A different spin this week! We're changing up the show's format by adding a dose of randomness to the topics. We loaded twenty different golf subjects into a wheel and will spin it to decide what we discuss.

From cart and range etiquette to the issues of halfway houses contributing to slow play, and even the future of golf putter design, we have no shortage of topics to offer our opinions on.

On the Front Nine, we’ll chat about Scott’s recent visit to a Nova Scotia course we both loved, discuss how sponsor exemptions in pro golf events create great stories, and follow up on last week's discussion regarding post-season golf assessments.

The boys are provinces apart this week, but both are still focused on golf.

Scott shares some notes from his time in Prince Edward Island, drop-ins at a few local favourites, and a game at Glasgow Hills, while Jeff takes us through his recent visit to Stonebridge GC, gives us his assessment of the modified design, and contrasts it with the original design.

We explore news from a man who has played all 66 "Royal" golf courses around the world, and Award updates from the PGA of Ottawa Zone.

On the Front Nine, we take on the topic of how you should tackle the off-season if you plan to be a better golfer in 2026, with some ideas for your golf improvement plan. That starts with making one.

On the Back Nine, we discuss non-traditional golf course designs, rooted in the recent visit by the DP World Tour to the Delhi Golf Club in India.
