Description

This week on PaddyTalks Golf, proudly powered by ForeGolf Custom, I’m joined by performance coach Donal Scott for something I’ve never done on the pod before which is a full review of my own golf season.


Instead of just looking at scores and stats, Donal walks me through the same process he uses with players at every level: reflecting on performance, identifying blind spots, and separating what really matters from all the noise.

We dig into:

  • 📊 Which stats actually tell the truth about your game
  • 🧠 How to measure progress in your mental game
  • 🏌️‍♂️ Why decision-making and course management cost more shots than you think
  • 🔁 The difference between reviewing outcomes vs. reviewing your process
  • 🎯 How to turn a season review into a focused plan for the off-season

Donal also shares a simple framework that any golfer can use to reflect on their year, whether you’re a scratch player chasing trophies or just trying to beat your mates at the weekend.

This conversation gave me plenty of home truths (😅) but also a clear plan to move forward. I think you’ll find loads here to apply to your own game.
