    Swing improvements, pro tour disparity, and I'm a huge Haley Moore fan!
    Oct 15 2020
    In episode four, I follow up on my most recent PGA Tour Superstore lesson and how that is translating into positive changes in my own golf game; we recommend the "https://www.golfdigest.com/story/local-knowledge (Local Knowledge)" podcast, especially the great job by Keely Levins (https://twitter.com/kalevins (@kalevins)) in the episode, "https://lnns.co/gNXhwbrnHU_ (The Bootstrapping Life of an LPGA Tour Player);" and I reveal my membership in the Haley Moore (https://twitter.com/HaleyMoore_20 (@HaleyMoore_20)) fan club... if that were really a thing (wait, IS it a real thing??!!).

  • PGA Tour Superstore lesson experience, tour news, and helpful resources!

    PGA Tour Superstore lesson experience, tour news, and helpful resources!
    Sep 29 2020
    In episode three, I give a summary of a recent lesson at my local PGA Tour Superstore, discuss the recent tournament results for the PGA and LPGA Tours, and pass along some podcasts and articles that I found interesting from the gear/instruction front. MY GOLF SPY LESSONS VS. NEW CLUBS: The folks at My Golf Spy (mygolfspy.com) recently discussed on their YouTube channel the various benefits of investing in new golf clubs versus investing in golf lessons (https://youtu.be/heTGaFueBRM (https://youtu.be/heTGaFueBRM)). It is an interesting discussion, and this is what our podcast is all about; what the best investment of our time and money as we look to improve! PGA TOUR SUPERSTORE LESSON: I recently took my first lesson from a PGA certified pro at my local PGA Tour Superstore. The lesson bay is equipped with a Foresight Sports launch monitor and video recording capabilities. I highly recommend finding a golf instructor who uses video and allows you to see what you are doing and how to correct your flaws. So helpful! PODCAST and ARTICLE SUGGESTIONS: I mentioned an article from Golf Digest that is published in the most recent magazine, but is not yet posted online. It is an "Equipment Lab" article by Mike Stachura (https://twitter.com/MikeStachura (@MikeStachura)) on the differences between a scratch handicapper and a 15 handicap, and their use of both blade irons and "super game improvement" cavity back irons. Data was captured using Trackman launch monitors, with distance and dispersion information gathered and analyzed. Interesting stuff! Another helpful article was written by Jon Sherman (https://twitter.com/practicalgolf (@practicalgolf)), located on his website (https://practical-golf.com/golf-lessons-guide/ (https://practical-golf.com/golf-lessons-guide/)). Jon discusses the value of taking golf lessons if you want improvement! Womensgolf.com also published a post from the President of the LPGA Teaching and Club Professionals, Deb Vangellow, titled, “12 Steps to getting the Most Benefit from your Golf Lessons" (https://www.womensgolf.com/golf-instruction (https://www.womensgolf.com/golf-instruction)). The article is not specific to women's golf, and it is filled with helpful tips for finding an instructor, preparing for your lessons, and what to do after the lesson is completed. Finally, I mentioned one of my favorite YouTube channels from the guys at Tour Experience Golf (https://www.youtube.com/c/TXGTourExperienceGolf/videos (https://www.youtube.com/c/TXGTourExperienceGolf/videos)). I highly recommend subscribing to their channel and watching the great content they put out!

  • Trackman lesson, TopGolf, and motivation for the podcast!

    Trackman lesson, TopGolf, and motivation for the podcast!
    Sep 9 2020
    The motivation for this podcast is to be a resource for those golfers looking to improve, and who enjoy learning about some of the innovative products available to players today. Through these shows, we hope to encourage every player to get better by sharing the learning process, including both the failures and successes that we are experiencing. Perhaps you are a better player who is working on a certain aspect of your game; we would love to hear what you are working on and how's it going? Maybe you are getting lessons for the very first time (like our host!) and you want to help others who may be considering the same thing. We want to hear those stories! Send them in through our website, chasingrednumbers.com, or through our https://twitter.com/RedNumbersPod (Twitter), https://www.instagram.com/chasingrednumbers/ (Instagram), or https://www.facebook.com/ChasingRedNumbers (Facebook) pages! Trackman lesson and the TopGolf experience: Topgolf is an enjoyable place to take friends, family, or co-workers... really anyone you want to spend some time with, while also getting to take some golf swings! You can check out some of what they have to offer on their https://www.youtube.com/user/topgolfusa (YouTube channel). While Topgolf is fun, and can be used to scratch the "golf itch," practice time with a https://trackmangolf.com/ (Trackman) is much more profitable. I went to a local business (http://www.rokgolf.com (Rok Golf, Austin, Texas)) that offers the opportunity to rent a hitting bay complete with Trackman launch monitor data and video swing recording. Trackman offers free sign-up through the mytrackman.com site, where the data collected from your Trackman session is available to view. The amount of data is crazy (https://trackmangolf.com/what-we-track (What does Trackman track?)). They also offer a https://blog.trackmangolf.com/6-trackman-numbers-all-amateur-golfers-should-know/ (helpful blog post) about which numbers golfers should be paying attention to. Good stuff! MyGolfSpy Launch Monitor Review: We talked briefly about the https://mygolfspy.com/the-best-personal-launch-monitor-2019/ (review) MyGolfSpy did last year of personal launch monitors, that are much closer to the average golfer's price range, with the https://mygolfspy.com/the-rapsodo-mlm-launch-monitor/ (Rapsodo MLM) taking the top honor. Do you have one of these personal launch monitors, or possibly one that is not mentioned? Please https://www.chasingrednumbers.com/contact/ (let us know) if it would be a benefit to others of us! PGA Tour and LPGA Tour News: Dustin Johnson capped a great 2019-2020 PGA Tour season by taking home the Tour Championship and the FedEx Cup, along with $15 million. What did you think of the format for the final playoff event? Who's your pick to win Player of the Year? The 2020-2021 PGA Tour season starts THIS WEEK with the https://www.pgatour.com/power-rankings/2020/09/08/fantasy-golf-advice-tips-picks-safeway-open-silverado-resort-and-spa-north.html (Safeway Open) from the Silverado Resort and Spa in Napa, CA, where Cameron Champ is defending. Many are looking forward to the following week and the https://www.usopen.com/ (U.S. Open) from Winged Foot Golf Club in Mamaroneck, N.Y. The LPGA Tour had an open week last week, as the ladies prepared for their second major tournament, the https://www.lpga.com/tournaments/ana-inspiration/leaderboard (ANA Inspiration) at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, CA. Last year's champion, and world #1, Jin Young Ko (South Korea) will not be defending as she chose not to travel from South Korea to the United States. However, players ranked #2-#9 on the ladies world Rolex rankings will be in the field and it looks to be another great tournament, complete with https://www.lpga.com/news/2020/ana-inspiration-brings-stars-to-desert-for-major (hot temperatures)!
