(00:00) Discussing Golf Instruction and Trends This chapter features a lively discussion about golf, the heat in Florida compared to Nantucket, and the challenges of playing on long, wet courses. We explore the importance of proper golf instruction, expressing concern over unqualified instructors giving poor advice and suggesting the need for a governing body to ensure quality. We also discuss the impact of social media on a golf instructor's reputation and the value of having a large online following, which can significantly increase their rates and demand. Personal anecdotes are shared about experiences with well-known golf instructors and the significance of tailoring fundamentals to individual players' body types. Additionally, we touch on the return of certain golf teaching styles and the importance of listening and learning from seasoned professionals. (08:37) Discussion on Golf Tips and Techniques This chapter brings us into the world of golf instruction and the impact of online tutorials and teaching tools. We discuss the challenges faced by those who rely solely on videos and magazines for golf improvement, sharing anecdotes about how this approach can sometimes lead to confusion rather than progress. Highlighting practical tips from golf publications, we touch on techniques that anyone can try, like using tees for practice or the correct way to utilize impact bags with bubble wrap to improve swing accuracy. The conversation also explores the significance of paying attention to the sound and feel of a golf shot, even at the professional level. We wrap up with some light-hearted banter about nicknames and the humorous quirks of the golfing community, illustrating the camaraderie and humor inherent in the sport. (13:15) Improving Impact With Lightweight Training This chapter explores innovative approaches to improving golf swing techniques using unconventional tools. I share insights on how hitting different materials, like deflated balls and car wash sponges, can enhance a golfer's swing without the risk of injury or damaging equipment. By incorporating lightweight materials such as bubble wrap and inflatable rubber balls into impact bags, we create a practice environment that encourages aggressive yet safe swings. Additionally, we highlight the benefits of using older clubs with metal shafts to prevent damage to modern graphite clubs. We also discuss how professional golfers train with focus on functional strength rather than aesthetics, underscoring the importance of effective impact training over traditional bodybuilding. (18:00) The Impact of Fitness on Golf This chapter focuses on the evolving nature of golf training, highlighting the shift from traditional methods to modern, results-oriented approaches. We explore how contemporary golfers are training not just for skill, but for physical resilience and power, akin to athletes in more physically demanding sports. Through anecdotes about Rory McIlroy and other young athletes, we emphasize the importance of strength and injury prevention, while also addressing the risks of overtraining, as seen in young golfers experiencing injuries typically found in older players. We discuss the implications of this intense training mindset, likening it to the sacrifice-for-success mentality seen in other professional sports, and question the sustainability and health implications for those not at the top echelon. With insights from Jeff Smith and Scott Monroe, we examine how these approaches impact golfers' longevity and propose strategies for balancing ambition with health preservation. (26:59) Debate on Golf Instruction Liability This chapter explores the intricacies and challenges faced by performance coaches in the world of sports, particularly golf. We examine the potential liability coaches might face if their techniques inadvertently lead to player injuries, highlighting the importance of aligning coaching methods with individual player needs. The conversation emphasizes that it's not always about the coach but the information being conveyed and how it matches with the athlete's physical capabilities. The discussion also touches on the unique sounds and techniques of skilled golfers, noting the awe-inspiring noise of a well-struck ball. Furthermore, we explore how high-speed video analysis, while insightful, can sometimes mislead golfers into overanalyzing movements that occur in fractions of a second, potentially harming their performance. Through anecdotes and examples, we underscore the balance between using advanced technology for improvement and maintaining an understanding of the sport's fundamental mechanics. (32:30) Golf Instruction and Trends This chapter explores the impact of technology on golf instruction, emphasizing that the over-reliance on slow-motion analysis may lead to incorrect assumptions about a player's intentions and biomechanics. We discuss the importance of focusing on motion, rhythm, and timing rather than the minutiae of swing mechanics, which can often lead to misinformation and potentially harmful techniques. I stress the need for a more personalized approach to instruction, suggesting that golfers consult with experts like Kelly Stenzel or EA Tishler for assessments that consider individual physical capabilities. This personalized approach helps golfers identify what techniques are suitable for them, enhancing their ability to improve without risking injury.

(00:00) Golf Tips & Lobster Dinner Experiences This chapter takes us on a journey through a recent golf outing where John encountered an older golfer struggling with his iron shots. While John suspected ball position might be the issue, he humorously redirected the golfer to Jeff for expert advice. Before diving into golf tips, we switch gears to talk about an unexpected culinary adventure involving live Maine lobsters. Jeff recounts receiving the lobsters from a friend, not realizing they would arrive alive, and the experience of having them cooked to perfection by a club chef. This anecdote transitions into a plug for the Portland Lobster Company, where you can order live lobsters shipped directly to you, accompanied by a reminder to keep those rubber bands on their claws. This episode is a delightful mix of golf advice and culinary surprises, wrapped up with laughter and camaraderie. (10:38) Improving Iron Play Golf Techniques This chapter focuses on improving your golf game by mastering posture and balance, particularly when facing challenges with your iron shots. We explore the importance of maintaining a consistent and balanced posture for every club, from drivers to irons, and how this can significantly impact your swing and ball contact. I share practical tips on setting up your stance, such as checking your grip, ensuring your body and club are in balance, and aligning the ball position correctly relative to your stance. We also address common mistakes golfers make, like altering posture for different clubs, and emphasize that achieving one singular best posture is key to consistent performance on the course. (19:35) Practice Techniques for Better Golf Swing This chapter explores innovative techniques for improving your golf swing without relying on a ball, such as using pennies or tees to focus on swing mechanics and reduce tension. By shifting the focus away from the ball's destination, golfers can improve their swing fluidity and precision. We also share a personal anecdote about working with golfers on the course, highlighting the importance of real-world practice in improving performance. Additionally, we touch on the intricacies of the FedEx finals and the complexities of seeding players, drawing parallels with NCAA tournament seeding. The conversation offers insights into the challenges of designing a fair championship format while emphasizing the unpredictability and excitement inherent in golf. (25:13) Fairway Bunkers and Downhill Lies This chapter takes us onto the golf course at Talking Rock, where I engage with two golfers struggling with fairway bunkers, fairway balls below their feet, and downhill lies. We focus on practical strategies to tackle these challenges, starting with a hands-on session where we explore how to effectively manage a fairway bunker. We discuss the importance of assessing the sand's firmness, selecting the right club—often a hybrid for its wide sole plate in soft sand—and adjusting foot positioning for stability. I highlight the decision-making process before swinging, emphasizing the importance of ball positioning and bracing oneself on sand. This practical approach results in improved performance, demonstrating how informed decisions can lead to successful shots. (40:01) Achieving Perfect Swing Plane Sensation This chapter explores the transformative experience of a golfer who discovered the power of the "hinge and thump" technique to improve his swing. We discuss how introducing this method, which emphasizes getting the thumbs up on the backswing and then thumping the ground, helped the golfer hit better shots across various clubs—from wedges to drivers. Initially focused on steepening the swing, the golfer learned to prioritize the outcome of the ball over the appearance of his swing, realizing that despite feeling steep, his swing was perfectly on plane. This realization led to a breakthrough in his 40-year golfing journey, highlighting the importance of feel versus reality in achieving consistency and accuracy. (43:37) Improving Golf Swing Plane Simplified This chapter highlights the transformative impact of Jeff Smith's golf coaching, as shared through a story of a grateful client who improved his game after a lesson. We explore the nuances of golf swings with different clubs, focusing on the feeling of the shaft's vertical position. As we transition from wedges to longer clubs and fairway woods, I explain how the perceived verticality of the shaft can change and what that means for your swing.

We've been talking, and we've had a few suggestions from wolfpackers also, about doing a Talk Birdie To Me golf day of some kind. Maybe a Talk Birdie tournament where wolfpackers can play, Nick and Mark play, Dan might even have a crack (massive hack) and we put a feed on, have a catchup, a live Q&A, few stories - and Mark, as the only member of the team who has played Links Hope Island, reckons that would be a perfect place to do it.There's only one slight challenge we've not run it by the Links Hope Island team, so it might go pear-shaped....but we'll try to get the boss on the pod, and see if we can convince him that it's a good idea.Okay back to the feedback. Message from Jonathon about playing in bad weather, which leads to a Mark story about the legendary Peter Thomson - it's a ripper. Message from Matt who played with 9-year old Jasper in the Rossdale Open, and got absolutely rinsed.Damian has a question for Nick about his Top 5 finishes from last week, he reckons Nick missed an obvious one, and Mark doesn't miss a chance to use Grok again....he has an addiction to Grok, it's quite ridiculous, and Grok proves on this occasion to be completely useless.And we finish with a question from Fezz about amateur golfers and handicaps.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best.

Dan Landman is the founder of Spoiler Golf and the inventor of the Spoiler OG Putter. The idea for Spoiler Golf came from putting with a wedge and, by extension, learning how pure the ball rolled from the leading edge of a Wedge vs the traditional “flat face” of a putter. Dan and Spoiler Golf believe a better roll of the golf ball unlocks a better putting experience, and so they set out to change the face of putting for everybody. Dan's suspicion of a purer roll of the ball coming off the leading edge of a club vs the face of a putter was confirmed with research measuring the skid and roll of golf ball.  He and his engineer/designer doubled down on their efforts and built a number of "Leading Edge" putters.  Eventually after much trial and error they settled on the Spoiler OG - a putter where form truly met function. Dan explains the Leading Edge technology as he introduces the Spoiler Putter.  He also addresses: The importance of putting and the role it plays in lowering scores How the Leading Edge technology works How Leading Edge technology enhances focus and concentration on the process of excecution on the greens Impact location for success in distance control and accuracy  Mitigating the yips with Leading Edge technology, and How the Spoiler gives instant feedback for quicker, more purpose-driven learning.

Chuck Quinton is a respected golf instructor and the founder of "The Rotary Swing" golf swing learning system - a system that is based on human anatomy, physics, golf swing mechanics and how the brain learns new motor movement patterns. Chuck operates the Rotary Swing Academy in Orlando Florida, is active on YouTube and has also authored three golf instruction books.  He joins Mark Immelman to discuss his Rotary Swing approach to instruction and also share his GOAT Code to striking the golf ball more powerfully and consistently. The GOAT Code is based off Quinton's exhaustive research on Tiger Woods' golf swing and what it feels like to swing like Tiger Woods.  As Quinton dives into the approach to better Woods-like golf swings he talks about 4 elements - Consistency, Control, Compression and Confidence. He also elaborates on the following game improvement topics: The big picture golf swing idea for better ballstriking Efficient power production The "Goat" delivery position Learning good clubface control with the trail-hand Golf and Baseball swing similarities Repetition for long-term success, and A Balance Drill for productive golf-swing practice. Chuck also demonstrates a number of swing positions and moves so it is worthwhile to watch this podcast on YouTube once you have listened to it.  Search and subscribe to Mark Immelman on YouTube to find this podcast and more.
