In this podcast, we dive into episode 7 of my Mental Game LIVE YouTube show. Most golfers are terrible when it comes to practice. Whenever they show up, they head to the range, get a couple toe-touches in, and start moving through the bag starting with the wedge and ending with the driver. There is no process to it, and they end up chasing feels, which could be good or bad.
In episode 7 of Mental Game LIVE, we talk about how to set...
