Your short game is where 60% or more of your strokes come from on the golf course (and that's if you're really good).  So it goes without saying that this skill has to be in top form.  Brandon Stooksbury is back to teach us all how to build our short game in layers so we can take that aspect of our game and make it the strength it needs to be

Building the foundation to your short game

EPISODE FEATURED GUEST: BRANDON STOOKSBURY

Brandon is back to talk about some research that he has done on the road to writing a brand new book that he’s got coming out called The Wedge Book: An Owner’s Manual for your Short Game. Brandon's always been good with his short game and he’s done a lot of research about it.  Now he’s put it all together in an organized process on how to build a very strong short game from the foundation up.

IN THIS PODCAST EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:


  • Why Brandon got into teaching about the short game

  • Practical steps in how to assess and execute shots of your short game

  • An exclusive sneak peek into Brandon’s book

  • What Brandon includes in every chapter of his new book and why

  • Brandon’s new favorite quotes:

    • “The ardent golfer would play Mt. Everest if somebody would put a flagstick on top. Golf is not a fair game, so why should I build a fair golf course?” ~ Pete Dye

    • “The best way to predict the future is simply to invent it.”

    • “If we have to motivate pro football players to play football, we need to get new football players.”

    • “Vision without execution is just a hallucination”



  • Brandon’s parting piece of guidance
