  • Chunking & Blading Your Wedges? Here’s Why

    Few shots in golf are more frustrating than standing over a simple wedge shot and either chunking it short of the green or blading it over the back. The good news? Those two misses often come from many of the same mistakes.

    In this episode of Goforth & Golf, Steve breaks down the 5 biggest reasons golfers chunk and thin their wedge shots and, more importantly, what you can do to fix them.

    Steve covers low-point control, weight distribution, early release and scooping, deceleration, and the setup mistakes that can ruin your contact before the swing even begins.

    If you've ever wondered why your practice swings feel perfect but your wedge shots are unpredictable when the ball is actually there, this episode is for you.

    The goal is simple: fewer chunks, fewer blades, more solid contact—and more confidence every time you have a wedge in your hands.

  • The Power of Golf: Lessons From the Game That Carry Into Life / Episode 139

    In this episode of Goforth & Golf, Steve sits down with Brooklin Powers for a conversation about the power of golf and how the lessons we learn through the game can carry far beyond the golf course.

    Brooklin shares her passion for golf, her experiences in the game, and the ways golf can teach valuable life lessons about confidence, perspective, focus, perseverance, and believing in yourself.

    Throughout the conversation, Steve and Brooklin also discuss themes from her books, including Where’s the Golf Ball?, Finding the Green of the Gulf, and The Secret of the Pinecone Path, and how those stories connect golf with lessons that kids, and adults, can use in everyday life.

    At the heart of the episode is a simple message:

    Golf gives you opportunities to learn on and off the course.

    Whether you're a golfer, a parent, a coach, or simply someone who believes sports can teach us something bigger than how to play the game, this is an episode about the impact golf can have on confidence, character, and life.

    Join us for a fun and inspiring conversation with Brooklin Powers on Goforth & Golf.
