What it’s like to hit a 452-yard drive (and what now for LIV?)
Wednesday Oct 25, 2023
Wednesday Oct 25, 2023
Michael, Bryce and Alex are joined on this week’s episode by bunkered’s gear editor James Tait, who’s fresh from his third-place finish at last week’s World Long Drive Championship.
James went toe-to-toe with some of the biggest-hitters in the game – including Kyle Berkshire and defending champ Martin Borgmeier – and gave them all a run for their money, posting the longest drive of the week... a 452-yard monster!
James talks us through the week, gives us the lowdown on his equipment (the loft on his driver is ridiculous), and explains how he preps for such an event. It’s a brilliant chat.
Elsewhere, the guys reflect on LIV’s first full season and discuss what they got right, what they got wrong, and which players they might be targeting during the off-season.
As well as that, there are tributes to Ivor Robson and Kevin McAlpine.

The LIV Golf / OWGR fiasco
Wednesday Oct 11, 2023
Wednesday Oct 11, 2023
So that’s that, then. The OWGR has decided that it’s not going to give world ranking points to LIV Golf... but is that the right call or a monumental blunder?
Michael McEwan and Alex Perry discuss that on today’s episode of The bunkered Podcast.
On the subject of LIV, golf writer Alan Shipnuck joins us for a chat about his new book “LIV and Let Die: The Inside Story of the War between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf”. His insights are genuinely fascinating.
There’s also reaction to the latest in the Patrick Cantlay / ‘Hat-gate’ saga, as well as some legitimate excitement at new videos of Tiger Woods hitting shots.
Plus, how will Lexi Thompson get on when she takes on the men of the PGA Tour this week and who would win a golf ‘Royal Rumble’? The guys make their predictions.

Saturday Sep 30, 2023
Well, well, well.
The stage is set for a rip-snorter of a final day in the 2023 Ryder Cup at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club.
Europe maintains a five-point lead going into Sunday’s decisive singles session but the momentum might be with the United States following their 3-1 Saturday afternoon fourballs.
HOWEVER!
The whole thing has been overshadowed by an extraordinary car park kerfuffle involving Rory McIlroy and Patrick ‘No Hat’ Cantlay’s caddie Joe LaCava.
Michael and Alex were about to hit record on today’s Ryder Cup Commute when that all kicked off and THIS is their unfiltered, unedited, live reactions to it, as well as a preview of what’s sure to be an epic Sunday.
