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.

🎯 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
