“Your future best golf is probably being built inside your worst rounds.”

In Part 2 with Jon Sherman from the 🎧 The Sweet Spot Podcast and author of The Four Foundations of Golf, we dive deep into the psychology of golf improvement.

Jon explains why golfers give up too early during rounds, how resilience is built on your worst days, and why “getting your hands dirty” might be the key to shooting lower scores.

We also discuss:

• how Jon works with PGA Tour winner Mackenzie Hughes
• handling pressure and expectations on the golf course
• why golf is “an infinite game”
• mental game mistakes amateur golfers make
• simple stat tracking that actually helps
• why chasing lower handicaps doesn’t always lead to happiness
• process vs results in golf improvement

If you’ve ever struggled mentally during a bad round, lost confidence on the course, or wondered how better players stay composed under pressure — this episode is for you.

Featuring:
Jon Sherman — author of The Four Foundations of Golf, co-host of The Sweet Spot podcast, and coach to PGA Tour players including Mackenzie Hughes.

“Most golfers don’t actually understand what good golf looks like for their skill level.”

Today we’re joined by Jon Sherman — author of The Four Foundations of Golf, founder of Practical Golf, and co-host of The Sweet Spot Podcast.

This is one of the most honest conversations we’ve had yet about the mental side of golf.

⛳ IN THIS EPISODE

• Why golfers put so much pressure on themselves
• Fear of choking and protecting good rounds
• Why expectations destroy enjoyment
• What “good golf” actually looks like
• Why elite golf is mostly avoiding disasters
• Why mid-handicap golfers might be the most tortured golfers on earth

Jon also explains why most golfers fundamentally misunderstand scoring, consistency and improvement — and how changing your expectations can completely transform both your golf and your enjoyment of the game.

🎯 IF YOU’VE EVER...

• Cared too much about your score
• Let one bad hole ruin your round
• Panicked trying to break 80, 90 or 100
• Wondered why golf feels mentally exhausting...

…this episode is for you.

🎙️ Part 2 coming next week.
