Episode notes
Technique Outweighs Pure Speed Training
- Technique often matters more than raw gym-based speed training for adding clubhead speed.
- Many players train fast but swing in ways on-course that reduce clubhead speed.
From Pro Football To Tour-Level Golf Coach
- Liam shifted from pro football to golf after a fractured femur and a year-long experiment.
- He turned pro quickly, won multiple mini-tour events, and later moved into high-level coaching.
Prioritize Short-Game Skills
- Spend time on short-game skills: green reading, pace and starting the ball online instead of chasing technical putting grips.
- Prioritize up-and-down and bunker skills to save shots when long game fails.
