(00:01) Golf and Sports Banter
This chapter, we discuss the upcoming golf events at the Paris Olympics and share insights about notable golfers like Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele. We explore the benefits of pre-round massages, including deep tissue and stretching routines, and how they can improve flexibility and comfort. We also share a fascinating piece of sports trivia about Danny Jensen, who might become the first MLB player to play for both teams in the same game due to a unique situation involving a rain-suspended game.
(12:33) Alignment and Aim in Golf
This chapter covers the announcement of our upcoming podcast special, "Two Hoosiers and a Hong," featuring Scott Monroe, James Hong, and myself, which will be exclusive online content. We then transition into a lively discussion about the frustrations and common issues golfers face during tournament season. We talk about the importance of alignment in golf, how subtle changes can lead to significant improvements, and the psychological aspects of trusting one's new alignment under pressure. James shares his approach to helping golfers correct their aim and alignment, emphasizing that understanding shot shape and target placement can often resolve issues without drastic swing changes.

This chapter takes us to Harbor Links Golf Course in Port Washington, New York, where we explore the bustling golf scene between Bethpage and Manhattan. We discuss the high demand for lessons at Harbor Links, where James, the instructor, is fully booked, especially during the summer. We touch on the logistical challenges and conveniences for New Yorkers traveling with golf clubs and the competitive environment among top golf instructors in the area. Additionally, we share anecdotes about the unique aspects of living in New York, including the high cost of parking in Manhattan and the ease of accessing golf courses via public transportation. Finally, we humorously reflect on the difference in lifestyle and traffic between New York and other regions like South Florida and the Midwest.
