ABOUT THIS VIDEO

What if some of the most common golf advice is actually making the game harder than it needs to be?

In this episode, I’m joined again by Scott Fawcett, creator of the DECADE Golf course-management system and one of the most influential voices in modern golf strategy. Scott has worked with elite amateurs, college players, Tour professionals, and everyday golfers to help them make smarter decisions and shoot lower scores using math, statistics, and better expectations.

This time, we're breaking down 3 simple strategies that can help you play smarter golf without changing your swing:

⛳ Why playing one shot shape shouldn’t be controversial and why trying to work the ball both directions can add unnecessary complexity to your game.

⛳ Why block practice + routine practice is such a powerful combination—use the range to develop your swing, then train your pre-shot process so you can actually access it on the course.

⛳ Why “laying up to your favorite yardage” is largely a myth and how to think about layups, wedges, and scoring strategy instead.

Scott has a way of challenging traditional golf advice with data and logic, and this conversation is packed with ideas you can immediately apply to your own game.

If you want to stop overcomplicating golf, make smarter decisions, and lower your scores, don't miss this one.
