Ever jumped into a new car and suddenly the hand brake is gone… replaced by a foot brake? You know how to drive. You know how to stop. But for a while, everything feels awkward, slow, and uncomfortable. In this episode, we talk about why learning new habits and skills always feels worse before it feels better — whether that’s changing something in your golf swing, your practice habits, or even something as simple as adapting to a new car. We break down how the brain actually learns new patterns, why performance often dips during change, and why so many people quit right before the breakthrough happens. If you’ve ever felt frustrated trying to change a habit — in golf or in life — this episode will help you understand why that feeling is normal and how to push through it the smart way.
In this episode, I’m joined by Australian professional golfer Adam Bland, a multiple-time international tour winner who’s competed across Australasia, Japan, Europe, and North America. Adam takes us inside what it’s really like to win on tour — from the emotions and nerves coming down the stretch on Sunday, to standing over shots that can change your career. We break down what he was thinking on the final few holes, how he managed pressure in winning moments, and what separated his best weeks from the rest. We also dive into the grind of life as a touring professional, the realities aspiring pros don’t see, and the lessons Adam now passes on after transitioning into coaching at Glenelg Golf Club. This is a must-listen for junior golfers, parents, and serious players who want an honest look at what it takes to close tournaments and survive professional golf.We thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

In this episode of Your Golf Performance Podcast, I sit down with Jason Baile — one of the most respected coaches in world golf and the PGA of America National Teacher & Coach of the Year. Jason has built a reputation not only as a world-class instructor, but as a trusted advisor, mentor, and leader within the golf community. A member of the PGA’s Quarter Century Club, he brings a rare blend of technical expertise, emotional intelligence, and real-world experience gained from decades of coaching at the highest level. In this conversation, we explore what truly separates the best players in the world — like Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy — from those fighting to keep their card, and why the margins at the elite level are far smaller than most people realiseJasons Instagram We thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

In this episode, Brent sits down with Nick Chertock — an accountant by trade, lifelong mid-handicap golfer, and one of the most influential non-coaches in the golf instruction world. As co-founder of Open Forum, Nick has spent the last 10–20 years immersed in conversations with some of the best golf coaches on the planet, asking the questions many golfers and coaches never think to ask. Despite not being a touring professional or teaching full-time, Nick has become a trusted connector, discussion starter, and advocate for smarter golf improvement. In this conversation, Brent and Nick dive into what Nick has learned from decades of observing elite coaches, whether all that knowledge has actually improved his own golf game, and the dangers of information overload for both golfers and instructors. They also share behind-the-scenes stories from time spent around world-class coaches, explore how great coaches filter information differently, and discuss where golf instruction is heading next. This episode is a must-listen for golfers and coaches who want to cut through the noise, think more clearly, and improve with intention rather than overwhelm.Open Forum WebsiteFollow Nick on Insta We thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

This episode is a little different — and that’s exactly why I wanted to do it.Today I’m joined by Jimmy Emanuel, a golf journalist, commentator, and podcaster who’s worked across Golf Australia magazines and spent years talking with some of Australia’s best golfers.Rather than coaching swing mechanics or tour prep, this conversation pulls back the curtain on how golf stories are told — and what players, parents, and coaches can learn from the media side of the game. We talk about:How Jimmy got into golf journalism and commentaryWhat he’s learned from interviewing elite Australian golfersWhat separates players who “make it” from those who don’t — from a journalist’s perspectiveHow golf media has changed with podcasts, social media, and digital platformsHow junior golfers and parents should think about media, storytelling, and the bigger golf ecosystemThe realities (and misconceptions) of working in golf mediaThis is a behind-the-scenes look at the game from someone who doesn’t coach or play professionally — but has seen the sport from angles most golfers never experience. If you’re a junior golfer, parent, coach, or just someone curious about how golf really works beyond the ropes, this episode will give you a fresh perspective.Follow Jimmy Click HereWe thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

In this episode of the Your Golf Performance Podcast, I’m joined by one of the most exciting young talents in golf, Mia Hammond, who made headlines by winning on the Epson Tour as an amateur while still a teenager. We dive deep into what that week really felt like, how competing — and winning — against professionals changed her mindset, and what happened when she returned to regular junior events afterward. Did junior golf suddenly feel easier, or did new pressures emerge? Mia shares honest insights into how she practices, how she handles nerves under pressure, and what she believes mattered most in her development as a junior golfer. We also talk about the role her dad played in her journey, how parents can best support their kids without adding pressure, and the lessons she’s learned along the way. The conversation finishes with Mia’s college commitment, the challenges she expects moving into college golf, how she’s preparing for the next level, and her advice for junior golfers chasing big goals. This is a must-listen episode for junior golfers, parents, and coaches who want real-world insight into elite junior development, competing under pressure, and what it truly takes to move to the next level.We thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

In this episode of Your Golf Performance Podcast, I’m joined by Ryan Smith, coach at the Sea Island Golf Performance Center, to dive deep into what it really takes to develop elite junior golfers. Ryan breaks down the structure of his Player Development Program, including how many hours juniors should be training each week and how to balance technical work, fitness, mental training, and on-course play. We discuss the key differences between players who win events and those who consistently struggle to make cuts, and the habits elite performers build that others simply don’t. We also explore the importance of competitive practice vs block practice, what Ryan learns most from watching his players compete on course, and the common mental and physical mistakes young golfers make under pressure. Ryan shares practical travel tips for tournaments, insights into strength and fitness development, and how he builds accountability and ownership in young players. Finally, we tackle a topic many parents will relate to — how to coach juniors who have access to everything but may lack work ethic or intrinsic motivation, and what parents should realistically expect when their child enters a long-term development program. This episode is a must-listen for junior golfers, parents, and coaches looking to understand what truly drives high-level performance.We thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

In today’s Wednesday Wisdom, we dive into putting distances and what you should realistically expect to make—because most golfers dramatically overestimate how many putts they “should” hole. We break down the PGA Tour make percentages from common distances and show you why even the best players in the world don’t make everything outside short range. Understanding these numbers can instantly change how you react to missed putts and help you build a healthier mindset on the greens.You can stop beating yourself up over misses from outside your “money zone” and start focusing on speed control, start line, and high-quality practice that actually moves the needle. Better expectations → better mindset → better putting.JOIN THE TITLEIST GIVEAWAY HEREWe thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.

In this week’s Wednesday Wisdom, Brent tackles the most confusing scoring zone in golf — the dreaded 50–100 metre “No Man’s Land.” Most golfers guess at these shots… and that guesswork is costing them strokes every round. Brent breaks down a simple, tour-proven system built around your four wedges — pitching wedge, gap wedge, sand wedge, and lob wedge. You’ll learn how to develop three stock swings for each club — half, 75%, and full — and how to record your carry distances so you never stand over a wedge feeling unsure again. By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to build your own Wedge Matrix, a personalised chart that shows exactly how far each wedge flies with each swing length. This is one of the fastest ways to lower scores and take the mystery out of your distance wedges. If you’ve ever stood in “No Man’s Land” and hoped for the best… this episode will give you a plan you can trust.JOIN THE TITLEIST GIVEAWAY HEREWe thank Titleist - The number 1 brand in golf for their continued support of the YGP Podcast!🚨 Podcast Partner: TRUE PROTEINI’m proud to partner with TRUE PROTEIN, the go-to supplement brand trusted by elite athletes and weekend warriors alike.
