  • Why Your Body Is the Real Reason Behind Your Swing Flaws w/ Dave Phillips

    Why Your Body Is the Real Reason Behind Your Swing Flaws w/ Dave Phillips
    Apr 13 2026
    In this episode, we’re joined by renowned coach and co-founder of the Titleist Performance Institute, Dave Phillips, for a deep dive into how the body truly drives the golf swing. We explore why there’s no single “perfect” swing and how understanding a player’s physical capabilities is critical to building a repeatable, efficient motion. Dave shares behind-the-scenes insights from working with elite players like Jon Rahm, including how limitations can actually become strengths when properly managed. We also discuss the role of technology, biomechanics, and AI in the future of coaching—and where human coaching still matters most. Dave also discusses how he co-founded For Wellness with Phil Mickelson, and the benefits of the products for health and recovery. If you’ve ever wondered why your swing changes or how to build more consistency, this conversation will change how you think about improvement.

  • You’re Thinking About Golf Completely Backwards

    You’re Thinking About Golf Completely Backwards
    Apr 6 2026
    To learn more about Adam's 8-week course, visit this link: https://www.adamyounggolf.com/8wk/ This episode explores why many golfers struggle to score well—not because of their swing, but because of how they think on the course. We break down the concept of “fast vs. slow thinking” and explain how most players use these mental systems in the wrong order, leading to poor decisions and unnecessary mistakes. You’ll hear real on-course examples of how emotional, instinctive decisions can derail a round, and why better players rely on more deliberate thinking before the shot. We also discuss the dangers of overthinking during execution and how it can lead to paralysis over the ball. The goal is to help you recognize your own patterns and make smarter decisions that lead to lower scores. Thank you to our show sponsors LMNT, Rhoback, and Ethos: Staying properly hydrated is critical for performance, and electrolyte imbalances can lead to fatigue, cramps, and brain fog—exactly what you don’t want on the golf course. That’s why we recommend LMNT, a zero-sugar electrolyte drink trusted by athletes and everyday golfers alike. They now offer a convenient 12 oz sparkling version with great flavors like pineapple, lemonade, and black cherry—perfect to grab before a round or workout.

  • Why Most Golfers Never Break 80 (The Data Is Clear)

    Why Most Golfers Never Break 80 (The Data Is Clear)
    Mar 23 2026
    This episode dives into the 2026 Shot Scope data report to uncover why most golfers struggle to break 80. Using data from hundreds of thousands of rounds, the discussion reveals that scoring isn’t about making more birdies, but about avoiding costly mistakes and managing difficult situations more effectively. It walks through each part of the game—off the tee, approach play, short game, and putting—to show how small inefficiencies compound into higher scores. The episode also challenges common misconceptions about what it takes to improve, highlighting why many golfers get stuck in the same scoring range. Ultimately, it reframes breaking 80 as a problem of consistency, positioning, and damage control—not perfect golf.

I really enjoyed this episode as I prepared and set my goals for 2023. It helped me create the proper expectations and mindset for the upcoming year.

Although it wasn't aside in the podcast, it reminded me of the book 4 disciplines of execution and to focus on lead measurements, and the lag measurements will take care of themselves. Set the goals on things I can control, like exercise, practice, mindset, and my handicap will take care of itself.

Best quote of the podcast was "Long term success is the aggregate of marginal gain" by Dave Brailsford. This is a great way to frame the improvements for my golf game.
