I shorten it to the equivalent of a putting stroke. It makes the game a little longer, maybe six hours. But at least I’m in play and can find the ball….
I play like this now. Don't go for the hero shot all the time, middle of the green - course management is key and I've found myself being far more consistent tee to green. Putting..........well that's another story 😂
I find most amateurs add strokes by bad decisions not bad swings. This is a circular problem because a shot in a bad place leads to a miracle attempt which leads a shot outside of their skill set and then another poor shot follows.
It’s funny the discussion is about golf iq and they talk about average carry distances but do not account for distance variance - knowing the average without factoring variance is not all too useful because for the same average carry a player may still come up short 30 or even 40% of times.
Stop trying to make birdies and pars and accept that Bogey is a good score. play for nett par instead Nett par is adjusting your par.On those holes wher you get a handicap stroke. So being on for 2 on par 3 3 on par 4 4 on par 5.
What about laying up to your favorite yardage into a short par 4 or a long par 5? Most amateurs don’t have a 40, 50 60 yard half wedge/feel shot. Laying back to a more full shot like 100, 120, 140 whatever they may be will give you a better shot at shooting a lower score.
Interesting strategy for a podcast having 2 guys who are both trying to be the expert in the room. Neither are really listening to each other which I thinks blunts the message
I've found that shortening my backswing a little works well when I am struggling.

Golf IQ lowered my handicap way more than my physical skills have. This channel has been a huge help for that

LKD - you are creating some absolutely first-class content, give us more. Thank you.
Oh cool, it’s Reed Howard. Looking good, dude! Very knowledgeable guy and I hope to see more of him here!
First step is a driver less than 45". So many of our fellow weekend duffers spray drives everywhere with a 45 1/2" or 45 3/4" driver.
2:37 my local course doesn’t have a range. It can be like a bag of skittles the first few tee shots.
The first key in playing golf is knowing your own limits....and when in doubt, don't be too proud to tee off with a 7-iron.
No, no it's not. Read "every shot counts"

No. See like virtually everything written about golf in the past three years. :)
Statistically insignificant in terms of improving score, especially for amateurs.
Your scoring average is lower when you are closer to the hole and amateurs don’t have the ability the hit the ball to leave a specific distance in.
When I aim to hit trouble, I avoid it
That red haired dude looks like a young Ron Howard, Wow! his surname is also Howard, Oh, he's Ron Howards' son.
This dude has got to be Ron Howard's son, right?
The Red headed bloke stop saying like every sentence ,very annoying.

I mean, that’s certainly one take. Strange.
I bet they went through their points before they started recording and they agreed on this format
