The weather’s getting colder and the days are getting shorter.

But don’t put the clubs away as winter arrives. This is a perfect time to get a grip on our golf game sand make them better.

When it comes to using data to do that, we have never had it so good. And on these week’s episode, Steve Carroll is joined by NCG’s equipment expert Hannah Holden to show how you can use numbers to your advantage.

We’ve got some fabulous Shot Scope data that can get your golf into shape – without you necessarily having to spend hours on the range. So let’s get stuck in!

Ranking golf courses is risky business. One person’s heaven is another’s hell. Yet we all love a good list, don’t we?

We’ve got another one for you at National Club Golfer and this week, Steve Carroll is joined by our Top 100s chairman Dan Murphy to talk about our review of the best courses in Great Britain & Ireland.

You will find courses in positions that make you happy and courses in positions that make you cross.

But join Steve and Dan as they discuss the countdown, pick out some of their favourites, and try to analyse the current trends in courses we all love to visit.

Steve Carroll is joined by Sam Cooper to talk about his new journal and website project – Links From the Road.

Sam went on a road trip we all wish we could take. With a set of clubs, his partner, their dogs, and a van, he toured 225 links courses around England, Scotland and Wales.

The journey changed his life. Now a well-known podcaster, and an associate golf course architect with Clayton, Devries and Pont, he has branched out into writing.

Talking with Steve about the first of a multi-volume set that retraces his steps and details the courses he played, it is quite the conversation.

If you love golf courses, you have to listen…

The first volume of Links from the Road is launched on October 16. You can pre-order it right now at linksfromtheroad.com
