The Missing Links Golf Show
Two guys in their early 50’s with plenty of life experience and big dreams embark on a quest to rekindle forgotten sporting glory by taking on the NSW Amateur Senior Golf Championship. Join us on the journey to improve our golf game and see if we can apply the lessons learned on the course to our lives off the course, and (more importantly) vice versa

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.
