They need a plan.• The role of ego in scoring. • What Jack Nicklaus and Scottie Scheffler have in common.• Why better decisions lower scores faster than better swings.• And how this series will evolve moving forward.If you are off twenty, fourteen, six, or chasing plus figures, this conversation applies.Thank you for being part of the first two hundred.Let us build the next two hundred properly.🎧 New episodes weekly.Tune in to the back catalogue wherever you get your podcasts or at www.paddytalksgolf.comPowered by ForeGolf Custom.
