Why your practice routine is failing—and how to finally get it right.

Part 2 (Season 2, Episode 4) How Low Can You Go?

In Part 2 of our conversation with Adam Young — co-host of The Sweet Spot and author of The Practice Manual — we go deep into how to practice smarter, not harder.

Adam breaks down his DIRT system (Diagnose, Intervene, Refine, Transfer), explains why most golfers struggle to perform on the course despite hitting it perfectly on the range, and shows how randomized practice and spectrum drills can help you reduce big misses and truly transfer your skills under pressure.

Whether you’re a mid-handicapper or just obsessed with improving, this episode is packed with practical frameworks, actionable drills, and game-changing insights that could transform your next practice session.

🎯 Key takeaways:

• Why block practice often fails to improve real-course performance
• How to diagnose what’s truly costing you strokes
• The secret to transferring range success to the course
• Spectrum drills to control big misses and refine feel
• Insights for both mid-handicappers and advanced players

If you’re serious about getting better — this is your blueprint.

Part One (Season 2, Episode 3) How Low Can You Go?

In Part One of our conversation with Adam Young — co-host of The Sweet Spot and author of The Practice Manual — we explore why chasing perfect positions so often fails, and why great ball-striking comes down to something far simpler.

Adam explains:

• Why wildly different swings can produce elite results
• The Big Three impact factors every golfer must satisfy
• How focusing on tasks and feedback beats mechanical fixes
• Why “self-organising” movement leads to lasting improvement
• The Golden Rule for fixing faults in real time

This episode will challenge how you think about practice, technique, and what really matters when the club meets the ball.

Change Your Story. Change Your Golf.

Part Two (Season 2, Episode 2) How Low Can You Go?

In Part Two of our conversation with Karl Morris, we go deeper — into the stories golfers tell themselves, the identities they cling to, and why those narratives may be costing them far more shots than their swing ever could.

If Part One challenged what you work on in your golf, Part Two challenges who you believe you are on the course.

Karl Morris, one of the world’s leading golf mental and performance coaches, explains why most golfers aren’t limited by lack of ability - but by outdated stories they’ve unknowingly rehearsed for years.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why “shouldism” (the belief that you should make birdies) quietly fuels big scores
• Why reducing doubles and triples matters far more than chasing birdies
• The powerful exercise Karl uses to help players rewrite their golfing identity
• How awareness of your “old story” gives you the freedom to choose a new one
• Why gratitude isn’t soft thinking — but a genuine high-performance state
• How gratitude reduces threat in the brain and helps you access the skill you already have

Karl also shares one of the most moving stories you're likely to hear on a golf improvement podcast — The Tuesday Boys — a reminder that none of us get unlimited rounds, unlimited seasons, or unlimited chances.

Every golfer eventually runs out of Tuesdays.

Golf improvement isn’t about positive thinking.
It isn’t about pretending bad shots don’t exist.
And it’s definitely not about lowering your standards.

It’s about changing your story — and changing your golf.
