Tom and Pat do a quick review of some recent tournaments with the help of field reports from Aaron Kaminski and Bryan Akers. After that they dive into a long-overdue interview with one of the legends of minigolf Hans Olofsson. We talk about his history with the sport, how he moved into adventure golf and how he has managed to be one of the winningest players ever on that discipline. They then talk about some of the details of being in the minigolf business, how that impact his view of the sport and the intersection of business and tournaments.

Tom and Pat managed to wrangle two of the most infamous names in UK minigolf, though we use the term "wrangle" loosely. Ted "Big Top" McIver and Tim "Ace Man" Davies have been around the world of minigolf for 25+ years and collaborated on the seminal tome "Nutters with Putters". We somehow managed to get them to talk about their history, their views on some courses in the UK, the current state of UK minigolf and drop some hints for coming attractions. This was all intertwined with a plethora of stories from the past and bickering about details the way only two long-time friends can do. What we didn't know is that they hadn't talked to each other in 10 years! There's plenty more surprises dropped like that throughout the interview and we hope to have these two blokes on again sometime.

Tom and Pat hosted a live Puttcast session on Facebook and YouTube on January 15, 2025. For this episode they went away from the normal recapping of events and focused on a variety of a miniature golf culture items, specifically focusing on books in their libraries and games they have played.
