Summary

713: The last time we met Gary Nicol (ep699 published on 7/23/19), we discussed the first book he co-authored with Karl Morris, “The Lost Art of Putting”. They’ve just released a new book called “The Lost Art of Playing Golf” in which we discuss the various elements of game improvement that have been lost with today’s technology that has made the focus of hitting the ball, not making ‘golf shots’. The Forward of this book is excellent as it’s provided by Rudy Durant, Tiger Woods’ childhood coach.Our next giveaway is a Full Access Pass to the Gravity Golf Challenge, courtesy of GravityGolf.com, valued at $500!
