Last night I sat on the deck with a drink in one hand and my driver in the other, doing what golfers do in July: tinkering.
I've had a decent start to the season, but I want to make some adjustments. I've adjusted my grip to a stronger grip, but find myself pulling instead of drawing the ball. I grabbed my adjustable driver, opened it up, watched a few videos, and made some changes. You know the options if you golf a bit. We can play with the loft and the lie, open the face for a fade, close it for a draw.
Then I stopped. I put the club back together and thought: none of this matters if the swing underneath it is broken.
Golf has given us incredible technology: adjustable heads, custom shafts, launch monitors that measure everything down to the degree. All of it can make a good swing better. None of it can make a bad swing good. You can dial in the perfect equipment and still slice it into the trees, because the club was never the problem. The swing was.
That's the work we do at Walters & Associates. We're the pros that fix your swing, not your equipment.
We're not in the business of adjusting loft and lie; tweaking a sales script here, a marketing tactic there, hoping a different angle produces a different result. That's band-aid work. It might buy you a few extra yards occasionally, but it won't fix what's actually costing you strokes (and money, if weโre talking business).
We're here to address the underlying mechanics of how you lead, sell, and build trust inside your business. Remember, as I always say: "just because you're an expert in a skill, a trade or a profession doesn't mean you know how to run a business in it."
The question I need to ask you today is this: In your business right now, are you adjusting the equipment, or are you willing to look at the swing?
