  • Adam Young – Part One: Learn the Strike, Not the Swing
    Jan 22 2026

    Why impact matters more than how your swing looks.

    Part One (Season 2, Episode 3) How Low Can You Go?

    In Part One of our conversation with Adam Young — co-host of The Sweet Spot and author of The Practice Manual — we explore why chasing perfect positions so often fails, and why great ball-striking comes down to something far simpler.

    Adam explains:

    • Why wildly different swings can produce elite results
    • The Big Three impact factors every golfer must satisfy
    • How focusing on tasks and feedback beats mechanical fixes
    • Why “self-organising” movement leads to lasting improvement
    • The Golden Rule for fixing faults in real time

    This episode will challenge how you think about practice, technique, and what really matters when the club meets the ball.

  • Karl Morris - Part Two: Rewrite Your Golf Story
    Jan 15 2026

    Change Your Story. Change Your Golf.

    Part Two (Season 2, Episode 2) How Low Can You Go?

    In Part Two of our conversation with Karl Morris, we go deeper — into the stories golfers tell themselves, the identities they cling to, and why those narratives may be costing them far more shots than their swing ever could.

    If Part One challenged what you work on in your golf, Part Two challenges who you believe you are on the course.

    Karl Morris, one of the world’s leading golf mental and performance coaches, explains why most golfers aren’t limited by lack of ability - but by outdated stories they’ve unknowingly rehearsed for years.

    In this episode, we explore:

    • Why “shouldism” (the belief that you should make birdies) quietly fuels big scores
    • Why reducing doubles and triples matters far more than chasing birdies
    • The powerful exercise Karl uses to help players rewrite their golfing identity
    • How awareness of your “old story” gives you the freedom to choose a new one
    • Why gratitude isn’t soft thinking — but a genuine high-performance state
    • How gratitude reduces threat in the brain and helps you access the skill you already have

    Karl also shares one of the most moving stories you're likely to hear on a golf improvement podcast — The Tuesday Boys — a reminder that none of us get unlimited rounds, unlimited seasons, or unlimited chances.

    Every golfer eventually runs out of Tuesdays.

    Golf improvement isn’t about positive thinking.
    It isn’t about pretending bad shots don’t exist.
    And it’s definitely not about lowering your standards.

    It’s about changing your story — and changing your golf.

  • Karl Morris – Part One: The Skill Golfers Never Train (And Why They Stay Stuck)
    Jan 8 2026

    What if the biggest thing holding your golf back… isn’t your swing?

    Part One (Season 2, Episode 1)

    Season 2 of How Low Can You Go? starts with a question that challenges everything club golfers think they know about improvement.

    We’re joined by Karl Morris, one of the world’s leading golf mental and performance coaches, who has worked with some of the best players in the game — including Major champions Louis Oosthuizen, Graeme McDowell, and Darren Clarke.

    Many times on this podcast, we’ve quoted Karl’s books, referenced his ideas, and championed his work. So having him join us to open Season 2 feels like a defining moment for the show.

    In this episode, Karl explains why:

    • Anyone who says golf is all about the swing is wrong
    • Anyone who says it’s all in the mind is also wrong
    • Real improvement lives in the mind–body connection

    We explore why so many golfers work incredibly hard… yet stay stuck:

    • The crucial difference between developing skills and accessing skills
    • Why golfers often lose access to shots they know they can hit
    • How the brain can see the golf course as a place of threat, not opportunity
    • Why acceptance may be the single most important mental skill in golf
    • And a simple but powerful method Karl uses to help players “pre-load” acceptance before they even tee it up

    This is not about giving up.

    It’s not about lowering standards.

    It’s about embracing the reality of the game — and finally unlocking better performance.

    🎧 Part Two dives deeper into stories, identity, gratitude, and how changing the way you think about golf could change your results faster than another range session ever will.
