The Timeless Wisdom of Harvey Penick's Little Red Book

Harvey Penick's Little Red Book is regarded as one of the best golf books ever written. In this episode, we break down some of the top takeaways from the book that remain relevant today, despite being decades old. What's old is new again! Thank you to our show sponsors Hack Motion, Rhoback, and LMNT Analyzing thousands of swings, our partner HackMotion found that casting is one of the most common faults among mid- and higher-handicap players — and a major reason for lost power, poor contact, and inconsistency. If you’re releasing the club early in the downswing, you’re leaving distance on the table and making it harder to strike the ball solidly. The good news? You can fix it with one simple drill.
