Could a mere 10 yards make all the difference in your golf game? Join us for the first of our three-part distance series as Lou Stagner and I discuss how gaining distance leads to lower scores! Drawing from 600 shots worth of data from the Arccos database, we break down real-world examples and insights showing the benefits of speed training and fitness programs aimed at boosting mobility and strength, giving you practical steps to add those vital extra yards.

Imagine improving your strokes gained off the tee simply by increasing your driving distance by 5% year over year. 94% of golfers have done just that, and we're here to bust the myth that more distance means fewer fairways hit. With data from PGA Tour players since 1983, we discuss how speed training can actually enhance your swing mechanics, leading to straighter and more efficient shots. Our conversation shifts the focus from accuracy to the importance of avoiding penalties, to take your course management to the next level!

Finally, Lou and I are talking custom-fitting and how homing in on your ideal club fit can improve your performance by leagues. From adjusting driver shafts to tweaking grip sizes, discover how minor changes can yield major improvements.
