Summary

GS#449 August 12, 2014 Long time Golf Smarter Member Michael Hamel plays at least 36 holes everyday...in Ontario Canada! So far this year, he's logged 237 rounds, and he's not slowing down. In only 6 years of playing golf, Michael has brought himself down to a 3 handicap...although he'll say "up" to a 3 since he was in the 2s. He's also been a Personal Trainer for 25 years. When he fell in love with golf, he went for his TPI (Titleist Performance Institute) Certification so that he could become a better golfer, and to help others to be in better golf shape.This episode is brought to you by Warby Parker with over 300+ locations to help you find your next pair of glasses.
