  • Episode 023 - Dog poop and double breaks
    Nov 26 2025

    Scrambling Dads get brutally honest about golf and real life. In Episode 023, Alex recaps a tournament (including a par-5 played with only two clubs), why putting cost strokes, and the plan for a quick fix lesson. We debate teeing up irons on par-3s, winter golf layers (heated vest?), zero-drop vs spiked shoes, and the gear/shaft choices that actually help mid-week grinders. Plus: Internet Invitational handicap shockers, Pro V1 vs Chrome Tour talk, simulator content on deck, holiday upload schedule, and… the joys of pets and home DIY (yes, the faucet and carpet saga).

    Expect practical tournament takeaways, relatable dad-life chaos, and actionable golf tips you can use this week.

  • Episode 010 - Tattoos, Chicken Nuggets and Driver Shafts
    Sep 3 2025

    This week the dads cover a little bit of everything. Alex breaks down life with the new sticks and how they’re holding up on the course, plus we dive into the annual golf ball testing and what it means for everyday players. The Ryder Cup takes center stage for some hot takes, but the conversation doesn’t stop there; we also get into hunting season stories and even open up about trauma and how it shapes us as dads and golfers. As always, it’s laughs, honesty, and a few double bogeys along the way.

  • Episode 018 - Locked In
    Oct 22 2025

    This week, the Scrambling Dads crew dives deep into a major milestone... our new partnership with Integrity Golf Performance. We talk through what this collaboration means for our game, our content, and how IGP’s holistic approach to coaching aligns perfectly with the Scrambling Dads mindset. From physical training and mental focus to custom fittings and real-world improvement, this is more than a sponsorship, it’s a culture shift.


    We also break down the latest on Tiger Woods’ injury and surgery, what it could mean for his future, and how resilience plays into greatness at every level. Finally, we unpack the power of positive thinking, how your mindset on and off the course can shape performance, perspective, and life balance.
