The Four Foundations Of Golf
Golf Improvement “Hiding In Plane Sight!”
Welcome to Episode 195 of THE Golf Improvement Podcast! Dedicated to sharing useful information on professional club fitting, short game improvement, and effective practice techniques. CHANGING GOLFER’S LIVES – ONE GOLFER AT A TIME!
Show Notes:
Interview with Jon Sherman, author of the #1 Amazon Golf Best-Selling Book “The Four Foundations Of Golf!”
- Jon shares some of his Personal Golf Story – how his game improved using the concepts from his book, why he created the Practical Golf web site, and why he took the leap to write “The Four Foundations of Golf.”
- Expectation Management is a huge theme in this book. He shares why this is so important to playing your best golf. Did you know that PGA Tour pros make bogey about 80% of the time in recovery situations?
- Chapter 15 of the book is titled “Golf Is A Game Of Proximity.” Jon discusses what this truth means for golfers.
- The “old school” Greens In Regulation statistic is still an important one for golfers to track. What is ALSO important is simply getting the ball on the green for short pitches, chips, and sand shots!
- Jon uses the phrase “Zombie Range Sessions” to describe how a lot of golfers “practice.” He shares that Engagement in your practice is the most important factor to using practice to effectively improve your game. And he – like me! – loves using Dr. Schools Foot Powder Spray as a golf training aid.
- In the book, Jon quotes a wonderful James Clear (Atomic Habits book) statement – “The key to building lasting habits is focusing on creating a new identity first. Your current behaviors are simply a reflection of your current identity.” He discusses the value of this concept, and also of building an effective Post-Shot Routine, for golfers who want to improve any part of their games.
- Finally, Jon shares the reason who he included a great give-away for golfers who buy his book.
