S1 Ep10: Its The Simple Things

Those Weekend Golf Guys ·

2019/03/18

It goes without saying. But we're gonna say it anyway! Jeff exlplains how the simple things, the things we tend to take for granted, are often the things that are complicating our ability to play this game well. For instance, something as simple as the grip can dictate the length and direction of any shot. If your grip is off, the shot will not go where you're intending. On the other hand, subtle changes to your grip can help in shot shaping and playing like you really know what you're doing!
