Twelve years sober.In Episode 19, Scottie looks back on the end of the professional golf season, another summer at The Conk, sending Alex and Hayley back to college, Gwen beginning her senior year—and the life lessons golf continues to teach him.But at the heart of this episode is September 1, 2014: the day Scott made the decision to get sober.Twelve years later, he reflects on the relationships, faith, marriage, discipline, habits and opportunities that have grown from that decision—and why sobriety remains the foundation that makes everything else in his life possible.Scott also shares how disappointment over the past year ultimately helped lead to Links & Lifestyle, the launch of this podcast, a deeper relationship with Jesus, and a renewed commitment to becoming a better husband, father and man.Plus: this week’s Win, Challenge and Bible Verse—Colossians 3:23–24.“The person you are today, the person you were in the past would not recognize.”Purpose Driven.
Where are you moving too slowly—and where might you be moving too fast?Scottie the Caddie is back with lessons from the Open Championship, the World Cup, friendship, laughter, discipline, family, and faith.From athletes facing pressure on the biggest stages to Scott taking an honest look at his own habits and the future of Links & Lifestyle, Episode 17 comes down to two questions worth asking yourself:Where in life are you going too slow because you're lacking urgency?Where in life are you going too fast without thinking through the implications?Scott also shares his Win for the Week, his current challenge, and Matthew 17:20—a reminder that even faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains.Listen, reflect, and ask yourself: Where do I need to speed up—and where do I need to slow down?
One dinner. Twenty-four years of memories. Countless life lessons.This week, Scott shares stories from his annual Fantasy Football Champions Dinner—a tradition that has grown from a few friends gathering after a season into one of the most meaningful nights of the year.The conversation goes far beyond football as Scott reflects on changing priorities, sobriety, marriage, golf, health, loss, and the importance of investing in friendships that stand the test of time.The episode closes with Proverbs 17:17, reminding us that true friends love through every season and that some of life's greatest blessings are the people who continue showing up year after year.
This week I celebrate my 48th birthday by reflecting on the lessons that have shaped who I'm becoming—not just as a golfer or caddie, but as a husband, father, follower of Jesus, and man.We discuss Wyndham Clark's U.S. Open victory, Sam Burns' emotional post-round moment with his father, the power of gratitude, protecting your peace, overcoming a victim mentality, and why true abundance has very little to do with money.I also share how launching the Links & Lifestyle Podcast has unexpectedly transformed my own life—from healthier habits and deeper relationships to a stronger walk with Jesus.The episode closes with Romans 12:2 and a reminder that real transformation begins with renewing your mind.If you're pursuing growth, purpose, and a faith-filled life, this conversation is for you.
