Those Weekend Golf Guys are always up for doing some good for their neighborhood. Back on Father’s day, a local group in Louisville called the 3AGA (African American Amateur Golf Association) held a Father’s day special event at one of Louisville’s outstanding City Owned Golf Courses, Shawnee Golf Course. The idea of the event was, in conjunction with The First Tee of Louisville, was to introduce neighborhood kids to the game of golf. They promoted it as a “Father Figure Day” celebration. Fathers, Uncles, Granddads and even next door neighbors; all father figures in the lives of these kids, brought the kids to the course to introduce them to the fun of the game. We had a great time hanging with the guys and the kids had an even better time. Listen to today’s episode and you will have a great time too.

This week Those Weekend Golf Guys share some more tips and tricks to make your very next round of golf more fun. We also have some ideas about how you can use the mental aspects of the game to your advantage. Next time you’re facing that guy you find hard to beat try this. Have his wife call him just before he tees off and say, “listen mister, I know what you’ve been doing and you’re in big trouble.” We guarantee you’ll beat him that time. There are lots of great idea on how to lower your score and have more fun with the game of golf in this week’s edition of Those Weekend Golf Guys Podcast. The Second Best Golf Show In The World!

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 different techniques for players who desire to improve to make the time to get out and practice enough to actually improve. Another fun, funny, and terrifically informative edition of the Second Best Gold Show In The World! Those Weekend Golf Guys

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, funny, entertaining episode of the Second Best Golf Show in the world. And welcome again to our sponsor, Draft Kings.

Listen to this week’s show and you will quickly be 40% better. Putting comprises 40% of your golf game. Jeff suggests you look at the cup like you would a basketball hoop atop a pole with no backboard. This is the best wat to get you pace correct. Since there are 4 ways to miss a putt, we have four ways to improve your putting. Four ways to eliminate 3 putts. And like magic, you are 40 better at golf.

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 but doesn’t work well? You might be surprised by a few of these stories.

Fix that slice once and for all! Yeah, we know you’ve tried everything. Well, you’ve tried everything but the right thing. This week, Jeff Smith will fix your slice. All you have to do is listen, maybe take a note or two. Jeff will tell you how to discern why you slice and the tell you, based on the why, the how to fix it.

This week on Those Weekend Golf Guys Radio Show we talk about rough. It’s late Spring. It’s been a rather wet Spring and a bit chilly too. 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. Also want o welcome Draft Kings in as a new sponsor. Listen for a great deal: place a $5 wager and get $100 in free plays.

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. You are going to love this hour of golf talk radio.

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

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 you!
