Enjoyed going back and forth with Patrick Cantlay on the proposed Model Local Rule from the USGA/R&A. Presented by Cisco. Full discussion available here:

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco I enjoyed how opionated he was, but I disagreed with most of them. I did get a chuckle when he said “anyone can go to LACC and play the same tees as us” 😂 So how do I book that?

He sounded like a robot. About as exciting as watching him shuffle his feet 775 times before each putt #SnoozeFest

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco Really good interview Soly, respected Patrick sticking to his guns but he had some bad takes. Nothing stopping regular Joes from using the MLR ball if they want the ‘pro’ experience. This ball isn’t robbing amateurs of anything.

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco He’s an awesome interview. Direct, candid, concise. Great stuff!

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco Patrick stuck to his guns even while you were trying so hard to lead him. I agree with him - except Joe 15 cap is not playing the same gear! Show idea: have Titleist build a Tour bag and film a round with Joe15. 70gTX, likely tipped. Go all the way back. 130gX iron shafts too. 😂

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco Refreshing to have a guest with an opposing point of view on the podcast.

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco Great interview and loved his straightforward opinions.

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco Although I didn’t agree with a lot of his opinions, I did like that he challenged the USGAs future forecasting. We’re already seeing guys start backing off the speed quest because it’s too unpredictable

@patrick_cantlay @Cisco Cantlay hit the nail on the head. This MLR does nor bring shot value or shot shaping back. It does not make it harder to hit it long. It does not achieve any of the goals stated. It will only make golfers work harder on distance to eliminate the rollback loss, takes 10 years max.
