It's the best week of the year - MASTERS week! If you're like me, it's time to barely work this week and instead, watch a TON of golf. Will a LIV golfer or PGA player win? Will there be drama? Will Tiger win again? It's going to be epic! But instead of mindlessly watching the best guys on the best course, learn from them! There's a ton you can learn from watching the best players in the world and apply to your game. In today's episode I break down seven things to consider when watching copious amounts of golf on TV including: Why you need a pre-shot routine. How they strategically play par 3s. Why you need a "goldfish" memory after bad shots. What to think about during your pre-round warm up (hint: it's not mechanics). And a lot more.

Your equipment can make golf a lot harder... or, a lot easier. It's such an important topic that I dedicated an entire chapter of my book to stress the importance of playing the right clubs. Your clubheads, shafts, and even grips play a big role in helping you shoot your lowest scores (without swing changes). After getting fit for a new PXG hybrid I had to bring on my friend and fitter Camden Nierman. He fit me for a new 17* 2H PXG club and it's been one of my favorite clubs ever. In today's episode you will learn: His biggest findings after fitting 3,000+ golfers. Why you shouldn't neglect your wedges and putter. The biggest equipment mistakes that most golfers make. Why your shafts are more important than the clubheads. If you should get fit when you're going through swing changes. And a lot more. To become a wicked smart golfer and play your best, you NEED the right clubs and this episode will clarify all your top questions. If you're in Scottsdale and need a PXG fitting make sure to reach out to Camden Nierman at the N. Scottsdale location.
