This week is bigger than golf.

Steve shares a deeply personal update about his son’s recent health crisis and new diagnosis, how quickly life can flip, and the emotional rollercoaster of navigating hospitals, uncertainty, and a whole new normal. It’s a raw reminder that golf matters — but family matters more.

From there, the boys turn back to the fairways.

Andy breaks down his competitive round:

• A rollercoaster 77 (35 points)
• Two birdies, two doubles, and plenty of lessons
• A big putting mindset shift — moving from mechanical focus to outcome-based intent
• Why a change in focus unlocked his best strokes on the greens in ages

The conversation also dives into:

• GPS yardage drama and why rangefinders still matter
• A look ahead to the Duntry Seniors
• Why expectations, headspace and enjoyment matter more than ever
• The value of changing your putting focus — even if just for a round

This one is part life perspective, part performance reflection, and part honest, relatable golf chat.

This week on The Missing Links Golf Show, Steve and Andy kick things off with the February results of the Missing Links Yearly Championship, including a dramatic virtual playoff and another strong month of scoring from the Pilgrims.

There’s also an unforgettable story from the world of golf officiating — featuring a hamstring injury sustained while refereeing the NSW Senior Amateur. Proof that golf can still be a dangerous sport!

Then the episode dives into a deep discussion on golf training aids. After testing a wide range of gadgets over the years, Steve and Andy break down what they actually use in their practice — and what might not be worth your money.

They cover:

• Simple fundamentals like alignment rods and grip trainers
• Practice tools including divot boards, foot spray, and putting mirrors
• Swing aids designed to improve connection and swing plane
• The benefits of launch monitors and shot tracking systems
• Apps like Tour Tempo and Golf Swing Replay
• And one training aid that might be the worst purchase ever made

If you’ve ever wondered which training aids actually help your game — and which ones are just clever marketing — this episode is packed with insights.

The boys are back with a full Duntryleague competition debrief — and this one had everything.

• A 13-point front nine
• A double after a flushed punch through a tree tunnel
• A shank...
• And then… seven straight pars a few days later

Steve takes us inside a rollercoaster Stableford round at Duntryleague in Orange, including one of the best (and one of the worst) shots of his golfing life. But the real breakthrough came afterwards in the High Performance Centre.

After struggling with a two-way miss off the tee, video revealed the culprit:
👉 A takeaway getting whipped too far inside
👉 A flat backswing
👉 A steep throw in transition

One small swing-plane fix later… fairways found and seven consecutive pars.

The episode dives into:

• Why driver confidence disappears so quickly
• The importance of regular video check-ups
• How swing plane flaws can affect both driver AND wedges
• Why consistency beats flashes of brilliance
• Prep for the Duntry Seniors
• A new training aid incoming (TRS Slider)

There’s promise in the game. Now it’s about making it repeatable.

Bring on the Duntry Seniors.
