I had never reached 180mph ball speed prior to 2020. Here we are at the end of the year. Pretty happy with my progress considering the many constraints and challenges. Besides... a 46 year old shouldn't even be doing this, right? 😅

Anyway, someone recently asked me why I constantly subject myself to this type of voluntary hardship. My answer is simple. AUTHENTICITY. I want my students to know that this isn't just something I understand conceptually. The last thing I want to be is another so-called expert giving advice on things I've never actually done.

My encouragement to everyone is if I can do it, so can you. It's definitely not easy. Because there's a lot of facets to it. But don't ever believe that you're either born with it or you're not👍

Bingo! The training aspect plays a big part. So do technique and equipment. But the mindset is just as important. If you want to see your clubhead speed go up, you have to be willing to hit some bad shots first. You're going to look stupid for a while.. until you get to the point where your fairway finders are longer than your opponent's bombs. As Rory said... make the target irrelevant for the time being 👍

Last we saw 18-time PGA TOUR winner Rory McIlroy, more than three weeks ago, he was shooting a dispiriting final-round 75 to finish T8 at the U.S. Open in New York.

I wanted to prove to this student that the weight of the club can influence his movement. So I gave him an alignment rod. The difference is obvious, don't you think? 😁

Snippet from the book ONLY ONE SHOT by V.J. TROLIO.

Not enough books are written with the sports parent as the target audience. Moms and dads, your role in your children's athletic development involves much more than bringing them to a good coach 🧐

I have a new... uhm, "Corona" test 😅

At first glance, you might think this guy had a miserable day with the amount of curvature on his tee shots. His name is Rory MCILROY and is co-leeader after 2 rounds a the BMW Championship. Remember this next time you panic about that tee shot that didn't fly straight.

EVERY GOLF PARENT SHOULD READ THIS ARTICLE.

“He let Charlie play. He didn’t get in Charlie’s way. He wasn’t over there arguing about what club Charlie was choosing, he wasn’t lining him up, saying, ‘Hey, let’s do this or that.’ He stayed back, enjoyed it and let him play golf."

Over the years, many players have shared stories about playing alongside Tiger Woods for the first time. But what about caddying in his group?
