I moved my handicap from 24 to 10 in one season with one tip. "The swing you have that day is the swing you have, so no need for mechanical thoughts during your round, go through your decision checklist, pick a target, only think of your target at address, and swing." -Bob Rotella. From 10 to scratch, I know I have to improve ball striking, around the green, and decision making, so that's the next step. Which is mostly strokes gained advice.

Didn't hit a golf ball till I was about 32. Got to scratch in ten years on my own by pounding balls, sometimes 2000 a day. 1500 of those would be from 125 and in. I wish I had a coach and someone who knew how to teach course management. Now I'm in my 50s, play about ten rounds a year and shoot bogey golf. This was an amazing podcast and I look forward to tracking my game much closer to see where I can improve

That is awesome! Getting to scratch is a heck of an accomplishment. Any advantage you can get is good, and stats is a great way. Glad you liked it!

Only 217 views?? That’s insane, with the info here it should have 217,000! Lots of great stuff

That's true! Hope more people find it!

The sad truth is most people don't have the capacity or willingness to understand this even as well presented as it is by Lou, Scott, John Sherman, and others. Look at Foreplay when they had Scott Fawcett on to help Frankie. Scott kept it super simple. It was well explained and they still had no clue what Scott was talking about. It literally goes in one ear and out the other.

@@lawbinson True. The only way is to keep explaining and tell them more and hope they figure it out.

Great stuff as always! As mentioned, this season in my first PGA Sectional open event (I am a senior am +50) I handled a wayward tee shot incredibly effectively. I asked a rules official for my options on an unplayable and worked through my options. In the past I would have frantically rushed to a decision just because i was now in serious trouble potentially. This is a mental sill that I've had to work to acquire. Great stuff guys! (I ended up deciding to play the ball as it lied and made an incredible par that kept my round on track and led to my best competitive score so far -- cheers!)

Boom! That's what we like to hear. Keep up the great work!

Fantastic info included in this video, Lou you have provoked so much for me to think about and how to improve my game. Thank you

@thetournamentcode Год назад

Glad to hear it! We will be sure to let him know. He is a great guy. If you liked this episode, you might also like either the Jon Sherman, Sasho MacKenzie, or Scott Fawcett episode. We also have one coming with a well-known mental coach that will come in about 1.5 weeks
