This week on Season 12, Episode 21 Part 1 of Next on the Tee, I've got a fantastic lineup of four fun and insightful guests that I'm excited to share with you. They're sure to spark your interest, maybe raise an eyebrow or two, and quite possibly have you thinking, “I need to connect with that guy.” Leading things off, as always, is our Resident Director of Instruction, Tom Patri. We caught up with TP just as he was wrapping up a member trip to Cabot Citrus Farms in Brooksville, Florida—so yes, we might be delaying his dinner and bedtime just a bit, so he's a little extra cranky. Tom's also gearing up for his annual golf marathon to support a great cause. Last year, he played an incredible 153 holes before running out of daylight. Head over to his Instagram page to learn more and consider pledging whatever makes sense for you. In our chat, we cover Justin Thomas's big win at Hilton Head, take an early look ahead to the Ryder Cup, and debate whether today's advanced equipment is helping make the game more accessible, less frustrating, a major reason why our game at all levels is packed with more good players than in the persimmon wood and wound ball era. After TP, I'm joined by Golf Magazine Top 100 Instructor and Golf Digest Top 50 in Florida, Mike Malizia from Admirals Cove in Jupiter. Mike shares some great drills to help improve your short game, explains why he doesn't teach hitting up on the ball with the driver, and encourages us to trust our feel rather than overthinking every swing. It's a loaded show, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did putting it together. Come back for Part 2 featuring certified Hypnotherapist Paul Salter and PGA Tour Legend Hal Sutton.
On this special Masters Post Game edition of Next on the Tee, we look back on an unforgettable week at Augusta National, both from the grounds and from the booth. I kick things off by recapping the final round of the Augusta National Women's Amateur, where Spain's Carla Bernat Escuder fired a final round 68 to capture the title by one shot over 16-year-old American Asterisk Talley. I also spotlight standout performances by rising stars Eila Galitsky and Lottie Woad—young talents whose names we're sure to hear more in the years to come. Then it's on to one of the most thrilling Masters final rounds in recent memory, as Rory McIlroy overcame ghosts of past collapses, a double on 13, and a missed opportunity on 18 to ultimately defeat Justin Rose in a dramatic playoff. With that win, Rory became just the sixth player in history to complete the career Grand Slam. My guests and I walk through every twist and turn of Rory's journey and what this victory means for his legacy. I welcome back two fan favorites to break it all down—Resident Director of Instruction Tom Patri and 17-time winner between the PGA & Champions Tours Mark Calcavecchia. Calc takes us back to his own near miss at Augusta and the shot by Sandy Lyle that denied him a green jacket. Together, we talk about the magic of this year's tournament, from Rory immediately losing his lead on the first hole, gaining it back 2 holes later, losing it again on 13, more missed putts, throwing it away on 18 and ultimately getting the gorilla off his back. We also preview what's ahead for the rest of the major season. Thank you for pressing play and taking the journey with us.

On this week's show, we kick things off with our regular monthly visit from The Confidence Doctor, Dr. Bob Winters. Doc shares insight into the incredible success his junior players are having, including several competing in the Augusta National Women's Amateur. One standout is Megha Ganne, who set a first-round record with a 63 at Champions Gate. Although our conversation was recorded the night before the tournament began, Doc explains exactly why her stellar performance came as no surprise. He also highlights the accomplishments of other young players he works with and reminds us once again why he's the best in the business—change your mind, change your game. Following Doc, Jay Delsing returns to the show. Jay is not only one of the kindest and most uplifting voices in the game, he's also got a new book coming out titled You Wouldn't Believe Me If I Told You, and trust me, you're going to want to read it. He shares some unforgettable stories, including teeing it up with Stephen Stills, meeting Sean Connery (who then introduced him to Steven Spielberg and George Lucas), and playing with presidents—and a young Tiger Woods. You'll love his energy and storytelling. Finally, we bring in our Resident Director of Instruction, Tom Patri. With a scheduling conflict bumping him up in the lineup, Tom gives us his take on Min Woo Lee's breakthrough victory at the Houston Open and the crucial role Lee's caddie played in avoiding disaster. We also look ahead to The Masters, and Tom shares the four players he expects to be battling it out on the back nine come Sunday.
Send us a textThe pressure on high school graduates today is immense. The future looms large with a thousand unknowns:"What am I going to do with my life?""Who will I marry?""Should I go to college?""How do I even function as an adult?"For students raised in Christian homes, these questions shouldn't be left to guesswork. They should be rooted in something deeper—discipleship to Jesus.

In Part 1 of this week's show, I'm joined by our Resident Director of Instruction Tom Patri and 2013 Senior Open Champion Mark Wiebe. At the top of the show, I give a HUGE shout-out to 77-year-old Bob Ross of Greensburg, PA. Bob made not 1, but 2 hole-in-ones during his round at Mt. Oden Park Golf Course on June 3rd. His first ace came on the Par 3 4th hole. He found the bottom of the cup using a 9 iron. Then to prove to his buddies that was no fluke, he made a second ace on the Par 3 11th hole from 142 yards using a 26-degree hybrid. Huge congratulations Bob!

This is the life story, the testimony, and the conversion story of Nathan Crankfield. It's been shared many times and in many places, but never has it been done so thoroughly, vulnerably, and transparently as this. For those who don't know, Nathan Crankfield was born and raised in Harrisburg, PA. He was baptized Lutheran, but entered the Catholic Church at age 13, becoming the first Catholic in his family. In 2015, he graduated from Mount St. Mary's University, where he received an Army ROTC Scholarship. After graduation, Nathan was commissioned and trained as an Infantry officer at Fort Benning, GA, where he completed U.S. Army Airborne School and Ranger School. Upon completion, he headed to Fort Bragg, NC, where he served in the 82nd Airborne Division for three years. After a deployment to Afghanistan, Nathan knew it was time to pursue his love for evangelization. Throughout his life, Nathan has cultivated a deep passion for encouraging others to fulfill their potential and purpose. In 2019, he accepted a position at the Dynamic Catholic Institute, where he faithfully served as a Parish Consultant for the archdiocese of Kansas City, MO & Austin, TX. Nathan served as a Resident Director at Benedictine College in Atchison, KS. He currently resides in Denver, Co with his wife; Emily and their son Jordan. Nathan currently serves as a Sales Lead for Hallow, the Catholic prayer & meditation app. The initial ideas around Seeking Excellence came to Nathan during his college years as he felt God calling him to serve the Church using his gifts for writing and speaking. While serving his parishes, Nathan dedicated consistent time to writing reflections to share within his community. When the mandatory stay-at-home orders went into place in the spring of 2020, Nathan received several cancellations for his booked speaking engagements. Much like all things Nathan does in his life, he decided to make the most of the situation by evolving. He moved his in-person events to a virtual platform, gaining new audiences and identifying our world's needs. Shortly after, Seeking Excellence launched with the support of Nathan's community and several friends who committed much time to help lay the foundation to bring his dream to life. Nathan continues to cast a bold vision for Seeking Excellence while striving to build a strong alliance of community, which will help make a significant impact in the Church.

Eugene Ma is a theatre director, actor and teacher with an inter-disciplinary background. Born in Toronto, brought up in Hong Kong and based primarily in New York - Eugene continues to perform, direct, and teacher internationally.Enchanted many years ago by the ingenuity of the Clown and virtuosic transformations in Commedia dell'Arte, Eugene embarked on and completed a two-year teaching apprenticeship with Christopher Bayes, making him one of a selected few "Bayes-certified" physical acting teachers in America. During the apprenticeship, Eugene served as Chris' teaching assistant and musical director for Clown and Commedia classes as well as student productions at Yale School of Drama, the Juilliard School as well as summer and corporate workshops, infusing more musicality into the curriculum as a tool to open up the actor's imagination and sensitivity.Eugene is currently on faculty at Columbia School of the Arts, where he teaches clown in the MFA Acting program. Spring 2020 he will be teaching clown at Yale School of Drama, to the second year MFA actors. Previous teaching engagements include workshops and classes at Yale's Undergraduate Theater Studies Program, Professional Performing Arts School (Arts High School) in Midtown Manhattan, St. Andrew's College in Canada.

His acting credits include Theatre for a New Audience, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and Berkely Rep.Having been trained as a pianist (ABRSM Gr. 8), organist and composer at a young age at the Yamaha Music Foundation in Hong Kong, Eugene still recalls his first composition assignment being motific explorations inspired by a picture of a large zoo on the music stand as he captured the journey of zoo-going as well as channeling the essence of different animals. As a result of his very aural-based training, impulsively framing and supporting a story with relatable motifs -- not the most complex and intricate musical structures -- has always been the priority and strength in Eugene's musical work.

Culum Walsh is an Academic Life Coach and the Resident Director at Western Colorado University. Culum was a classroom teacher for 21 years until a surfing trip in Costa Rica changed the course of his career trajectory. In the episode, Culum shares the biggest challenges facing teenagers and young adults today as well as provides valuable information about how we learn, how we think, and how we study best in order to maximize our performance. There are many practical takeaways for coaches, teachers, and parents to help us all implicitly "trust" our clients and what to do next when your student responds by saying "I don't know." Culum shares his new Conflict Management conversation technique and so much more. Check out some of the highlights below; 1.40: Worst coaching moment: Remember that the client is the 'driver' of the session. 3.50: Best coaching moment: Let your own agenda float by. Trust your client. Ask your client/student: "What do you think about that?" 9.10: Sliding Doors: When teaching was no longer as creative and fun as it used to be - time to learn how to surf in Costa Rica! 12.41: What makes a Great Coach? ("Trusting the client!") Assume trust from day 1 with your client. 14.30: What degree do you trust (your marketing person) to represent who you are and what you do on a scale of 1 to 10? Be careful of the lone-wolf syndrome as a solopreneur 19.02: Biggest challenges for teenagers - having meaningful and satisfying relationships with peers and adults. Young adults - are really struggling with these negative narratives about themselves. Our minds make up things that are not true. 21.30: Biggest challenges for university students who are struggling with their grades - Knowing what kind of a learner they are, what kind of thinker they are and knowing the answer to how should you be studying! Academia comes to us via one of these three ways (code this information and watch how much easier it is to structure your thinking) - it is either: 1) Facts or information 2) Reasons that things happen 3) Processes, steps on how to do things Or some combination 23.08: What study environment works best for you? Complete silence? In your room (the noise from the hallways) The library, the grille where there is some ambient noise? 27.00: How do you handle the response: "I don't know." "That's a great place to start, take your time." Parents: Instead of "How was your day?" They respond: "Good." Ask: What was good? Is now a good time to talk about your day? What was the best part of your day?" Top tip: "How is your life going?" 32.00: Conflict Management Protocol: If a student requests a room change, a meditation process happens, and the conversation goes something like this; Each person writes down their complaints (without the other person interrupting) Write down the new set of agreements How do you gracefully and respectfully call each other in when the agreement gets broken? For example, what time should we have this conversation and when should we not have this conversation? 36.23: What makes a great leader? It's declaring oneself a leader!

We are having a great time during our Bible Study series. This week my guest is Jake Doberenz from Creatively Christian Podcast and Theophany Media. Jake is known for finding the humor in everyday life, and even in difficult passages in Scripture. He loves to study the writings of Paul, passionate about exploring the depths of Scripture, and loves to snuggle up with his wife and cats on the couch. He has a unique and fresh perspective when it comes to studying God's Word. Join us for a enjoyable conversation, filled with practical tools and witty, comical sayings! Bio: Jake Doberenz isn't one thing. He identifies as a polymath, a Renaissance man, or a multipotentialite–one interest or specialty can't contain him. But enough of the third-person. I am a writer, speaker, minister, and creative thinker living in Oklahoma City, OK with my wife Samantha. My most significant role is the founder and president of Theophany Media, a Christian education company dedicated to helping Christians engage with culture through new media. I have earned my Master of Theological Studies at Oklahoma Christian University, the same place I earned my Bachelor's degree in Bible with a minor in Communication Studies. I also worked at my alma mater as a Resident Director and Bible TA. I write fiction and nonfiction in a variety of mediums, including poetry, short stories, books, stage plays, academic essays, and devotionals. I also venture out into other mediums, like podcasts and video. My favorite topics of choice to discuss and write about (though always changing) include: creating Christian art, helping people understand the Bible better, Christian identity, theology of social media, use of humor in faith messages, superheroes and theology, and a Christian response to culture.

Bartlett Sher is a Tony Award-winning director who has brought thoughtful, powerful productions to theaters, opera houses, and film. He is the Resident Director at Lincoln Center Theater and one of our greatest storytellers, using the stage to interpret and spotlight stories of American history. He has staged multiple productions at the Kennedy Center, including a tour this summer of his Award-winning adaptation of Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning To Kill a Mockingbird. Next spring, Sher and writer Aaron Sorkin will debut a revival of the musical Camelot on Broadway. First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy said Camelot was JFK's favorite musical, and after his death, the story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Roundtable came to symbolize the Kennedy administration.

Breath is the foundation of life, the doorway to multidimensionality, and how you breath determines how you feel on this human journey. Betrayal leads to a loss of trust, a loss of control, and a loss of flow. Breathwork is a tool that can help you regulate and calm your nervous system, relax and accept the present moment, and feel better fast. The choice is yours: You can either stumble through the forest or can find a path that will lead you through more easily. Let Breathwork be that path! Top take-a-ways: Understanding why all emotions have value and how to learn to trust your breath so you can relax and recover after infidelity or other emotional trauma. Why every breath you take is either reinforcing negative emotional experiences or creating positive ones, and how to consciously repattern your life experience using breath. How to move through and process the emotional backlog of bitterness, pain, and resentment post-betrayal. The truth of Freud's saying, “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.” and the necessity of releasing the cellular memory of trauma if you want to heal. The secret reason we hold our breath, and how breath-holding is a suspension of life, a momentary death, where you don't want to move forward and face what's next. Remember, whatever posture you meet life with, is how life will meet you! And as Michael Blair says, “It's not about feeling better, it's about getting better at feeling.” But once you do, you will feel better! What kind of life do you want to create? R. Christian Minson is an International Speaker, Best-Selling Contributing Author, Trainer, Coach, and the Founder of Breathflow Wellness International, a world-renowned transformational holistic health and wellness platform to share the life-changing techniques of breathwork. A former Monk, Christian spent 10 years in the YogicMonastery of Self-Realization Fellowship,founded by Paramahansa Yogananda (author of Autobiography of a Yogi), in Los Angeles to serve as Yogananda's instrument for the dissemination of his writings and teachings, including Kriya Yoga. After years searching for deeper meaning of life in the Monastery, Christian now teaches and guides others to find meaning in their own personal and professional lives by delivering inspiration and practical real-world tools that result in higher levels of vibration, creation, alignment, fulfillment and performance. Christian was formerly the Resident Director of the Breathwork Program at RYTHMIA Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica, specializing in fusing ancient wisdom and modern techniques for healing and creating a life you love. Christian has worked alongside the well-known thought leader, Gregg Braden, and has shared his message and techniques across the globe—including the Middle East, Europe, Mexico, Canada, and all over the USA. He has shared his message with business people, thought-leaders, princesses, athletes and celebrities, students, and everyday seekers of a better way of life. Visit his website at www.breathflow.com.
