Pidge… revenge is coming, sir!  We sat down for over an hour and did what two blokes do best… talked absolute rubbish about golf!  There was no real plan, no strict agenda and no direction.

Season 2 Episode 30 - Matt Branton Coaching

1 hr 15 min

EPISODE 69 Matt Branton Coaching Get Fitter, Faster & Stronger For Golf!  Matt Branton joins me on Chasing Pars for the second time, but this episode is a little different. This time, I actually took on Matt’s coaching plan to see if I would notice a difference in my own golf and I’m happy to say I definitely have. We dive into the fitness side of golf and how improving your mobility, strength, speed and overall movement can have a genuine impact on your game. I’ll be honest… I was about as flexible as a slab of concrete  But after working on loosening up my joints, making a proper warmup part of my daily routine and generally improving my mobility, I’ve noticed a difference in my golf. More importantly, I’ve gained distance, speed and I’m now playing pain free. Matt also talks about what he offers as a coach, how he trains himself and how he approaches fitness specifically for golfers. And of course, we couldn’t get through a golf chat without touching on the Good Good / Callaway advert  Plus plenty of general golf chat, coaching, fitness and everything in between. If you’re someone looking to become fitter, faster or stronger, and want to understand how that could translate onto the golf course, this is definitely an episode for you.

Season 2 Episode 24 - Millie May Tillyer

1 hr 11 min

 Episode 62 is here and what a brilliant conversation this was. Joining me this week is PGA Professional Millie May Tiller, and let me tell you, Millie has the kind of personality that can brighten anyone’s day. Her energy is infectious, and I came away from this podcast in such a good mood. Millie started golf at a very young age thanks to her parents, especially her mum, who played a huge role in introducing her to the game and supporting her journey. We don’t go too deeply into it, but losing her mum has undoubtedly had a huge impact on Millie’s life. Despite that, she continues to make her mum proud through everything she achieves, both on and off the golf course, including raising money for charity in her honour. While that experience affected her competitive side for a period, don’t let that fool you. Millie may be enjoying her golf more than ever, but she’ll still do everything she can to beat you on the course. We chat about:  Competing from a young age  Turning professional at just 18  What’s in the bag  Her favourite golf courses she’s played — and yes, somehow she picked my home course in Scotland!  Her partner Jack, who is also a PGA Professional (loser does the dishes for a week after their matches)  Starting her own business and taking a gamble on herself  Our shared love of JCB and how Kate, Millie and myself are apparently buying a tractor just to get an invite All this and plenty more. Make sure you give Millie and her partner Jack a follow if you're looking for lessons. For business enquiries, Millie’s email is below, and you’ll also find details of the golf course she’s affiliated with. Go and give them a follow, like and share and let them know I sent you. https://www.instagram.com/milliemaytillyer https://www.instagram.com/jackeatongolf_?igsh=MTVzNmE3cWJ4YnI5dA== https://www.instagram.com/woolstonmanor milliemay.media@gmail.com Huge thanks as always to Shot Scope for supporting the podcast use code CHASINGPARS for 15% off   Like  Shar...

Season 2 Episode 22 - Barry Waearing FNDGolfer

1 hr 23 min

Episode 60 is here and this is a really important one. Joined by Barry Waearing (fndgolfer), current Scottish Open champion for golfers with disabilities, we dive into a conversation that goes far beyond golf. Barry lives with FND often described as “the most common uncommon condition” and while he does incredible work raising awareness everywhere he goes, this episode also reminds you that he is far more than his condition. He’s a brilliant golfer, a genuine competitor, and an even better person. We start with his incredible Scottish Open victory before getting into some deeper conversations around FND. Barry was incredibly open and honest answering questions, helping normalise discussions around conditions people may not fully understand. We talk about:  His golf journey and Scottish Open win  The daily physical and mental struggles of living with FND  What golf can do for mental health and routine  What needs to change in golf to create more competitive opportunities for disabled golfers  WITB and golf ball chat  The most important thing golfers should practice  The future of golf simulators  And of course, a round of This or That Honestly, this was one of the most eye-opening and enjoyable conversations I’ve had on the podcast.

Season 2 Episode 18 - Matt @Highlandgolfperformance

1 hr 17 min

Episode 56 is here slightly later than planned, but definitely worth the wait. I’ve been wanting to get Matt on for a while now, especially after following his content during my own fat loss phase and becoming genuinely interested in golf-specific training (something I still need to properly commit to ). We get into:  How Matt got into golf  His journey into fitness and how that evolved into specialising in golf performance training  Why this type of training is becoming more important for golfers of all levels Of course, we also cover:  His first set of clubs and what’s in the bag now  Where he’s based and why he made the move north  A round of This or That to finish It’s a really insightful episode, especially if you’ve ever thought about improving your game through fitness and if it sparks your interest, definitely reach out to Matt and have a chat. Massive thanks to Matt for jumping on during what is usually kids’ bedtime commitment to the pod  Looking forward to getting a round in soon… and maybe even letting him analyse just how badly my body moves  Huge thanks as always to Shot Scope use code CHASINGPARS for 15% off   Please like, share, subscribe and tell a golf mate it all helps grow the podcast Stay safe Stay humble Stay blessed 

Season 2 Episode 16 - PGA Pro Craig Dickie

1 hr 37 min

From a less-than-ideal start in football to a later route into golf, Craig’s journey to becoming a PGA professional is anything but typical  and that’s exactly what makes this such a great listen. Come hear Craig talk me through his unusual path into the game, how his goal was always to become a teaching pro, and how he’s now living that ambition every day. We get into:  His route into coaching and life as a PGA pro  WITB — including the brand deal with the company that should apparently never be mentioned   Why everyone should seriously consider a 7 wood  The range he works from and what day-to-day coaching looks like There’s also plenty of opinion in this one:  A proper rant about outdated club rules around ladies and juniors  Golf attire grievances  Why golf still feels behind the times in some areas  The rise of online coaching platforms like Skillest And of course, we finish with This or That and plenty more chat along the way. A brilliant conversation and one that definitely left me looking forward to getting a match arranged with Craig this summer.

Out Here Chasing Pars – Episode 53 ft. the founders of Hydra Caddie — Ross & Harrison Episode 53 is here, and this week I’m joined by Ross and Harrison, the childhood friends behind Hydra Caddie a brand built around golf, health, and hydration that’s already making a serious impression. These two have shared plenty over the years, junior golf, football, nights out, and now building a business together. Back in the golf world, they’ve created a product that genuinely stands out. I’ve tried the samples myself, thought they tasted excellent, and it definitely encouraged me to order more. We get into: ⛳ Their golf journeys from junior golf through the younger years 👜 First clubs, current bags, fittings, and of course a proper WITB chat 🏠 Their home course 😅 Harrison’s absolute fear of wedges and the hole that gives him the most nightmares We also spend plenty of time talking about what makes Hydra Caddie different: 💧 Why hydration matters more than most golfers realise 🏌️ Whether pro shops are missing a trick by not leaning into products like this 🚀 Their plans for the future and where they want to take the company 📈 How long it took to launch and how well it’s already being received especially with very little paid advertising, which says a lot about the product itself As always, we wrap things up with a round of This or That and there’s plenty of good chat in between. Make sure you check out the website, support the lads, and give them a follow across social media and let them know I sent you 👏 And if you enjoy the episode, please like, share, subscribe, and tell a friend it all helps grow the podcast more than you know.

Now, alongside all of that, she’s also showing the world that mums can still play golf at a high level 💪 👶 Mum to a 3-month-old, you’ll already find Emily sharing videos from the driving range with her little princess — and hopefully one day we’ll see them both out on the course together. We get into: ⛳ Her golf journey from junior golf through to elite competition 👜 Clubs, equipment changes, and what’s currently in the bag 🏌️ Her role in golf through coaching and volunteering 😂 Teaching her partner to play despite once saying she’d never date a golfer 🎟️ The event at Gaudet Luce Golf Club  and everything they’re putting together there get tickets here https://www.blitzgolf.net/tickets We also talk about something much more personal: 💙 How Prostate Cancer has affected her family 🎗️ My upcoming challenge to raise money for charity because it always hits differently when it’s for someone you know There’s so much in this one, and honestly we were already planning a part two before we’d even finished recording.

This one felt a little different, because when someone from the world around Peter Finch joins you for a chat, you know you’re getting a unique insight into modern golf content. Like many people, Pete has inspired me to play more golf, create content, and even start this podcast but through watching the videos and the show, it was Kieran’s infectious personality that really stood out, so I’m genuinely grateful he gave up his time for this. We get into: ⛳ How he first got into golf 👜 A proper WITB chat including just how much fun it must be having access to all the gear they get around 😂 🎥 His journey into the role he has now — a job many golf lovers would genuinely describe as dream territory 📹 How much work really goes into every piece of content they produce (and why every creator deserves a little extra love in the form of a like and comment) We also cover: ✈️ Travel and life on the road 🎬 Content creation and creative process 🏌️ Tour pros and the wider game 🎯 A round of This or That …and plenty more along the way Honestly, Kieran is one of those guests you feel you could pick the brain of for hours. I know many of you probably already do, but make sure you give him and the team a follow if you haven’t already 👏 https://www.instagram.com/kieran_mulhall?igsh=MTB6dWM1OWEwZWo1dw== https://www.instagram.com/roughcutgolfpodcast?igsh=aGVhdjUxNjZmc2Vz Huge thanks as always to Shot Scope for supporting the podcast use code CHASINGPARS for 15% off.

Season 2 Episode 11 - Big Jim Does Golf

1 hr 39 min

Out Here Chasing Pars – Episode 50 ft. Jim (@bigjimdoesgolf) Episode 50 is here half a century of Chasing Pars! Hard to believe we’ve reached this milestone, and it felt only right to mark it with a brilliant guest in Jim. This one has been a long time coming. Between winter schedules and Jim welcoming a newborn baby, finding the right time took a while but it was absolutely worth the wait.  It’s a longer episode, so settle in and enjoy. We get into:  Jim’s unique start in golf and let’s just say, if it had happened to me, I’m not sure I’d ever pick up a 7 iron again   His current clubs, what he’s gaming now, and what changes could be coming next  With no home course to anchor him, we talk about courses far and wide and some of the places still on the wish list This episode feels a little different from the usual format more like two golf obsessed  lads chatting freely, which leads us into:  Where Jim wants his content to go  The type of content he really wants to create  Lists, debates, agreements, disagreements… and the occasional rant We also tackle some bigger golf questions:  Who are your top 5 golfers of the 21st century?  Should golf have a 5th major and where would you stage it?  Who’s your favourite golf YouTuber right now? All that and plenty more in a really enjoyable episode.

 Season 2, Episode 3 – Out Here Chasing Pars ft. @demi_golfs The latest episode is here, and I’m joined by the lovely Demi (@demi_golfs) — someone with a genuinely unique and refreshing journey into the game. Demi started with lessons before even hitting the driving range, something she still commits to, alongside practising like a mad person (her words ).

A 28 handicap, with an enthusiasm for golf that just keeps growing.

 Chasing Pars Special Episode – Talking FND with Laura (@rubbishcricketersandgolfers)

1 hr 2 min

For this special episode, I’m joined by Laura, one half of Rubbish Cricketers and Golfers, to talk a little golf — but more importantly, to help raise awareness of FND (Functional Neurological Disorder).This conversation was as much about me learning as it was about sharing information. Huge thanks to Laura for patiently educating me and answering my questions — even the ones that felt silly to ask. I really hope this episode helps anyone who knows someone living with FND, or who may be dealing with it themselves.I truly believe we can all be curious, ask questions, and learn — without being rude or intrusive. Hopefully I managed to do that here.I’m looking forward to having Laura back on with Gary in the future to talk all about their channel and, of course, more golf. But for now, I hope this episode is as interesting and eye-opening for you as it was for me, and that it helps shine a light on the realities of this condition.Thank you again to Laura for her openness and honesty — and thank you all for listening.#ChasingPars #FNDawareness #GolfWithPurpose #MentalHealthMatters #LearnWithMe

Out Here Chasing Pars – Fitness Special ft. Gav Sorley (@gavsorleycoaching) For this special episode, I’m joined by my friend and coach Gav Sorley, and this one goes a bit beyond golf — into fitness, mindset, and real-life change. I wanted Gav on the show to talk about:  His journey from office job to fitness coach  His football background (goalkeeper… that still counts, right? )  Why he started, where the passion came from, and what drives him now  How much he invests in himself through education — funny how he loves learning now when school was a different story  We also get into:  The advantages of online coaching  Tips on what to look for if you’re starting your own fitness journey  Where people often go wrong — and how to avoid it  Gav’s own comedic golf story and whether he could ever see himself becoming a golfer …and as always, we venture off down a few different avenues along the way I don’t praise him enough, but Gav is the main reason I went from 136kg down to 83kg. I’m back working with him over winter now, getting ready for the next golf season — and I couldn’t recommend him more.

We kick things off with the classics:  How he first got into golf  What’s in the bag  His original Slazenger V300 package set We dive into:  How cheap golf can really be — including Steven’s challenge where he tried to get everything he needed to play for under £50… and then attempt to break 50 on the front 9 at his home course. (Should I try this challenge too?)   His passion for his home club Hadden Hill — a place that should be proud to have him representing it. Honestly, he made me want to travel down and play it myself… and that’s exactly why I started this podcast in the first place.  His content journey  The new people, friendships, and connections he’s made through golf  Why the golf community truly is the best — and I absolutely stand by that All this and so much more — so put the kettle on, grab a biscuit, and strap in for a brilliant conversation  https://www.tiktok.com/@thegolfingbutcher?_r=1&_t=ZN-91VnmoPqNpS #OutHereChasingPars #GolfingButcher #StevenChandler #GolfPodcast #GolfCommunity #GolfLife #GolfContent #BudgetGolf #GolfIsForEveryone #GrowTheGame #GolfTalk #GolfAddict #WITB #WeekendGolfers #ScottishGolf #GolfUK

Episode 21 – Out Here Chasing Pars ft. Mr Ross Bell This one is special. Without Ross, this podcast might not even exist. He got me into podcasting years ago, I’m still part of his team today — and he was the one who pushed me to start this show. He even handles the editing and uploading so I can just record and run the socials. Legend 👏 In this episode we talk about: 🎧 How Ross first got into podcasting 🏌️‍♂️ When & why he started golfing 🪓 Hoarding clubs — if you think I’m bad, wait until you hear how many sets he’s owned 🤯 🌍 Courses around him & his favourites so far 📍 Bucket-list courses he wants to play 🧠 The importance of golf & golf with friends for mental health — or in Ross’ words: “Golf is good for the soul.” All that and plenty more — a great chat with the guy who helped make this podcast possible.
