| 4/22/26 |  Ep. 120 Middle-Aged Golfers, Peak Confusion | Send us Fan Mail Steve and Andy are back with something rare… their own golf to talk about—and plenty of it. This episode is a deep dive into the messy middle of improvement. The kind where things are clearly getting better… but not quite showing up on the scorecard yet. Steve shares a solid medal round built on consistency (no doubles), better putting, and a breakthrough with the driver—thanks to a simple grip adjustment that changed everything. It’s the clearest “path forward” he’s seen in ... | 1h 09m 48s | ||||||
| 4/16/26 | Ep. 119 Winning Is Hard (Even for Rory McIlroy). The 2026 Masters Review | Send us Fan Mail The 2026 Masters is done—and another page of the history books has been written. For years, the question was whether Rory McIlroy would ever win a green jacket. Now? He’s gone back-to-back and forced his way into one of the most exclusive clubs in golf history. Steve and Andy break down what’s changed—not just in Rory’s game, but in his mindset. From a dominant opening 36 holes to a shaky weekend that nearly unraveled, this wasn’t a cruise. It was a grind. And that might be t... | 1h 10m 13s | ||||||
| 4/8/26 | Ep. 118 Golf's Fine Line Between Form and Frustration | Send us Fan Mail It’s Masters Week, so naturally the conversation starts with big names, predictions… and that quiet feeling that maybe the game isn’t too far away. The boys start with the March Yearly Championship results, a tightly packed leaderboard, and another appearance from the Dice of Truth that raises just enough questions to keep things interesting. But the heart of the episode is Steve’s latest competition round. And it’s one of those rounds that’s hard to pin down. At times, it lo... | 1h 05m 04s | ||||||
| 3/31/26 | Ep. 117 From ICU to the 18th Green | Send us Fan Mail 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, a... | 1h 16m 16s | ||||||
| 3/16/26 | Ep. 116 The Pilgrims Guide to Training Aids | Send us Fan Mail 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 ... | 1h 22m 14s | ||||||
| 3/2/26 | Ep. 115 Fix the Plane, Fix the Game | Send us Fan Mail The boys are back with a full Duntryleague competition debrief — and this one had everything. A 13-point front nineA double after a flushed punch through a tree tunnelA shank...And then… seven straight pars a few days laterSteve 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 t... | 1h 02m 18s | ||||||

| 2/16/26 | Ep. 113 Rockstar Mindset: What Ed Sheeran Taught Us About Golf | Send us Fan Mail This week Pilgrims, we swap scorecards for stadium lights. After both catching Ed Sheeran live in Sydney (70,000 strong… twice), Steve and Andy ask a simple question: What can a global superstar teach two middle-aged golfers chasing sporting glory? Turns out… a lot. In this unexpected but surprisingly powerful episode, we unpack: 🎯 Growth Mindset in Action – From playing pubs to selling out stadiums, Ed’s long-game perseverance is the blueprint for golf development.🛠️ Loving ... | 44m 43s | ||||||
| 2/11/26 | Ep. 112 Playoffs, Pressure & A Putting Identity Crisis | Send us Fan Mail January’s Yearly Championship round is done — and it was ruthless. For the first time ever, ties are settled with The Die of Truth, and the virtual playoff delivers nerves, chaos, and the usual champagne podcasting! Then things get weird... Steve tests left-handed vs right-handed putting over nine holes — same greens, same reads, alternating hands. Is it a breakthrough? A mid-life putting crisis? Or the start of carrying two putters in competition? There’s discussion of: Pres... | 1h 08m 52s | ||||||
| 2/4/26 | Ep. 111 The Full Nelson | Send us Fan Mail This week Steve takes us through his round of survival in brutal 45 degree heat (That's 113F in US dollars...) and Andy shares an update from the wrist surgeon.

| 1/26/26 | Ep. 110 Hope Is Not a Strategy | Send us Fan Mail What’s the real difference between a plan and a strategy—and why do so many golfers confuse the two? In this episode, Andy and Steve unpack their 2026 golf blueprints, starting with a big-picture strategy and working down into the day-to-day planning that actually drives improvement. They cover health and fitness, practice structure, short-game priorities, competition schedules, and the realities of juggling golf with work, family, injury, and winter conditions.

| 1/19/26 | Ep. 109 The Dice of Truth & a 14-Hole Tease | Send us Fan Mail The Missing Links Golf Show is back for the 2nd episode of 2026, and it doesn’t take long for controversy to strike. Listener feedback questions the Yearly Championship countback rules, sparking a debate that leads to a bold (and slightly ridiculous) proposal: a virtual playoff decided by the Dice of Truth. The Pilgrims are officially invited to help decide how ties should be settled going forward. Steve then breaks down a tough but encouraging round at Royal Dubbo on a hot a... | 1h 02m 43s | ||||||

The episode opens with a blunt wrap-up of Australia’s 4–1 Ashes win, unpacking why Bazball was exposed in Australian conditions, why patience still wins Test cricket, and which players stood up when it mattered. There’s praise for those who adapted, criticism for those who didn’t, and strong opinions on leadership, accountability, and one-gear game plans. From there, it’s back to golf... | 1h 04m 09s | ||||||
| 12/16/25 | Ep. 107 Are We Our Own Missing Link? | Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we turn the spotlight inward. We unpack recent guest feedback that challenged Steve’s mindset — specifically the belief that he may not yet see himself succeeding beyond a high single-figure handicap. While confronting, there’s truth in it, and it opens the door to a deeper conversation about self-belief, ceilings we subconsciously set, and why mindset will be a key development focus moving into 2026. Andy then reflects on a recent round where ongoing swing c... | 1h 07m 56s | ||||||

Steve kicks things off with his experience at The Bathurst Open, a weekend that didn’t go quite to plan on the scoreboard, but revealed plenty of positives. Despite a tough stretch, he stayed competitive, fought through the swings that weren’t quite cooperating, and found real momentum with a significant... | 1h 16m 57s | ||||||
