Tiger Woods claimed during an interview at the HSBC Champions event that he now feels "refreshed, recharged and ready" to play golf again after his recent bout with exhaustion. We take a tip from Tiger Woods and pass it along to our listeners. Click here for Tiger Woods' tips on mental toughness!

Cold weather? No problem! Barry and I aren't about to let a little dip in the temperature stop us from playing golf in the great outdoors! We discuss the changes you might find on the golf course during this season and how to deal with lost golf balls and harder playing surfaces. While we're at it, we give a little refresher course on the basics..don't forget to G.A.S.P before every swing!

Finally, we discuss a quote from the great Babe Didrikson Zaharias who has a sound viewpoint regarding practice before your round.

Golf for Beginners Podcast: We're joining Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson in a well-deserved break

Golf for Beginners logo


Both Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson have opted out of the Tour Championship. Tiger says that he needs to recharge his batteries and Phil is just trying to forget his U.S. Open "flop".

Now that Barry and I have a year's worth of Golf for Beginners podcasts in the hopper, we have also decided to take a short respite. This occurence doesn't necessarily mean that we aren't going to provide our listeners with quality golf tips and our usual banter.

We have compiled a few of our "vintage" podcasts, filled with Tiger tips, Michelle Wie frenzy and ample instruction to keep you satisfied during our break.

For example, in June we discussed how Phil Mickelson's course management mistakes can help you play smarter. Click here to listen.

And, how can we forget Michelle Wie's attempt to qualify for the U.S. Open at Winged Foot and how LPGA golfers have had to vie for attention amidst the rising young teenager's presence. Click here to listen.

Finally, a real "oldie" from the Golf for Beginners archives. A look back at our first podcast! Watch us grow from real beginners to old hats! Click here to listen.

Enjoy!
