319: “Cashmere” Keith Mitchell On Short Game Technique, Retro Style, and His Putter Collection

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme welcome Keith Mitchell to the show for a conversation covering everything from a deep dive into all the different ways TOUR pros pitch the ball, to the beginnings of Keith’s now-iconic “Cashmere” styling patterned after 1970s Arnold Palmer.

Keith delves into the way technology like TrackMan has completely changed fitting, preparation and practice - plus, the guys chat about Keith’s putter collection and affinity for fine dining.
