This isn’t where I tell you what a birdie means or what a bunker is. Chances are you already know that or you wouldn’t be reading this blog. But I am here to help you break down what some of the more tech terms are when it comes to golf equipment and getting fit or...

Be a Better Student (Revisited)
This blog was originally published last July but received such good feedback that we thought it could be helpful to those who may have missed it or use it as a guide for anyone seeking golf instruction this spring. Just like every other profession, sport, or activity there are good and bad instructors. In golf...
GHQ Classroom: Properly Gapping Your Wedges
The short game is the most important aspect of the game. It’s the first thing you should work on as a youngster or beginner as you learn how to properly manipulate the club and control distances, and it’s the part you seek to improve on the most as an established player looking to shave a...
Keep Golf Fun in 2021
Golf was one bright spot amongst a thick layer of fog that was 2020. Rounds played were up as much as 30% in some parts of the country and retail sales saw figures that haven’t been seen, well…ever. Golfers who played maybe once a week were now playing 2-3 times as hugs and handshakes were...
GHQ Lesson Tee: Uneven Lies
One of the most frequent questions I get asked from students is how to play a shot when the ball is below or above your feet, or if you encounter a side-hill lie. The reason this is such a popular issue among players of all types is because it’s something we rarely practice, if ever....

Bryson Told Ya So…
Bryson did exactly what he said he was going to do. No not win a major, but that was a direct result of it. He told us he’d come back this season bigger, faster, stronger, and longer…and he did. People said he was too analytical and technical and needed to play more by feel. But...
Be a Better Student
Just like every other profession, sport, or activity there are good and bad instructors. In golf there are world renowned swing coaches that are household names who win all the awards and accolades. There are also some great ones that you have never heard of. And as far as the pretty crappy ones, unfortunately you...
Restore Your Speed
Speed is king and distance is the great equalizer in golf. The always analytical Bryson DeChambeau thought he needed to get longer off the tee to better compete on tour. Even though he was already in the top-20 in driving distance and has 5 wins on the PGA Tour. So in the offseason he gained...
