>>NEW BOOK: The Wicked Smart Golf Fitness Formula: Train Smarter. Hit Longer. Play Forever.

In this episode, I'm joined by Jim McLean, one of the most respected coaches in golf history and a Hall of Fame instructor whose work has influenced players and coaches around the world.

Jim shares stories from the start of his coaching career, lessons learned playing college golf at the University of Houston, and his philosophy on teaching the entire game—not just the swing. We also dive into common mistakes amateurs make, how to think about contact and low point, and why the mental game and commitment matter more than most golfers realize.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why great golf requires mastering the Total Game—long game, short game, mental game, and course management

• The most common setup mistake amateurs make (and how tension kills good swings)

• Why hitting down on the ball starts with proper weight and low-point control

• How a simple routine, commitment, and decisiveness can unlock better golf

This episode is packed with timeless lessons from one of the game's great teachers—and applies whether you're working on your swing, mindset, or overall improvement plan.
