Summary
Golf instruction, like a lot of things, can be trendy. In this episode, Mark, Lou, and Greg look back at the past couple of decades of golf instruction. Repeatedly, there are fads in golf instruction—and not all of them were likely to have made golfers better. This is an episode that matters for amateur golfers, a reminder to recognize that we need to welcome new information, without always assuming that the new thing is the best thing.

| 0:19.3 | I think my point of reference, Lou, Lewis, |
| 0:23.3 | if you please, is more about I don't know how far back you watched golf, because I know you |
