The Off-Season Playbook: Insights from 2022 Pac-12 Coach of the Year Alan Murray
Q: How much coaching can coaches provide during a tournament, and how does that differ from swing coaching?

Q: What would make a junior golfer stand out in an outreach email to a college coach?

How the Best Juniors Think – PGA Coach of the Year Jason Baile
Q: What differentiates the best juniors mentally from the rest?
The best juniors are diligent about the basics, monitor fundamentals with checklists, and can adapt their approach depending on whether they're in the zoo (practice) or the jungle (competition); they maintain a stable self-talk and use a countermeasure strategy for when their primary swing isn't working.
