  <description>Our hosts kick start the episode by recapping the the AMA's Coziest Open and admiring the fortunate scheduling that had the winner, Matt Roalstad, on our previous episode.  They then spend some time talking about the most recent Popstroke event and where that schedule of events is heading before celebrating some putting from Down Under and friends of the pod achievements in the Oceania Minigolf Open. It's a quick look ahead after that as they try to dive as deep as they can into the planned World Putting League event at the end of February. The episode wraps up with Pat reading a letter he received from the USPMGA and the guys giving their opinions about that, the impact to members and the overall state of the organization. 
Key Points from the episode:
Coziest Open (2:25)
Popstroke Fort Myers (9:57)
Oceania Minigolf Open (23:05)
World Putting League (24:52)
USPMGA Letter (30:50)
