My season has started, and it's nowhere like the comfortable simulator. I am struggling to incorporate my swing changes into real action and I'm still getting used to some new clubs. To top it off, I'm preparing for my first non-club tournament ever and a little over a week.

I'm going to do a deep dive into the rounds of Masters Legends Fred Couples and Bernhard Langer (there's plenty of Rory content out there). We will delve into how these 65+ year olds tackled a 7500+ yard course and nearly made the cut. Then, we will see how you can use this information to improve your golf game.

I used datagolf.com, Arccos web searches, Masters app, and the Decade app for the data discussed.

Drop me a line and let's talk golf!

I’m excited to share my journey over the off-season to gain clubhead speed across the bag without speed training. This involves mobility, strength, and tempo. I'll share the programs and apps that I used.

I can't wait until the season starts and I can start playing from the tips for the first time ever!

This is a very special interview with Alberta Sports Hall of Fame inductee Dave Schultz, who happens to be our reigning club champion at the age of 67. He beat plus handicap competitors, most of whom are much less than half his age.

We will talk about his golf pedigree, his approach and mentality when playing with longer hitters, fitness, and nutrition.

This episode highlights that a long, cold offseason is not a curse, but actually a blessing. I'm embarking on major swing changes that would be impossible during the on-course season. Tune in to see the benefits of the offseason and how you can take your game to the next level.

It's been a fun year of documenting my progress, talking to exceptional guests, and of course, working on my golf game. I'll talk about exactly where my areas of improvement, and how I plan on getting better in the offseason.

A very insightful video from former professional and the creator of the Decade Golf program (see link below), where Scott Fawcett has taken literally 'decades' of on-course knowledge and presented golfers of all abilities the understanding of optimal strategies on the golf course.

Scott and I discuss fitness, nutrition, course management, and speed training as it pertains to older golfers.
