  • Golf expertise meets leading-edge tech, meets golf nerds — great pod! Can’t wait for more.

    Thanks guys I’m really loving this pod.

    The content feels like it’s right on the leading edge of golf nerding, latest tech and research. The interplay between the three experts is really clean and tight, and sometimes the powerful comments deserve a 2nd or 3rd listen.

    Thanks guys, Looking forward to hearing more

  • Fresh and Modern Views

    The conversations are well composed and informative. It’s so nice to hear high golf IQ instructors and players discuss topics in a way anyone can follow. I appreciate how they discuss opinions and aren’t afraid to disagree at times. I particularly liked the ‘drills i don’t like’ episode. I would like to hear them do a podcast on common golf misconceptions and why they’re bogus aside from drills. Well done guys!
