This week on Golf Smarter Mulligans is the final episode in our annual Tony Manzoni series to help you launch your new golf season. This episode, called “There’s no pressure in golf, it’s all perception” covers topics like choosing the right club off the tee, balance, and how we may be putting too much emphasis on distance over accuracy. Tony’s book, The Lost Fundamental, One Simple Move, Better Golf Forever, which was out of print when he passed away, is once again available on Amazon including Kindle format. Tony’s video of the same name was also out of circulation, but can now be seen online.
