We're golf adjacent this week!
Tucky and Hoff are back on The Goat Track as they break down the Springboks’ end-of-year tour. They unpack what’s to come for Rassie and his men, and what it all means heading into 2026. Then it’s over to the Sharks: what is happening?? The guys debate who could step in and what direction the franchise really needs to take. Expect a few honest takes, a couple of digs, and more than one bold prediction.
To wrap it up, the lads get personal with their own rugby highlights from years gone by.

Episode 75: Course Review - Zimbali Lakes
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.

Episode 74: My October Teacher
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.

Episode 73: Superstitions
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.

Episode 72: SEVEN - Hoffs things
Hoff covers seven eclectic rankings from his best Goat Track to his worst Golf experience. A few courses take a couple of strays from his soapbox.
The Goat Track is a podcast for the golf-obsessed - especially those with an eye on Africa. We dive into the game and all its glorious side quests: course reviews, wild tour ideas, clubhouse banter, and an often in-depth look at the ups and downs of our own deeply average games. It’s golf, but not always as you know it.
