Summary

878: Brinson Paolini played professionally in 43 countries after being a collegiate All-American golfer at Duke. One thing he always noticed on the course with pros and amateurs is that when they don’t hydrate or keep their blood sugar levels in check they tend to make poor decisions. We usually blame it on “hitting the wall” or “wheels falling off”. His recognition of this common dilemma lead him to create a product directed at golfers of all skill levels called Sharp Focus Nutrition. They also selected Golf Smarter, because of our interest in helping recreational golfers, to become a sponsor for the next few episodes. Their snack package that attaches to the outside of your golf bag will keep you focused and prevent poor decisions at the most important time of your next round.

And then they're making terrible decisions coming down the stretch, and then they're calling their swing instructor and firing them at night. To be frank, I was that person at times, so I guess I can only be too harsh on them. but from the outside looking in, it's kind of like, well, this seems pretty obvious, right? Your blood sugar spiked after you ate a huge meal, and then it crashed, and then your focus goes all over the place, and then you eat another big sandwich, and then it spikes, then it crashes toward the end, and then you make bad decisions.
