    Ep.201: Gareth Raflewski

    This week on PaddyTalks Golf, powered by ForeGolf Custom, I sit down with Gareth Raflewski, PGA professional, elite short game coach, and one of the sharpest performance minds in Irish golf. From early memories of golf in Omagh to committing fully to the game, Gareth’s journey has taken him through competitive golf, elite coaching environments including Augusta and back home to build a performance focused academy centred around one thing: scoring. Known for his deep understanding of the short game, Gareth does not just teach technique. He teaches golfers how to think under pressure. We dive into: ⛳ Gareth’s earliest memory of golf and the compelling moment that made him go all in. 🧠 How elite players actually practise the short game and why most amateur practice does not transfer to the course. 🎯 The biggest myths in chipping and putting, including the truth about “soft hands”. 🔥 What pressure really feels like around the greens and how to train for it. 🎒 The small habits, routines and mindset shifts that save shots quickly without rebuilding your swing. 😂 Quick fire moments, honest reflections and a Candle Lit Dinner Six to round out the show. A thoughtful and insightful conversation about mastery, performance, coaching and how to score better without making golf more complicated. 🎧 Listen now: www.paddytalksgolf.com Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and all major podcast platforms.

    Ep.200: The Reset. We’re Just Getting Started.

    Two hundred episodes. Six years of conversations. Hundreds of hours recorded. Countless guests. Countless stories. Episode 200 is more than a milestone. It is a reset. In this episode, I reflect briefly on the journey so far and introduce the next evolution of PaddyTalks Golf. The show now moves forward with four clear lanes: 🎙 Guest Interviews: Conversations with the people shaping Irish golf. 📈 Beyond Scratch: My personal pursuit of plus two and what everyday golfers can learn from it. 🏛 The Irish Golf Chronicles: Audio documentaries exploring the history, architecture and stories behind Ireland’s great clubs and championships. 🧠 State of the Game: Honest conversations about where golf is heading culturally and competitively. This episode also launches the first instalment of Beyond Scratch: Why This Is Not Really About Scratch. Less than two percent of male golfers are scratch. Yet most golf content is aimed at them. This series is not about chasing elite status. It is about decision making. Course management. Eliminating doubles. And helping the ninety eight percent score better without rebuilding their swing. We explore: • Why most golfers do not need a lesson. They need a plan. • The role of ego in scoring. • What Jack Nicklaus and Scottie Scheffler have in common. • Why better decisions lower scores faster than better swings. • And how this series will evolve moving forward. If you are off twenty, fourteen, six, or chasing plus figures, this conversation applies. Thank you for being part of the first two hundred. Let us build the next two hundred properly. 🎧 New episodes weekly. Tune in to the back catalogue wherever you get your podcasts or at www.paddytalksgolf.com Powered by ForeGolf Custom.

    Ep.199: GrowSport with Mark Ruddy

    This week on PaddyTalks Golf, powered by ForeGolf Custom, I sit down again with Mark Ruddy, a leading voice in golf club management and participation, whose work behind the scenes is shaping how golf clubs think about culture, community and long-term sustainability. Mark previously joined us on Episode 145 to lift the lid on life as a General Manager. Since then, his focus has evolved with the creation of Grow Sport, a project designed to help clubs grow participation, improve culture and build environments where people genuinely feel welcome. From early experiences in golf, to going all in on the sport, to challenging long-held assumptions about what “growing the game” actually means, Mark’s journey offers a rare and honest look at the engine room of Irish golf. We dive into: ⛳ Mark’s earliest memories of golf and the moment he fully committed to working in the game. 🧠 The reality of golf club culture, the signals clubs send (often unintentionally), and why good intentions so often fall short. 🎯 What Grow Sport is, why it exists, who it’s really for, and the real return it offers golf clubs beyond membership numbers. 🔥 Why participation, atmosphere, and belonging matter more than ever for the future of clubs. 🎒 What golf can learn from other sports and what it has overcomplicated. 😂 Quick-fire moments, honest confessions, and a Candle-Lit Dinner Six to round out the show. A real, thoughtful and insightful conversation about golf clubs, culture, participation and how the sport can grow without losing its soul. 🎧 Listen now: www.paddytalksgolf.com Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major podcast platforms.

    Ep 194: Donal Scott

    This week on PaddyTalks Golf, proudly powered by ForeGolf Custom, I’m joined by performance coach Donal Scott for something I’ve never done on the pod before which is a full review of my own golf season. Instead of just looking at scores and stats, Donal walks me through the same process he uses with players at every level: reflecting on performance, identifying blind spots, and separating what really matters from all the noise. We dig into: 📊 Which stats actually tell the truth about your game🧠 How to measure progress in your mental game🏌️‍♂️ Why decision-making and course management cost more shots than you think🔁 The difference between reviewing outcomes vs. reviewing your process🎯 How to turn a season review into a focused plan for the off-seasonDonal also shares a simple framework that any golfer can use to reflect on their year, whether you’re a scratch player chasing trophies or just trying to beat your mates at the weekend. This conversation gave me plenty of home truths (😅) but also a clear plan to move forward. I think you’ll find loads here to apply to your own game. For all back episodes and more, check out www.PaddyTalksGolf.com The show is proudly powered by ForeGolf Custom, the award-winning team who build clubs made just for you.
