About this episode

The episode discusses regional tournament updates and strategies for playing unfamiliar golf courses.

The peak of the golf season has officially arrived for northern players, and this week's episode of the Flagstick Podcast is packed with regional tournament updates and essential strategic advice. Hosts Jeff and Scott catch up on a busy summer schedule, highlighting a massive slate of regional and provincial events including the highly anticipated Flagstick Shootout. Transitioning from the PGA of Ottawa Pro-Pro at Buckingham, the guys dive deep into the ultimate golfer's challenge: how to successfully play and score well on a golf course you have never seen before. The Back Nine discussion focuses heavily on eliminating the mental pressure of "blind" tournament play. Jeff and Scott share personal anecdotes alongside practical advice on traditional and new-age ways to prepare to play a course unknown to you.
