I talk a lot about strategy, and how it can really lower your scores. One of the pillars of course management is knowing your yardages to various points on the golf course, which is why I have always advocated most golfers using GPS technology. My number one strategic recomm…

Focus on what you can control and accept what you can’t. Some variation of this phrase appears in religious texts, self-help books, and social media accounts that supply endless inspirational quotes. It’s one of the most clichéd (and essential) concepts out there. When it co…

One of the significant innovations in golf equipment in recent memory is driver adjustability. Almost every manufacturer now offers drivers (and other clubs) that allow you to change the loft, or move around the center of gravity with weights. Like any technology, there are…

The personal golf launch monitor category has officially blown up. Over the past several years, there has been a slew of releases that I’ve tested. Recently, Rapsodo announced the release of its Mobile Launch Monitor. At $500, it packs an impressive list of features. I was e…
