Summary

443: Ken Doherty, Head Golf Professional for Marin Country Club returns in this Members Only episode to help us understand why we're so good on the range, but can't seem to put it together on the course. Did you realize that the balls in the bucket of balls are not the same type you play? Just because you don't pay for them is reason enough to not put a couple in your pocket. What kind of impact does hitting off of a matt have on your ball striking? There are other technical issues we discuss, but the biggest single factor is your attitude. Once you understand the difference, you'll see a change in your scoring.For exclusive content and first access check out Corrected Mistakes on Substack: https://substack.com/@correctedmistake  Learn more about your ad choices.

And most importantly, to me, how to clean up your divvets on the green.

0:54.0

Yeah, what we did applies to every golf course, every single golf course.

0:58.4

Absolutely.

I mean, I now, since I feel like, okay, this is how you put a rake back in the bunker.

1:05.2

You know, some people just throw them there.

1:07.3

They're in the bunker.
