Have questions about balancing family life and your golf game? Do you wonder where to find that next gem for a golf trip? Are you trying to make your constrained budget go that bit further? Hambino & Tuck Sauce unite to talk about all the peaks and valleys that come with being a golfer and more importantly being a dad.
After several hours of recording and two episodes we finally reach the topic that kicked this whole series off. Course management tips. If you find yourself plateauing or just need some help on bettering your scores this episode is for you!
Tips and Trick for making your round faster and your scores lower
This is week one of our course management series. And it starts with making sure you are playing from the right tee.
Sauce has played a lot of golf. Very few golf experiences add up to what he had on some small town Par 3 in Virginia. Check out this weeks episode on Brooks' first round of golf
After stumbling through a couple of equipment episodes (not our specialty) we finally decided well we got this far so how do you build a bag as a dad. I think in the whole episode we might give a single good piece of advice but hopefully you enjoy it!
Coming off Hambino and Sauce's amazing predictions for the Master's this last major, we decided to give the PGA Championship our best go. Quail Hallow in NC is no stranger to PGA tour events and now it hosts a major. Is it Speith's turn for a grand slam? Is it Rory's victory lap? Or will Tiger win (no... no he won't). Check out this weeks episode before making your picks!
This is the podcast of the common man and because it is we owe you bang for your buck stay and play locations. There are few better than this spot outside of Washington DC. Great layout, good conditions and amazing people. What more could you want!
We're talking about the good ole towel holder...
Sea Pines is one of the elite locations on the eastern seaboard. Very few places have a high end PGA tour spot as well as a full compliment of elite golf courses. Additionally, there is a ton of good golf right outside its gate. We've chatted about Sea Pines in the past and its about time we cover it.
We all know that a family that golfs together stays together. We have spent a lot of time talking about getting the kids on the golf course but whatever that cornerstone of the family... the Mrs. Check out this weeks episode while we discuss how to get the wives on the golf course.
A tradition unlike any other... Sauce and Hambino thinking Rory will win a green jacket. Check out this episode
This episode is inspired by a recent trip to the putting green at Dicks. So we thought... what other fun ways are there to get your kids into the game of golf. Check out this weeks episode in something that is really a corner stone of this pod!
We've done 68 episodes of the Dad Golf Podcast and have neglected a key aspect of the game. Golf Balls! Where should you buy golf balls? Should you play a water logged ball? Should you pick up balls from around the course? All of this and more on just a random discussion about that crucial piece of golf equipment.
Hopefully everyone enjoyed The Players. It's hard to believe the next big tournament is right around the corner. Hambino is an awful cook and so we thought what would be a dad friendly, easy to put together spread for the Masters. This one is for all you Dad's who are bad cooks are just don't want to spend their masters sunday slaving away in the kitchen. Hope you enjoy it and leave us 5 stars.
Not every Stay and Play needs to cost an arm and a leg. Hambino (a man of the people) has a spot for you and the family in Florida that is great for the boys trip and a quick getaway. Check out our latest Episode at Orange Lake Resort.

All journeys must come to an end and here we are. Rounding out our 3rd and final episode for 2023 we go around the Eastern Coast of Scotland primarily around the fantastic town of St. Andrews. And of course we can't keep on track so expect just some random chatter. Anyway I hope you enjoyed our focus around Scotland, Links Golf and the Open Championship

First of all congrats to Brian Harman on being the winner of the 151st Open Championship. It was a dominant display, even if half of us were asleep as you blew out the field. Anyway, we have a new episode! Hambino and Sauce cover the Open Championship the only way we know how; by barely talking about it. Instead our focus is on a traditional English Breakfast, which player has the best chance to influence our kids and of course how we get our kids to focus on the on screen golf! We also discuss the validity of a morning beer! I really think this a fun episode that gets to the core of what it means to be a dad with an obsession with golf.
So first of all... congrats Rory. Big win. The Scottish Open is a fantastic championship. Secondly, we have a great episode for you all! Many of you have heard us talk about Western Scotland and since The Open is next week so we are on a Scottish fix. We do have a small spin though. Instead of going on our typical Par, Birdie, Eagle we are going Hidden Gems, Not on the open rota and Open Championship courses. With the first episode in our rota we are going courses around Glasgow. Most of these are on the Irish sea but we did through in one or two recommendations that aren't in Ayrshire (I promise). Check out this episode and please rate us 5 stars!

Chris Ferrell from Episode 8 joins us to talk about where to stay and where to play in the Outer Banks, NC! OBX, as the car decals say, isn't well known nationwide for its golf.
