    Ep.205: Oisín Keniry | What It Takes to Shoot Golf at the Highest Level

    Welcome back to PaddyTalks Golf, powered by ForeGolf Custom. This week I sat down with someone whose work you've almost certainly seen, even if you didn't know his name at the time. Oisín Keniry is one of Ireland's finest sports photographers. Coming through the ranks, Oisín has since built a serious freelance career shooting golf at the very highest level. His images carry R&A and image credits, appear in national newspapers and international publications, and if you've ever stopped on a photograph from The Open, the Irish Open or an Amateur Championship and thought that's a serious shot, there's a very good chance Oisín was behind the camera. But beyond the credentials, this is a conversation about craft, about passion and about what it really takes to build a career doing what you love. In this episode we get into: 📸 How Oisín got into sports photography and found his way ⛳ What it's like shooting golf at the very top level and what separates it from every other sport 🏆 The moments and shots that have stayed with him 🎯 The realities of going freelance and why he wouldn't have it any other way 📷 How he thinks about a shot before he even raises the camera 🇮🇪 His love for Irish golf and what he sees through the viewfinder that most of us miss from the fairway 🔥 What actually makes a great golf photograph A note on this one. It was recorded way back at the tail end of 2024 and took a while to get out the door after a bit of audio corruption crept in. But Oisín's story is as valid today as the day we sat down and I'm really glad we got it out. Some conversations are worth the wait.

    Ep.204: YouTube Golf vs The PGA Tour | State of the Game

    This week on PaddyTalks Golf, powered by ForeGolf Custom, I’m joined by Andrew McCormack for another State of the Game deep dive as we tackle one of the biggest questions in modern golf: Is Creator Golf Replacing Traditional Golf? From Rick Shiels and Good Good to Bob Does Sports and Grant Horvat, creator-led golf has become a major force in the game, attracting millions of viewers and changing how golfers consume content. At the same time, many golfers admit they are watching less live Tour coverage than ever before. In this episode, Andrew and I break down whether creator golf is genuinely replacing traditional tournament golf, or whether it is simply offering something different that modern audiences now prefer. We discuss the rise of YouTube golf, personality versus performance, whether elite golf is losing relevance, what this means for aspiring players, and how this shift is already being felt in Ireland. A relaxed, honest conversation about where golf is heading and whether the game is changing faster than many realise.

    Ep.201: What Elite Golfers Do Differently (That You Don’t See) | 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: Why Scratch Golf Isn’t the Goal (And What Actually Is)

    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: Inside the Future of Golf Clubs: Culture, Growth & Reality | 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 198: Lessons From Doing It the Hard Way in Golf | Ryan Gribben

    This week on PaddyTalks Golf, powered by ForeGolf Custom, I sit down with Ryan Gribben, one of Ireland’s most exciting young PGA professionals and coaches, whose passion for performance, short game mastery and real-world coaching has made him one of the most respected emerging voices in Irish golf. From junior golf roots and elite amateur competition, to committing to the PGA pathway, to being recognised as Top Year 3 Trainee in the PGA in Ireland programme, Ryan’s journey is one of discipline, curiosity and relentless pursuit of improvement — both as a player and a mentor. We dive into: ⛳ Ryan’s early days in golf, his competitive instincts, and the moments that shaped his playing career. 🧠 Why he chose the PGA route, what life as a trainee is really like, and what it meant to be recognised as a top performer in the programme. 🎯 His approach to coaching, especially around the short game, and what most golfers are getting completely wrong inside 50 yards. 🔥 What pressure really feels like in tournament golf. 🎒 The routines, practice habits and small details that separate good golfers from great ones. 😂 Quick-fire moments, confessions, and the stories that never make it onto Instagram. A real, honest and insightful conversation about golf, growth, coaching, and how to score better without making the game complicated. 🎧 Listen now: www.paddytalksgolf.com Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major podcast platforms.
