Those Weekend Golf Guys

This week on Those Weekend Golf Guys we welcome in a former PGA Tour player, golf course owner, and professional club fitter, Jim ward. Jim is now the “titleist guy”. A good guy to know. We all talk about the basic mistakes most amateur, recreational golfers make and why they have trouble scoring well. So, John offers copious amounts of pizza for both Jim and Jeff Smith, if they can help him shave 6 stokes off his very next round. Well, they both take the challenge and assure us they can shave 6 strokes off John’s average score by his next round easily. And they can do the same for you. Listen how.

Connie Willis is the host of her own streaming shows BLUE ROCK TALK, as well as the weekend host for the overnight mega-hit Coast To Coast on over 600 radio stations across the country. Connie loves to play golf. One of the reasons she loves to play golf is on the off chance she may just spot Big Foot out there in the woods of a golf course. No, really, Connie is into Big Foot, UFOs, Aliens, and things that go bump in the night. While she tries to convince Jeff Smith that Big Foot is real, he tries to convince her she can actually hit an iron in the air and doesn’t have to settle for worm burners, no mater how often she tries to convince herself she is just “keeping it under the wind”.

Those Weekend Golf Guys this week reminds us all about those on course adjustments we often time forget to make. You know, the time you forget to take a lower club when faced with an uphill lie because of the added loft. Or not adjusting your grip on the club while setting up to do a shot from a severe downhill lies. There are many, many reasons your basic set up and normal club selection will be all wrong. Make sure you listen closely this week to Jeff to remember when and where all of those are. Another fun, funny, and totally entertaining edition of Those Weekend Golf Guys Golf Podcast

This week on Those Weekend Golf Guys the guys talk about golf travel and how to make it easier but the bulk of the show covers Golf Math. Yes, add ‘em up!

You know you will have 14 second shots and (probably) 4 third shots. 54 total before you even get on the course. How you score is what you do after those 54 shots you have to take.

What Is An Amateur? In the days of Bobby Jones it was a golfer who did not compete for money. It was a golfer who played simply for the love of the game. Maybe they were great golfers, like Bobby Jones. Or maybe not great golfers like Linda Zender (she finished last in her club championship this year). Today, however, it seems that “Amateurs” are simply golfers who haven’t yet turned Pro! Is there any place(s) for the average amateur golfer to compete these days? We talk about all the ways even a high handicapper can compete and have fun with Amateur Golf.

This week Those Weekend Golf Guys are live from Prairie View Golf Course in Carmel, Indiana for the Capital Golf Amateur Tour’s Wounded Warrior Classic. During this week’s show we talk to Jim Fuquay from Prairie View. He explains the course, the history. It’s a Robert Trent Jones design and is the home of the Indiana State High School championships every year. A great course. Then we talk to Luke Douglas, a Peer Partner with wounded Warrior Project who found golf after he, too, was wounded in Iraq. After his first three rounds he realized this was such a great game he joined his neighborhood club. Living in Evansville, Indian his home club is Victoria National! And of course, Jeff Smith, one of America’s Top 100 Golf Instructors is here with some sage advice. Especially if you’re playing a great course for the first time take 2 shots to get to the green and make them the 2 easiest shots you can manage. Rather than long and short or short then long make them easy then easy. Another fun, funny, entertaining golf talk radio show.
