NEEDS FILLING

Episode 60 is here and this is a really important one.

Joined by Barry Waearing (fndgolfer), current Scottish Open champion for golfers with disabilities, we dive into a conversation that goes far beyond golf.

Barry lives with FND often described as “the most common uncommon condition” and while he does incredible work raising awareness everywhere he goes, this episode also reminds you that he is far more than his condition. He’s a brilliant golfer, a genuine competitor, and an even better person.

We start with his incredible Scottish Open victory before getting into some deeper conversations around FND. Barry was incredibly open and honest answering questions, helping normalise discussions around conditions people may not fully understand.

We talk about:

His golf journey and Scottish Open win

The daily physical and mental struggles of living with FND

What golf can do for mental health and routine

What needs to change in golf to create more competitive opportunities for disabled golfers

WITB and golf ball chat

The most important thing golfers should practice

The future of golf simulators

And of course, a round of This or That

Honestly, this was one of the most eye-opening and enjoyable conversations I’ve had on the podcast.

Malissa rejoins me to talk about everything she’s been achieving in her mission to get more women into golf and while she might not shout about it herself… I absolutely will.

Everything she’s been building and achieving in women’s golf

The recent Secret Society event hosted by Golf By Kate at Carden Park

Has she finally conquered her nemesis hole?

The flag sponsorship

Women’s coaching classes and growing the game

Courses she wants to play

Episode 56 is here slightly later than planned, but definitely worth the wait.

I’ve been wanting to get Matt on for a while now, especially after following his content during my own fat loss phase and becoming genuinely interested in golf-specific training (something I still need to properly commit to ).

We get into:

How Matt got into golf

His journey into fitness and how that evolved into specialising in golf performance training

Why this type of training is becoming more important for golfers of all levels

Of course, we also cover:

His first set of clubs and what’s in the bag now

Where he’s based and why he made the move north

A round of This or That to finish

It’s a really insightful episode, especially if you’ve ever thought about improving your game through fitness and if it sparks your interest, definitely reach out to Matt and have a chat.

Massive thanks to Matt for jumping on during what is usually kids’ bedtime commitment to the pod

Looking forward to getting a round in soon… and maybe even letting him analyse just how badly my body moves

From a less-than-ideal start in football to a later route into golf, Craig’s journey to becoming a PGA professional is anything but typical and that’s exactly what makes this such a great listen.

Come hear Craig talk me through his unusual path into the game, how his goal was always to become a teaching pro, and how he’s now living that ambition every day.

We get into:

His route into coaching and life as a PGA pro

WITB — including the brand deal with the company that should apparently never be mentioned

Why everyone should seriously consider a 7 wood

The range he works from and what day-to-day coaching looks like

There’s also plenty of opinion in this one:

A proper rant about outdated club rules around ladies and juniors

Golf attire grievances

Why golf still feels behind the times in some areas

The rise of online coaching platforms like Skillest

And of course, we finish with This or That and plenty more chat along the way.

A brilliant conversation and one that definitely left me looking forward to getting a match arranged with Craig this summer.

Out Here Chasing Pars – Episode 53 ft. the founders of Hydra Caddie — Ross & Harrison

Episode 53 is here, and this week I’m joined by Ross and Harrison, the childhood friends behind Hydra Caddie a brand built around golf, health, and hydration that’s already making a serious impression.

These two have shared plenty over the years, junior golf, football, nights out, and now building a business together. Back in the golf world, they’ve created a product that genuinely stands out. I’ve tried the samples myself, thought they tasted excellent, and it definitely encouraged me to order more.

We get into:

⛳ Their golf journeys from junior golf through the younger years

👜 First clubs, current bags, fittings, and of course a proper WITB chat

🏠 Their home course

😅 Harrison’s absolute fear of wedges and the hole that gives him the most nightmares

We also spend plenty of time talking about what makes Hydra Caddie different:

💧 Why hydration matters more than most golfers realise

🏌️ Whether pro shops are missing a trick by not leaning into products like this

🚀 Their plans for the future and where they want to take the company

📈 How long it took to launch and how well it’s already being received especially with very little paid advertising, which says a lot about the product itself

As always, we wrap things up with a round of This or That and there’s plenty of good chat in between.

Make sure you check out the website, support the lads, and give them a follow across social media and let them know I sent you 👏

And if you enjoy the episode, please like, share, subscribe, and tell a friend it all helps grow the podcast more than you know.
