Callaway & Good Good: What Were They Thinking?
I’ve watched a lot of golf content over the years. Some of it is ridiculous, some of it pushes boundaries, and honestly, I’m usually all for finding ways to make golf feel less serious.
But the Callaway x Good Good commercial that came out last week? I can’t get behind it.
If you haven’t seen it,...

Want To Stop Missing 3–5 Footers? Start With This 8‑Of‑10 Rule
Most golfers obsess over long putts and ignore the ones that really decide their scores: 3–5 footers.
Those are the:
Par savers after a good chip
Bogey savers after a scramble
Knee-knockers on the last hole of league
If you can clean up that range, everything else on the course feels lighter.
W...

Contact & Start Line
If your contact and start line aren’t predictable, nothing else really matters.
You can have perfect intentions, smart targets, and a great routine…but if the ball is coming off the face wildly different from swing to swing, the game will always feel streaky.
What consistent contact actually feel...

Congratulations to Ryan Fox!
Fun fact, the first time the Open was played at Royal Birkdale, was 16 years before the invention of the telephone!Â
What a wild week at Royal Birkdale! The 194th Open got absolutely crazy with the scoring - we saw three different guys fire record-tying 62s throughout the week. Lucas Herbert and ...

Range Swings vs. League Swings
You’ve probably had this experience:
On the range, your swing looks and feels solid.On league night, it’s like someone swapped bodies with you.
That gap between range swing and league swing is one of the biggest frustrations I hear.
It’s not a sign you’re broken.It’s usually a sign your practice ...

Stop Guessing What To Practice Next
Most golfers “practice” by walking onto the range, looking at the buckets, and deciding on the spot what to hit.
A few wedges.Some 7‑irons.A handful of drivers.
You leave sweaty, but you don’t actually know if any of that moved you closer to lower scores.
You didn’t have a plan. You just had time...

A 30-Minute Practice That Actually Lowers Your Score
Most golfers think they need two hours and a launch monitor to get better.
You don’t.
If you’ve got 30 minutes before league night, you can run a simple session that actually lowers your scores instead of just producing a few “range swing” highlights.
The key is to stop practicing to look good on...

Why Your Practice Never Seems to Show Up in League Play
You stripe it on the range.You chip fine in the short game area.
Then Monday night comes, you step onto the first tee, and suddenly it’s like you’ve never practiced at all.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
The practice/play mismatch
Most golfers practice in conditions that never show up...

Stop Blowing Up One Hole Every Round
You know that feeling when your scorecard looks pretty decent… except for one hole that ruins everything?
A triple on a short par 4.A blow-up on the same hole in your league every week.
It starts to feel personal, like that hole has a vendetta against you.
Here’s the truth: it’s usually not the h...

Mid‑Season Tune‑Up: Sharper Irons, Better Scores
By mid‑May, league season is no longer an idea on the calendar. You’ve got:
A few official scores in the books
A feel for how your game stacks up against your group
A sense of which holes and shots are giving you trouble
At this point, most league players fall into one of two camps:
They keep ...
