  • UPDATED WEEKLY

The Goat Track is a podcast for the golf-obsessed - especially those with an eye on Africa. We dive into the game and all its glorious side quests: course reviews, wild tour ideas, clubhouse banter, and an often in-depth look at the ups and downs of our own deeply average games. It’s golf, but not always as you know it.

    Episode 81: RIP Stingers, Stellies and the SA Player Draft for 2026

    In Episode 81, we dive into the Stingers rebrand. Did they workshop the new name? T has some concerns with that and the exact same roster returning, we ask the uncomfortable question: Is this franchise evolving, or is it stuck as an "Old Boys Club" that prioritizes vibes over victory? The concern doesn't stop there. We also tackle the news of Stellenbosch Golf Club hosting the SA Open. It’s a nice venue, sure—but is it actually the right test for a modern National Open with a Masters berth on the line? We discuss whether the course has the teeth for today's pros or if this is another "safe" choice that misses the mark? Lastly we draft teams of SA Players from different categories and see who can build the 2026 squad. Who can lock down the big guns Burmy and Aldrich?

    Episode 77: ON COURSE - The Top 5 KZN Par 3s

    TBag and JDV go deep on the best par-3s in KZN, comparing notes from some of the province’s most iconic tracks. From the coastal beauty of Southbroom, Wild Coast, Durban, Umkho and Princes Grant, to the inland standouts at Gowrie, Champagne Sports, and Cotswold Downs, they unpack what elevates a par-3 from “good” to unforgettable. Along the way, they chat about why KZN seems to produce these holes in abundance—hint: the landscape does a lot of the heavy lifting—and reveal their final, no-debate-allowed top 5. A fun, local episode celebrating the province’s finest one-shotters.

The guys debate who could step in and what direction the franchise really needs to take. Expect a few honest takes, a couple of digs, and more than one bold prediction. To wrap it up, the lads get personal with their own rugby highlights from years gone by.

    Episode 74: My October Teacher

    Much like the famed documentary, this episode explores alot and not much. In My October Teacher, we dive into the strange lessons of October -  from Hoff’s tales of questionable golf lessons to Ryder Cup takeaways, South Africa’s success at the World Amateur Team Champs, and the KZN Sunshine Tour swing. We also check in on our own golf goals (some thriving, others begging for a mulligan) and wrap up the 2025 Major Goat comp. And because we love a good idea almost as much as a bad one, we announce our first-ever Goat Track event: The Mashters — a 9-hole social gathering in KZN.
