New Clubs, AI Caddies & the Tech That's Changing How We Practice

Let us know what you want from the show! Email us at hello@bothpar.com, as tell us: What parts do you want more of? What do you want less of? What else could we cover that would make the show unmissable for you? Thanks! Colin and Ross brave the Scottish winter to discuss everything from broken driver faces to AI-powered golf coaches. Colin shares his experience switching from TaylorMade to Ping after his QI35 driver gave up the ghost (again), while Ross opens up about creative ways to practice when you're snowed in. The duo dives deep into golf technology—from rangefinders and GPS watches to AI swing analysis apps that could change how you practice. Plus, Ross shares a brilliant story about staying in the Gary Player Suite at Carnoustie for just £50, and they discuss why measuring outcomes beats obsessing over swing mechanics.
