  • Summary

  • Welcome to Wicked Smart Golf - hosted by Michael Leonard. This golf podcast will help you shoot lower scores and play your best WITHOUT changing your swing. Michael is a full-time golf writer who has written over 2,000,000 words about the sport since 2017 and been playing golf for more than 20 years. In high school, he dropped 50 shots in four years (124-74), played college golf in Southern California, and now plays competitively in Arizona through the USGA, Arizona Golf Association, and Outlaw Tour. He even went to Q-school in 2019 as an amateur golfer. His goal is simple - help golfers shoot lower scores and drop their handicap without all the technical swing changes. Because let's face it, no matter how good you get, your swing will never be perfect and a work in progress. The good news is that you don't need a "perfect" swing to break 80 or become a scratch golfer. In this podcast, he will teach you how to play more consistent golf by mastering your mindset, playing wicked smart golf on the course, learn to practice like a pro, and simplify the short game for lower scores. Enjoy weekly solo episodes and plenty of interviews with golf coaches, elite players, best-selling authors, and other inspiring golf stories.

    349: 3 Easy Offseason Tips to STOP 3-Putting
    Dec 20 2024

    Want to putt better fast? Try out the Look and Shoot Method now!

    Putting is key to playing wicked smart golf. Follow these three tips:

    1. Invest in a custom putter fitting. Make sure your flat stick is right for you (check lie angle and length specifically).
    2. Invest in an indoor putting mat. PrimePutt is my favorite as it rolls wicked pure and feels like you're on the course.
    3. Use training aids to start each session. Develop good fundamentals using the Pro Path Putting Mirror or the Putting Thing from WHYGOLF.

    Watch this video to learn more putting practice tips.
