Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

431: Jeff Sullivan: Secrets of a +4 HDCP at 40 Years Young
Q: What would you say is your best tip to help someone become a plus handicap?
You don't have to hit it as good as you feel like you need to to be a plus handicap. It's about doing the boring things consistently and having strict routines.
429: Brent Grant - The Grind, The Glory, & The Reality of Pro Golf
Q: What's the number one mental tip that you've learned over your journey that can help amateurs?
A plan is a point of departure. If you have no plan and things go wrong, you will fail.
429: Brent Grant - The Grind, The Glory, & The Reality of Pro Golf
Q: What kind of tips would you give for amateur golfers who aren't playing for their livelihood?
Nobody cares about what you're doing, and thinking about others' opinions can lead to poor decisions on the course.
Lou Stagner - Track Stats, Manage Expectations and Add Speed (Flashback Friday)
Q: Should everyday amateur golfers work more on short putts or lag putts?
For amateurs, it's more important to work on speed control on lag putts to avoid three-putting, while ensuring shorter putts get to the hole.
Lou Stagner - Track Stats, Manage Expectations and Add Speed (Flashback Friday)
Q: How important is it for amateur golfers to stay out of the sand?
Amateur golfers generally perform poorly from sand traps; avoiding them can make the game considerably easier and help improve scores.
