In the latest episode of Your Golf Podcast by NCG, Tom Irwin is joined by PGA Pro Jack Backhouse to cut through the noise and explain what TrackMan numbers really matter and which ones you can safely ignore.

They break down how to read golf simulator data without getting overwhelmed, what numbers to focus on to actually improve, why indoor golf is booming, and what new equipment could be changing the game in 2026. Because in modern golf, we’ve got more information than ever… but not always more understanding.

On this week's Your Golf Podcast by NCG, host Tom Irwin teams up once again with PGA Professional Jack Backhouse to take on a challenge every golfer can relate to: building the ultimate second-hand golf bag.

In true Tom fashion, he dives into nostalgia, selecting several of his favourite clubs from the 1990s—think classic shapes, retro feels, and the gear that defined an era. Jack, meanwhile, keeps things grounded in reality by choosing second-hand clubs that listeners can actually find, buy, and put straight into play without needing a time machine.

Together, they explore how to assemble a full bag of affordable, reliable, and surprisingly high-performing pre-loved equipment, sharing tips on what to look for, what to avoid, and which cult-classic clubs still absolutely hold up today.
