@AOTtrades @AOTtrades interested as well? How’s it looking?

Game Above has been a game changer for Eastern Michigan golf ⛳️

[Monday Q Info @acaseofthegolf1]

Game Above is a company that has changed EMU golf forever.

The company has given nearly $20 million to the program, they now have amazing facilities and it’s paying off. What a run.

Also the company sponsors men and women chasing the PGA and LPGA tours. Pretty awesome

The finalists have arrived!

I don’t know what’s happening behind the scenes but I just hope the athletic department truly understands that you don’t just stumble upon a Ryan Hybl. He’s the best in the business

Farewell Coach Heppler 👋🫡

[Brentley Romine @BrentleyGC]

Looking like tomorrow will be the final round of @GTGolf coach Bruce Heppler's career.

Jackets are 14th out of 14 teams at the NCAA Bermuda Run Regional, 24 shots back of fifth place.

Hoping to put something out in the next couple weeks that will encapsulate Heppler's amazing career, which included stops at UNLV and Oklahoma State as an assistant. But for now, just want to tip the cap to Bruce, one of the best to ever do it.

Fascinating insight. Be an athlete AND a scholar, and you get hired!

[Virginia Men's Golf @UVAMensGolf]

If you believe in golf and support the principles behind the sport… be vigilant, never take for granted your program, no matter the conference affiliation or past success. We live in tumultuous times in college athletics, Wichita St isn’t the last. Go support your program now!

The harsh reality of many college athletic departments right now

How much are they really saving cutting the golf programs?

I have caddied on Tour and the Korn Ferry Tour. Here are some things I did for my player that you can use in your own game.

Note the amount of rollout on every green. When you hit an 8 iron, find your divot, walk off the distance to where the ball ended up. Write it down. That information becomes gold later in the round.

Know where you putt best from. A putt that breaks slightly right to left is often easier to manage than a straight one. When you have options on approach, favor the side that gives you the putt you like.

Plan your round the night before. Wind direction is on your weather app right now. If you know your course you can decide how you are going to play each hole before you ever get there. No decision fatigue on the course. You just execute.

Chart your iron shots. Iron you hit. Wind direction. How far it flew. Find your divot, walk it off from where you measured, write down the number. Do it every round for a few months and you will know your distances better than you ever have.

This sounds like a lot. It is at first.

But once you start thinking this way you stop guessing. You stop second guessing your club choice on the 14th hole with water left. You step in with a number you trust and a plan you already made.

That is where confidence comes from.

Not the range. The data.

@ClassicSwingX @GBeardsley You must be better than the best players in the world!

@ClassicSwingX @GBeardsley And negate the chances of chunking it if it’s off a tee

This means that for a 4-round qualifier, the last person to qualify must shoot -4 under, while the winner shoots about -20 under.

Pretty darn good!

[Fore College Golf @ForeCollegeGolf]

The Top50 D1 teams report playing qualifying from an average distance of 7,072 with a course rating of 74.

On average, they play 4 rounds of qualifying, and the winner of qualifying averages 67.2, while the 5th player usually has an average of 71.3

NEW LEGISLATION ‼️

NCAA Transfer Portal "Windows" are now 15-day windows after NCAA Nationals

Men's Golf: opens on June 4th & closes June 18th

Women's Golf: opens May 28th & closes June 11th

[Fore College Golf @ForeCollegeGolf]

The "action phase" in college recruiting is the period between the initial contact date (June 15 after Soph Yr) until National Letter of Intent signing day (Nov, Senior Yr)

This period spans 17 months or 550 days

Make it count!

[Fore College Golf @ForeCollegeGolf]

@LouStagner @pembelson Brother, a +5 would be a more realistic scenario!

[Fore College Golf @ForeCollegeGolf]

If you are a competitive player & you are attempting to shape driver BOTH ways during tournament rounds, you are losing unnecessary (fractional) shots to the field
