My guest for this episode is Sean Kennedy. Sean is the Director of Instruction at the Cliffs Community in the Carolina mountains, one of the most picturesque areas in the US and he works with all levels of players from club golfers to elite players. 

During this podcast we get to chat about many things in golf and we look to help the club golfer with narrowing the gap between doing and knowing. We get to discuss some of Seans favourite drills and tasks for players as well as his passion for on course and playing sessions. 

In the coaching segment, we delve into Sean's inspirations, address queries from the Podcast community, and explore whether his instruction focuses on technical adjustments or skill enhancement. We also touch upon topics such as short game strategies and challenging moments. Finally, we talk about Sean's collaboration with other like minded coaches  in organizing an annual two-day seminar offering advanced education for any golf teacher wanting to enhance their knowledge. 

For some of you, this may be your first introduction to Sean. I like to delve into the coaching world when I have the opportunity, meeting new people during my travels to learn from them in various ways. Sometimes, I feel compelled when getting to know individuals who may not be as well-known to highlight their work and skill. While you may not hold Sean's words in as high regard as those of Butch Harmon or Mark Blackburn, underestimating them would be a missed opportunity. Sean is one of the most genuine, intelligent, respectful, and exceptional coaches I've ever encountered. He looks at the human and the golf swing as an ever-interacting system and one which must be treated as such…it would be easy to look at the golf swing as simply  numbers on a screen but Sean has uncanny knack for looking past those and bringing out the skills in the person as opposed to bringing the skills to the person…
