About this episode

Brent Dale discusses the importance of practicing with intention rather than just being busy in golf.

In this week's Wednesday Wisdom, I talk about a trap I see golfers fall into all the time: being busy instead of being productive.It's easy to spend hours at the driving range, hit hundreds of balls, and walk away feeling like you've worked hard. But if your practice has no purpose, no feedback, and no plan, those hours often lead to very little improvement.In this episode, I explain the difference between simply putting in time and practising with intention. Whether you're a junior golfer chasing bigger goals, a club golfer trying to lower your handicap, or a parent wanting to help your child improve, this episode will give you a different perspective on what effective practice really looks like. Remember, it's not about how much you practise—it's about how well you practise.If you enjoyed this episode, I'd really appreciate it if you could subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who could benefit from hearing it.
