  • Rory's Masters, Steep vs Shallow & Where Are Golf's Next Superstars?
    Apr 13 2026

    The Masters is done for another year — and Rory McIlroy made it look frighteningly comfortable. Baden and Clappy break down how a man who ranked second-last in driving accuracy for the weekend somehow won by three, why Augusta may be more forgiving than it used to be, and whether any of the chasing pack ever really had a chance.

    Then the conversation turns to a topic that lit up the coaching world during Masters week: Brandel Chamblee's claim that Scottie Scheffler has a "steepening move." The boys dig into why the terminology matters, what the camera angle wasn't showing, and how the steep-vs-shallow debate — however it's framed — keeps causing real confusion for everyday golfers.

    They wrap up asking a question that's been nagging all season: where are the new personalities? With the same veterans filling the leaderboard week after week, is the game crying out for its next superstar — and is the coaching world doing enough to find them?

  • Masters Preview!
    Apr 7 2026

    Augusta National is the greatest stage in golf, and this week it's centre stage. Baden and Alex (Clappy) kick off Masters Week with an unfiltered preview — debating why the Masters beats every other major (no phones, perfect contrast, Amen Corner), picking their contenders for the Green Jacket, and revisiting Tiger's single most iconic moment on that course.

    They also touch on what it actually takes to win Augusta — why first-timers rarely contend, why the best players almost always win it, and what separates the course knowledge of someone like Ludvig Åberg from the rest of the field.

    This week's picks:

    • Baden: Bryson DeChambeau & Jason Day (tip from Matt Fryer)
    • Clappy: Chris Gotterup & Cam Young — plus a quiet word for Patrick Reed

  • The man who built Bryson's clubs! Tom Bailey of Avoda Golf
    Apr 3 2026

    What do you get when a pain-riddled amateur golfer goes down every rabbit hole imaginable — coaching, biomechanics, club grinding, and manufacturing — and ends up accidentally building one of the most disruptive equipment brands in the game? You get Tom Bailey and Avoda Golf.

    Tom joined us for a wide-ranging conversation about how a bench grinder, a brother with an e-commerce background, and a frustrated Bryson DeChambeau turned a 50-set goal into one of golf's fastest-growing club companies.

    We get deep into the science behind what Avoda actually does differently — lie angle as the single most important spec in your bag, why combo-length irons make more sense than you think, how the right grip size is just like wearing the right shoe, and the curve-face technology that had Bryson saying "I've never seen a club do that." We also get into Tom's current work with Jason Day and his coach Colin Swatton, and the remarkable story of how the right sole grind fixed in a week what they'd been working on for years.

    In this episode

    Why lie angle trumps everything else

    Combo length vs same length irons

    The Bryson DeChambeau story

    Jason Day's wedge revelation

    Curve face tech explained

    The precision fitting system for coaches

    "We know the golf club is not just a thing that you buy and use for a year. You can get it dialled in exactly how you need it — to take you on the journey you're going on with your coach."

    — Tom Bailey, founder of Avoda Golf

    AVO Golf is giving away three precision fitting systems to coaches. Follow @avogolf and DM the word Skillest to be entered into the draw.
