In this episode, Jon and Adam explore a simple question: what does actually getting better at golf look like beyond just shooting lower scores? They break down practical, experience-based signs of improvement - from losing fewer balls and avoiding compounding mistakes to making better strategic decisions when things go wrong. The conversation dives deep into course management, adaptability, mental crutches like mulligans and gimmies, and why better golfers tend to miss in smarter places. A wide-ranging, honest discussion that helps golfers recalibrate their expectations and recognize real progress long before it shows up on the scorecard.
