Among various insights, Todd elaborates on "3 Things to Think Differently About" - The X-Factor, Flat Backswings with Deep Hands, and Distance vs Control.

As Todd says: "You can hit a solid draw off the tee. You can hit a high, soft flop shot. You can break 80 and you can love this game into your retirement years. You just need instruction that was made for you." Download this podcast or watch it on https://www.youtube.com/@MarkImmelman
