One of my favorite drills for developing a better path and learning how to use the ground more effectively.

The goal is simple: use your club to push the ball on the ground out toward “right field.” This gives you the feel of applying force into the ground in a direction that helps the club work more from the inside.

Done correctly, this can help:

• Shallow the club in transition
• Develop a more in-to-out path
• Move the low point of the swing forward
• Improve rotation and compression through impact

Instead of trying to manipulate the club with your hands, use the ground to help organize the motion.

Push the ground → shallow the club → swing out → move the low point forward.

Simple. Repeatable. Easy.

Great short game play isn’t about being perfect—it’s about using a technique that allows for some room for error.

The goal is never to hit a “perfect” shot. The goal is to develop a more efficient motion that holds up when it matters, in a variety of conditions.

Understand it. Feel it. Own it.

Last week, my son and I had the chance to play a quiet round in the mountains. No place we needed to be afterward. Just a walk, a few good shots, and a few not-so-good ones.

It reminded me that golf is never really been about the shots.

It’s the time between the shots.

Realizing that every round asks something a little different of us—and so does life.

The game has unique way of bringing people together. Generations. Old friends. New friends.

It allows for a space that seems increasingly rare these days: time without distraction, that space where perspective changes…

Fortunately, I get to spend a lot of time helping people improve their golf swings. But the longer I’m around this game, the more I believe golf’s greatest value has very little to do with the swing.

3D has completely changed the way we understand how the best players move.

Center of mass moving LEFT matters.

The Step Change Drill is one of my favorite ways to exaggerate and train that movement—creating pressure, momentum and rotation without trying to manufacture a bunch of swing positions.

Swing back and up. Step toward the target. Swing through and out.

Your golf swing is a movement.

“Get athletic.”

It’s probably the most common setup instructions in golf…

…and one of the least helpful.

For most golfers, “getting athletic” turns into squatting, adding knee flex, moving into the heels, and creating a posture that makes it harder to turn, harder to use the ground, and harder to move the club through space.

Real athletic posture is different.

Stand taller.
Hinge from your hips.
Feel your weight load into your hamstrings.
Let your arms hang naturally.

From there, your body can rotate, create speed, and deliver the club with far fewer compensations.

Start setting up in a position that actually lets you move like an athlete.

Thank you to all who have reached out! 🙏

I am excited, and honored, to have been hired this spring as the Teaching Professional at The Country Club at Castle Pines, in Colorado.

Golf has taken me to some incredible places over the years, but at its core I’ve always loved helping people learn, improve, and enjoy the game. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with such a great membership.

I’ll be continuing to grow out our M3 Golf Project in Steamboat with our team there, and looking forward to great things in the next year as we expand to new horizons. 🌅

Lately, I’m seeing more and more golfers post some version of:

“Grateful for the opportunity… not the result I was hoping for.”

Maybe it’s just me, but if the result wasn’t what you wanted, why are you posting about it at all?

Here’s an alternative:

Log off for 90 days.

No tournament recaps. No swing videos. No carefully crafted captions explaining away poor results.

Just go to work.

Practice. Train. Compete. Learn.

The game doesn’t care about your audience. It doesn’t care how many people know you’re chasing a dream.

In fact, the pressure of constantly documenting the journey often becomes another obstacle to performance.

The best stretches of golf for good players usually happen when they’re too busy improving to tell everyone they’re improving.

Go dark.

Let your scores do the talking.

Face Control: It’s Not Just Your Hands

Many golfers try to square the clubface with their hands alone.

The reality? Face control is largely influenced by two things:

✅ Grip
✅ Body Rotation

A stronger or weaker grip changes the clubface’s natural orientation throughout the swing.

Body rotation influences how the clubface is delivered to impact and the amount needed has to match the grip…Most people miss this.

If you’re fighting hooks, blocks, or slices, don’t just look at the clubface at impact—look at the grip and the amount of rotation that is required to square the face.

Better face control starts with understanding the relationship between the hands and the body.

Pick Easy Targets...

One of the biggest performance killers in golf isn't your swing.

It's perfection.

Many golfers step onto the course with an impossible standard: every drive in the fairway, every iron pin-high, every putt made. When those expectations become the target, tension follows.

Tension in the body.
Tension in the mind.
Tension in decision-making.

The irony is that great golf isn't built on perfect shots. It's built on consistently good shots.

The best players in the world aren't trying to hit perfect shots. They're trying to hit shots that are good enough to achieve the task at hand. Their targets are realistic. Their expectations are grounded. Their focus is on commitment, not perfection.

A good drive is often all you need.

A good approach is often enough.
A good putt can still miss.

Performance improves when we stop chasing perfection and start pursuing ex*****on.

Instead of asking:
"How do I hit the perfect shot?"

Try asking:
"What does a good shot look like here?"

That small shift can free up your mind, reduce tension, and help you play closer to your true ability.

The primary reason for most people’s experience of tension, is the looming expectation of perfection. That is to say, they select targets & goals that are ‘p...

Most golfers try to “fix” the clubface or swing path directly.

But often, the fastest changes happen when you change the environment and the player’s attention within it.

External cues shift movement patterns naturally. The brain organizes motion around a task or target — not around mechanical positions.

Instead of:
“Take it more inside.”
“Hold the face off.”

Try creating a task that influences the motion indirectly:

• Different start lines
• Obstacle constraints
• Curved ball flights
• Gate work
• Target-oriented intention

The body self-organizes.
Path changes.
Face patterns shift.
And players stop getting trapped in overthinking mechanics.

This is one of the most powerful intersections of motor learning, perception, and skill acquisition in modern coaching.

Environment drives behavior.
Behavior shapes movement.
