Todd Kolb on Why Traditional Golf Instruction Could be Failing You
About this episode
Todd Kolb is a PGA Professional and has been teaching golf for over 25 years. He has been named the Minnesota PGA Teacher of the Year and has coached golfers of all skills levels from Major Championship winning players, to LPGA winners, to elite Collegiate and Amateur golfers, to club level players.
Todd recently authored a book titled: The Bad Lie - Why Traditional Golf Instruction is Failing You (And What to Do)
He joins #OntheMark to discuss the book and share some excerpts and insights to help you to a better understanding of what is actually required to improve your game and your scores.
Among various insights, Todd elaborates on "3 Things to Think Differently About" - The X-Factor, Flat Backswings with Deep Hands, and Distance vs Control.
He also talks about 3 Skills to Transform Your Game - Strategic Aim, Lag Putting (with a practice drill), and Chipping and Pitching (with a drill.)
As Todd says: "You can hit a solid draw off the tee. You can hit a high, soft flop shot. You can break 80 and you can love this game into your retirement years. You just need instruction that was made for you."
