Twin2win Golf Podcast

This week we discuss the wonder that is Bob Rotella, Ben confesses he skips his homework and we look for suggestions for our upcoming 50th episode! Thanks so much for joining us on our little podcast journey. We appreciate every single one of you. And if you’re new around here, why not give us a follow on your favourite platform, drop us a comment to say hi. If you’re wondering what to give us as a present for our 50th episode, we do like a 5 Star review 😂🙌🏻

Leigh’s game is falling apart, Ben’s suddenly found a driver, and we’re both trying to get fitter. Welcome to another week of average golf and questionable life choices. This week, we’re breaking down our latest rounds. Leigh’s wedges have officially become his worst enemy, while Ben has somehow hit THREE drivers despite barely ever using the thing. What on earth is going on?! We also debate whether winter golf should count towards your handicap, whether we need separate summer and winter handicaps, and how Project Hench is progressing (or not…). Then it’s time for some accountability. Leigh’s homework? Read Golf Is Not a Game of Perfect. Ben’s? Exercise three times this week. Who’s more likely to stick to their assignment? Answers on a postcard. And, of course, we finish with a couple of delicious Positivity Sandwiches because even when golf is kicking you in the teeth, there’s always something to smile about. ⛳ Two average golfers. One questionable driver revelation. Zero excuses. Come for the golf, stay for the laughs.

Winter golf is coming… and the Twin2Win Winter Grind is officially underway. 🥶🏌️ This week, Ben and Leigh talk about their plans for the winter and what they’re going to do to make sure they come out the other side better golfers. But first… Leigh has another problem. After throwing away yet ANOTHER lead in a recent match, he wants to know: How the hell do you become mentally stronger on the golf course? 😂 We get into choking leads, golf psychology, confidence, practice, and what it actually takes to stop giving matches away when you should be closing them out. And then there’s PROJECT HENCH . 💪 Yes… it’s happening. The winter grind isn’t just about getting better at golf. Leigh has decided it’s time to get HENCH as well. Expect golf chat, questionable plans, winter training, mental strength, plenty of laughs and two average golfers attempting to convince themselves that this winter will finally be the one where everything changes. Come for the golf. Stay for the laughs. 🎧 Listen now and join us for the winter

This week we are joined by Em and Rebecca the founders of The Women’s Golf House ahead of the first event on Friday October 2nd being held at The Telford Hotel and Spa Golf Resort. How did Women’s golf house come about? Well you’ll have to listen to find out won’t you. We talk their golfing journeys, some of our golf hates and what it’s like being new to golf.

On this weeks show we discuss the recent European success at the Solheim cup, how practice makes perfect and Ben has an epiphany and that’s easy for him to say.

This week on Twin2Win Golf, we’re joined by Tommy Minter and Marv after recently teeing it up together at John O’Gaunt Golf Club . We chat about where our golf games are actually at, the things we’re struggling with, and the big question every amateur golfer wants answered… How do you actually get better at golf without spending every waking hour on the range? 😂 We get into: 🏌️‍♂️ Our golf games — what’s going well, what definitely isn’t, and where we’re all losing shots. ⛳ Where can you make the quickest improvements? Is it your driver? Short game? Putting? Course management? Or are you simply making the same stupid mistakes every round? 🏌️ How often should you practise? Do you need hours on the range every week, or can a little bit of focused practice actually make a difference? 🏆 The Solheim Cup — we discuss the latest action, the competition and what makes the event so brilliant. 😂 Golf with mates — because sometimes the best part of playing golf is the absolute nonsense that happens along the way. And, as always, there’s plenty of golf chat, opinions, laughs and questionable advice from four golfers who are still trying to figure the bloody game out. If you’re trying to lower your handicap, get more out of your practice sessions or just want to hear four golfers debate how to stop being rubbish, this one’s for you. Come for the golf. Stay for the laughs. 🎧 Listen now wherever you get your podcasts. 📲 Follow Twin2Win Golf: @twin2win_golf Tommy Minter - @mintergolf Marv - @getupandgorentals Danil Maleckij - @danil_maleckij_golf

On this weeks episode we discuss The WHS after Leigh got annihilated this weekend but in real terms only lots one hole. Ben’s got a case of the shanks and Leigh may or may not have set Ben up with his own little quiz as revenge for Ben’s quiz last week. We’ll let you decide.

Now this is going to sting . An honest feedback episode. Ben’s idea of a fun analysis of who is the better overall golfer Ben or Leigh.. that’ll be fine won’t it. Surely that won’t descend into a heated debate. Or will it 🥴 It comes from a place of love and we both genuinely want each other to continue to improve and reach our goals. Just not quicker than the other one. Between debates, we breifly talk about an exciting new golf sim venue in Bedfordshire that we’re honoured to get to visit before the launch day.

We are joined by Rikki from @foreheadsgolf we discuss amongst other things, recent rounds, touch on mental health in golf. Leigh scored Bens new golf course, Sharnbrook in Fairway to Heaven and Rikki takes on the quick 9 quiz with Bogey Ben scoring for this week, unlikely there be any records broken this week then 😂 Instagram: @foreheadsgolf

What end of the bag would you rather spend your money? We’re going for the putter end. It is the club you use the most after all… This week, we are joined by first time podcaster. Nath, better know as the man behind the amazing putter refurb and customisation business Putter Refurb UK - Links below. We talk this golf game in general (PGA Professional), when golf became an obsession and how it turned it a business. Stick around until the end to hear how Nath does on the quick 9.

In this episode, we go back to the roots of the podcast and talk our golf games. Where are we now and our recent rounds. Summing it up for a classic positivity sandwich. We end up debating how long is too long for a par 3… what are your thoughts? AND! Happy birthday to us… Ben and Leigh, not the podcast 😂 if you’re thinking, oh this is awkward, I’ve not got you anything, we’re simple men. All we want is a 5 Star ⭐ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review and you to follow us on your favourite podcast platform. If you’re feeling extra generous why don’t you drop us a comment too 🙌🏻 Come on give us a listen and let us know, we think you won’t regret it.

Is Leigh an absolute bandit? Ben certainly thinks so. What do you think? (Guess who’s turn it was to do the edit 😂) After another week off, we are back. I know.. sorry. But…. This episode has it all. Controversy.. Banditry (all Leigh) and the usual show features that we hope you’ve come to love. We had another round of “One Twin Wins” Can Ben close the gap on Leigh or will Leigh make further ground. It’s currently 5-3 to Leigh. Ben has a “Fairway to Heaven” review on The Millbrook Golf Club and there will be plenty of “Positivity Sandwiches” for everyone. Skratchr Links Apple App: Skratchr Instagram: @skratchrgolf

Ben was under the weather this week, so Leigh takes the reins alongside a special guest – Emily Hyde (@emhyde_golf) , Team South Vice Captain for the UK Creator Cup. They chat about Emily’s journey in golf, how her game has developed, and what it’s like preparing for one of the biggest creator golf events of the year. The conversation also takes a more personal turn as Emily opens up about the charity work she’s been involved in following the loss of her dad to cancer. To wrap things up, Emily faces the Quick 9 , where the questions come thick and fast and we get to know her a little better.

Leigh’s back after an enforced week away and we’re back doing what we do best—talking plenty of golf (and plenty of nonsense). This week we look back at Pádraig Harrington’s Senior U.S. Open victory and discuss why we’re convinced both he and Peter Finch are loyal Twin2Win listeners… until we’re told otherwise! We bring back some of your favourite features too. We take a trip to Fairway to Heaven to review Halifax Golf Club, go head-to-head in a 9-hole edition of One Twin Wins , and chat about something every golfer has experienced—how your mood can have a huge impact on your game.

This week I’m flying solo again as Leigh is away, but we’ve got two brilliant guests joining the podcast—Megan and Jordan from Fairway Competitions. We chat about how Fairway Competitions started, the incredible golf prizes you can win, how their competitions work, and why they’re determined to build something different from the typical competition sites. For them, it’s all about creating a genuine golf community and showing the personalities behind the brand. We also dive into some of golf’s biggest debates, including Augusta or St Andrews? and The Ryder Cup or The Open? Which side are you on? As fellow content creators, we swap stories from those awkward early days of making videos, including one unforgettable hotel experience involving pizza, Family Guy… and some extremely noisy neighbours. Jordan’s description of the evening had us in stitches. 😂 To round things off, we look ahead to the upcoming UK Creator Cup, talk about the growth of golf content online, and discuss what’s next for Fairway Competitions. If you enjoy golf, creator stories, plenty of laughs and hearing from people trying to do things differently, this one’s for you. 👍 Don’t forget to subscribe, give us a 5 ⭐ review and let us know in the comments: Augusta or St Andrews?
