2 Simple Golf Skills That Instantly Lower Scores (Most Golfers Ignore These!)

If you’re a golfer stuck on the range wondering why your scores don’t drop—even though your swing is improving—this episode is for you. In this podcast, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb break down two insanely overlooked skills that will immediately impact your ability to shoot lower scores: knowing your carry distance and understanding your shot dispersion.

They give you the strategies that go beyond the swing mechanics. These are the “on-course IQ” tools the pros use—but most amateurs ignore. You’ll hear stories from our golf schools, live coaching insights, and what happens when golfers rely too much on the “perfect shot” instead of playing the smart one.

You’ll also learn:

• Why total distance is a lie—and how carry distance is the real truth
• How to eliminate blow-up holes by playing the likely shot instead of the hero shot
• The “shotgun vs rifle” strategy to better course management
• How practicing 3/4 shots and wedge control saves you strokes
• Real examples from PGA-level players that you can apply today

If you want to stop bleeding strokes on the course—and finally understand the game inside the game—don’t miss this one. It’s a low-hanging fruit episode that could save you 3–5 shots immediately without changing your swing.
