On Tuesday, the USGA and R&A announced a Model Local Rule (MLR) that, if adopted, would reduce the flight of the golf ball in high-level tournaments. This is a historic move that deserves the mega-pod treatment. To kick things off, Andy and Garrett discuss the basics of the MLR and why the governing bodies have gone this route in tackling the distance issue

Then Andy brings on a series of guests: golf architect Tom Doak to explore the impact that the MLR might have on golf course design

former PGA Tour pro Roberto Castro to talk about the change from a player's perspective

and analytics whiz Joseph LaMagna to explore the effects that rollback could have on course management and strategy at the elite competitive level
