Tour Coach wraps up the VIP Elite Performance Retreat at Dutchman's Pipe — and Tony Ruggiero is joined by Ryan Webb and special guest Charles Woods, who made the trip all the way from London to be part of it. Charles shares what made this retreat unlike anything he's seen in golf instruction: six coaches in the same space, no egos, no alpha posturing — just a shared commitment to developing players at every level.

From Kevin Kirk's intent-based practice model, to Wayne Flint's ability to deliver complex changes in language anyone can understand, to Dr. Greg Cartin's organic approach to performance psychology — the guys break down the key takeaways any golfer or coach can apply. Plus, Tony sounds off on why "swing or swing" comparisons are doing junior golfers more harm than good.
