Tony and longtime collaborator Matt Rudy sit down with Richard Hughes — an optometrist, sports vision researcher, and author of Visual Edge Golf Performance — to unpack something almost nobody talks about in golf instruction: eye dominance.

Richard breaks down "type one" vs. "type two" dominance, why 53% of the best players in the world (including Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods) are cross-dominant compared to just 30% of the general population, and why forcing a player into a "textbook" setup can wreck a swing that their eyes have quietly compensated for over years.

Includes a simple test you can do at home to find your own dominant eye.

Tony and Jackson spend a day at Dutchman's Pipe working with a full slate of tour players headed into Q-school season — Rafa Campos, Ty Gingrich, James Earl, and more — and break down the four things that actually move the needle, for tour pros and weekend golfers alike: dialing in posture and setup, building a real pre-shot process, learning not to react to every miss, and actually understanding what you're working on and why.

Plus Colby's "electric fence" drill for fixing early extension, and a great story about keeping junior golf in perspective.

This week Tony is joined by Coach Justin Parsons — mentor to Ben Carr, Brandon Grace, Blades Brown, and Lucas Glover — on a Golf Live discussion to break down how tour players actually build their wedge game.

Forget chasing perfect distances: JP walks through the "15-foot rule" (why even the best players on tour average just 15 feet from the hole inside 150 yards), how to build a wedge system around 5-yard gaps instead of guessing, and the "3 L rule" for reading any short game shot — Lie, Land, Leave.

Plus a great story about a young player learning the hard way that temperature and altitude change everything.

This week on Tour Coach: the one word that fixes more golf games than any swing tip ever will — awareness.

Tony sits down with longtime PGA Tour caddie Donald "Coop" Cooper, instructor Wayne Flint, and a PGA Tour mental performance coach Dr. Greg Cartin ("Doc") at Dutchman's Pipe to break down why most golfers don't struggle from bad mechanics — they struggle from not knowing what they're actually capable of.

From knowing your real carry distances to understanding your start line to why "it's just a 4-iron" has ruined more rounds than any bad swing, this one applies whether you're a 30-handicapper or a tour pro.

What does a tour-level coach actually see when an everyday golfer swings the club?

In this week's Tour Coach, Tony Ruggiero sits down live from The Creek Club in Locust Valley, New York after a full day of teaching members alongside Morgan Hale, Jackson Koert, and others.

The roundtable digs into the mistakes almost every amateur golfer repeats, how a great coach finds the one fix that actually changes ball flight, and the practice habits that separate golfers who improve from golfers who stay stuck.

You will hear why simplifying beats a swing overhaul, why watching great teachers work is the fastest way to grow as a coach, how to tell whether a golfer physically cannot make a move or simply does not know how, the Paul Azinger wedge system for owning 30 to 70 yards, the practice hack almost no amateur will use (tee up your iron shots), and the three by five card trick that makes every lesson stick. Plus a shout out to Shuby after a big win in India.

Struggling with inconsistent ball contact or a "reverse pivot" in your golf swing?

In this lesson, Tony Ruggiero from The DewSweeper joins forces with Conner Luke to break down the most common mistakes recreational golfers make, specifically lateral slide and poor balance.

Learn actionable drills using the Pivot Pack—including band-assisted/resisted turns, single-leg stability exercises, and the "punching drill"—to help you build a solid foundation, stabilize your lower body, and finally get that low point in front of the ball.

Whether you are a weekend warrior or looking to sharpen your technique, these fundamentals are designed to help you strike the ball more solidly every time.
