S2 Ep178: How Should You Practice

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/06/19

What do you consider to be “practice”? Do you show up at the course 30 or so minutes before Tee time and hit a few balls and putt a bit? Do you ever go to the course just to hit some balls, take some chips and pitches, or putt? Have you ever gone to the course just to practice? Have you ever considered maybe playing 9 holes and then taking a few hours to practice a bit? That s a great technique for people who have a finite amount of time to play golf. Jeff Smith, a Top 100 teacher, explains many

S2 Ep177: We Dont Need No Stinkin Rules

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/06/12

There are 192 pages of rules for the game of golf in the USGA rule book. How many of them do you follow? Sure, purists will say “all of them” but no one will believe that. Most of us recreational golfers play something Jeff Smith calls “sort of golf”. We may take a Mulligan here and there. We may use that foot wedge a bit too often. We may forget to add penalty strokes. This week Those weekend Golf Guys talk about the rules that shouldn’t exist and maybe a few that don’t but should. Another fun,

S2 Ep175: When Doing It Right Feels Wrong

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/05/29

When doing it right feels wrong. So many of us have played this game for years, making certain kinds of shots badly. Using bad technique; the wrong grip; the wrong ball position, etc. And then we find a coach like Top 100 Teacher, Jeff Smith who shows us a simple and effective change that makes our shots so much more successful. We love the results but it just doesn’t feel right. So, do you practice the right way until it begins to feel normal or do you revert to the old technique that feels good

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/05/15

That makes the grass on your local golf course thick and hard to get through with a lower lofted golf club. Jeff gives us all a quick lesson on how to effectively extricate ourselves from a thick rough lie. It’s easy if you keep a few things that Jeff will explain in mind.

This week Those Weekend Golf Guys are live from the French Lick Resort’s Pete Dye Golf Course. We were there for the BiG10 Men’s Golf Championship. While we were there we, of course, saw some great golf and got to play, maybe not great golf but on great golf courses! We also spent some quality time talking to the new Head Pro at the Donald Ross Course at French Lick, one of the few female Head Pros in the country, former LPGA star Lori Atsedes. 26 wins on the LPGA tour and some terrific stories.

S2 Ep171: Visually Intimidating Golf Courses

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/05/01

There are some golf courses that scare the bejeezus out of you just by looking at them. There are golf holes that you have never been able to play well. This week Those Weekend Golf Guys examine the visual intimidation of golf courses. How do aesthetics screw with the perception of the average golfer and how badly are they affected? John and Jeff delve into this subject in their typical fun, funny, skewed view of the world

2022/04/24

Do I need new clubs? What clubs should I buy? What works best for me? How do I know? These were the questions that our guest, Connie Willis, asked us in an email. We thought it might be a good idea to get her on the show and talk about it. If she has those questions, then we know most of us also have those questions. Do we buy based on test results in magazines? Do we go to a fitting at our local club? There are so many questions, so many options. This week Jeff and John answer them all for

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/04/17

What good is having an accurate range finder on the golf course if you don’t know how far you hit each of your clubs? The answer is “no good”. In fact, it’s a waste. Whether you are using GPS or Lazer it doesn’t matter if you’re exactly 157 from the pin if you don’t know specifically what to hit to get 157. Jeff Smith explains exactly how to figure out the distance of all the clubs in your bag as only a Top 100 Golf Instructor can on this edition of Those Weekend Golf Guys

2022/04/10

It’s Masters Week. You watch the best golfers in the world playing and you can do nothing but admire their form, their abilities, the way they can manage great scores on a tough course in tough conditions. You study their form and think if you could just look like they do, then you could score like they do. WRONG! Can you imagine if we showed a still pic of Ted Williams as he made contact with a ball, or Michael Jordan as he hung in midair with his jump shot that that would be the right form to

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2022/03/06

Don’t nobody have time for that! Not good English but an important element to take to heart. The downswing happens, from start to contact, in about a quarter of a second. That is not enough time to realize your alignment may be off, or the swing path not right or any problem. Not enough time to notice a problem and definitely not enough time to fix any problem. That is why the pre-shot routine is so important. It is the one thing that helps you swing without making mistakes, swing and make proper

What the hell did I just do wrong? You think maybe you lifted your head up, but that’s not it really. You say “I pulled it”. But your club head was in the wrong position at contact. We don’t know what we don’t know. You can’t fix your mistakes until you know what mistakes you are making. Jeff explains the most usual mistakes we amateurs make and what causes those bad shots. So, now you can finally fix the damn things. Another fun, funny, entertaining and oh so educational edition of Those Weekend
