This week: You can have a textbook swing... and still waste strokes around the green.

Stat trackers have measured it — there’s a common wedge pattern that nearly every golfer repeats, and it quietly adds 3–5 strokes a round.

The fix? It’s not technique — it’s awareness.

Once you see the pattern, you’ll never fall for it again.

Master this one change and you’ll start knocking wedges tight — consistently.

The tee‑box trick that instantly calms your nerves

Ever feel that tension creep in right before your opening drive?

Here’s a little‑known trick pros use before every tee shot: a simple alignment ritual that resets focus, quiets your mind, and locks in your target line.

It takes five seconds. No swing thoughts. No overthinking.
Just calm confidence — the way great rounds start.

Try it once and you’ll feel the difference immediately.

A former engineer says most putters are designed wrong

Have you ever hit a putt exactly where you intended... only to watch it miss anyway?

Most golfers assume they pushed it, pulled it, or misread the break.

But what if the problem isn't your stroke?

A former nuclear propulsion engineer who has spent more than 30 years designing clubs for 11 world #1 players believes most putters share the same design flaw.

According to him, the weight in traditional putters sits behind the shaft, which can encourage the face to rotate open or closed during the stroke.

In other words, even when you make a good stroke, the putter may be working against you.

That's why he spent years developing a completely different design—one that moves the weight in front of the shaft to help the face stay more stable through impact.

He calls it the putter he always wanted to build.

And many golfers are calling it the beginning of an entirely new category of putter.

Until next time,
