We finally get another course review as JDV and T do a deep dive on the newest 18-hole course in South Africa - Zimbali Lakes. They chat about the Ernie Els involvement, the cost and their favorite holes. JDV tackles the handicap rating issue and T speculates where this course will land in the SA Top 100 rankings.

Much like the famed documentary, this episode explores alot and not much.

In My October Teacher, we dive into the strange lessons of October - from Hoff’s tales of questionable golf lessons to Ryder Cup takeaways, South Africa’s success at the World Amateur Team Champs, and the KZN Sunshine Tour swing.

We also check in on our own golf goals (some thriving, others begging for a mulligan) and wrap up the 2025 Major Goat comp.

And because we love a good idea almost as much as a bad one, we announce our first-ever Goat Track event: The Mashters — a 9-hole social gathering in KZN.

Every golfer has their quirks, but our regular guest Fuad takes pre-round rituals and on-course habits to another level. From how he dresses, to the way he sets up his gear, to the strange rules he follows mid-round—his list of superstitions is as long as a par 5. We dig into them all, laugh at the madness, and uncover whether these little rituals actually help or just add pressure.

If you’ve ever marked your ball a certain way “for luck,” worn the same hat after a good round, or avoided talking about your score until the 18th is done—you’ll feel right at home in this chat.
