## Resource

In this episode of Next on the Tee , I’m joined by former PGA Tour winner David Peoples and Scott Golf Founder Scott Petersen . David shares what it takes to persevere at the highest level, from grinding through Q-School eight times to becoming medalist in 1989 and winning twice on the PGA Tour. We talk about the pressure of playing for your career, his experiences at The Masters , getting “in the zone” when he shot 62 (including a 29 back nine) at the Southern Open, and competing alongside legends like Jack Nicklaus . He also delivers simple, effective mental game and on-course strategy tips you can use right away. Then Scott Petersen takes us inside the world of custom golf club design , explaining how handcrafted precision leads to better distance control, tighter dispersion, and more consistency . We break down the importance of club fitting, what separates his process from big manufacturers, and why even PGA Tour free agents trust his clubs. If you want to improve your mindset, play smarter, and understand how the right equipment can elevate your game, this episode is packed with insights you can take straight to the course. #golf #pgatour #golftips #golfpodcast #golfinstruction #mentalgame #golfmentalgame #golfswing #bettergolf #improveyourgame #golfadvice #golftraining #golfpractice #golflife #golfer #golfaddict #instagolf #golfstagram #golfcommunity #themasters #augustanational #mastersgolf #jacknicklaus #qschoool #pgatourplayer #tourlife #golfstories #customclubs #golfclubs #clubfitting #golftechnology #golfgear #scottgolf #gameimprovement #distancecontrol #golfperformance #golfcoach #golfing #nextonthetee #sports podcast #golfshow #ai #aitechnology #cnc #3dprinting #pgachampionship
