you chuckle but that may also make you more contemplative.
