July 26, 2024 The Secret of Scoring from Our Short Game Academy with Terry "The Wedge Guy" Koehler
GSfMO#346 July 14, 2012 Terry Koehler, our resident Short Game Academy expert talks about the importance of a sound fundamental technique that includes balance, grip, pulling the club and more. He says that you should be proud if someone says you swing like a girl. LPGA players are scoring machines and he thinks that we should all strive to mimic their short game. This has nothing to do with Pink Floyd, but he's a huge advocate of "Hey Teachers (and parents) Leave the Kids Alone!", especially when it comes to golf. "You have to learn golf from the hole backward, not the tee forward!"

July 23, 2024The Power and Future of Storytelling in Golf Media with Matt Ginella
#957: Summary Writer and producer, Matt Ginella returns to discuss various topics in the golf world, including their visits to L.A.B. Golf, the success of the company, and their personal experiences with L.A.B. putters. They also touch on Bryson DeChambeau's evolution as a golfer and his impact on the game, as well as the role of storytelling in golf media. Finally, they explore the idea of bifurcation in golf rules and equipment and share their thoughts on the matter. Matt emphasizes the importance of keeping the game accessible and enjoyable for all levels of players. He also discusses his work with Fire Pit Productions, documenting golf course restorations and renovations.
Takeaways
Lab Golf is experiencing significant growth and success in the golf industry.
Bryson DeChambeau has evolved as a golfer and become more likable, thanks to his YouTube channel and his departure from the structured PGA Tour.
Storytelling plays a crucial role in golf media and can have a profound impact on listeners.
There is a debate about whether there should be different rules and equipment for professional golfers and everyday golfers.
Matt Ginella believes that bifurcation is unnecessary and that the focus should be on the growth and enjoyment of the game for all players. The issue of golf ball distance and the potential need for a rollback is a topic of debate in the golf community.
While some golf courses may appear irrelevant due to the distance players can hit the ball, it is important to consider the impact on the paying consumer.
There is a natural rollback that occurs with age and physical restrictions, which already limits distance for many players.
The game of golf should be accessible and enjoyable for players of all levels, and efforts should be made to keep it that way.
Matt Ginella's work with Fire Pit Productions focuses on documenting golf course restorations and renovations, highlighting the importance of preserving and enhancing these community assets.
