Your performance grows from some things you learn only in the contest, not in training. You can learn to spot right cues and turn them to advantage faster than the opposition. But just as important is the skill to spot false cues faster and to ignore them

To change something in your swing you generally need to practice the extreme opposite. You can’t go from a slice to a straight shot, you must practice a hook first. Soon your swing will settle in the middle. To get rid of a hook practice a slice not a small draw #paddysgolftips

Can you hit it over the hotel like Rory?
Give it a try in the simulator ⛳️💪

My 5-handicap friend:
"I can't believe I made bogey from 100 yards in the middle of the fairway."
Me:
"From 100 yards in the fairway, 5-caps make bogey or worse about 27% of the time."

Almost everyone’s exercise time is limited.
My recommendation is to prioritize resistance training.
Then do as much walking as you can.

Thank you for all of the birthday messages. My birth certificate says I’m 86 but that’s hard to believe! I’m grateful to still feel full of life and cherish each new day and year. I’m looking forward to more time with loved ones, more rounds of golf, and yes, more gym sessions.

Knowing what to practice is important, but then you have to know how to practice it.

A golfer can bogey half their holes on a par-72 course and shoot in the 70s if they birdie only two holes (or eagle one).
Want to shoot low scores? Make a lot of pars and rarely make doubles or worse. Birdies happen. Stop trying to force them.

From 15 feet PGA Tour pros make ~22% of their putts.
Scratch players make ~16%.
For amateur players, the primary objective outside 15 feet is minimizing three-putts.
Speed control is key!

One of the best players in the world is using a shaft in his driver that’s more flexible than mine. How does that work? Because shaft fitting is more than just club speed. We take pride in our stock shafts and it’s exciting to see @Louis57TM using one!
How did @Louis57TM end up with a “stock” driver setup? Go inside the fitting process to understand how we custom-fit the smoothest swing in golf with a #G425 LST and our 55-gram Alta CB Slate (Stiff) shaft: bit.ly/382g51T #FittingMatters
