    How do I lower my handicap with 45 minutes of practice?

    #86. Renowned Golf-Pro Kyle Morris joins Doug to share his KPI formula that is helping busy golfers break 100, 90 and 80 when they only have 45-minutes per week to practice.

    Kyle Morris is the owner of The Golf Room Everywhere, and a Golf Channel Academy lead coach. He was named #1 instructor in Ohio, best young teacher in America, and was nominated top 50 in America.

Heaven Sent!

I love this podcast. I’m a black golfer that has been looking for a different prospective on the game of golf. This pod really does that. I love hearing about the real ups and downs of being a black golfer. Keep up the great work! Fan for life!

Consistent & Solid

Cheyenne and Doug consistently bring forward good, relevant content. Occasionally the two will invite industry personnel which is always a nice mix.

Always looking forward to pressing play on Thursday! (Tomorrow, get here!)
