Sounds like a great combination! Grilling at the Green hosted by Jeff Tracy brings all of that and more for your listening pleasure. Jeff’s love of golf prompted him to create Grilling at the Green several years back and the show has been going and growing strong ever since. Jeff started playing in middle school with wretched old clubs in the bottom pasture. (An errant tee ball to the noggin left a permanent impression on one of his childhood friends.) Jeffs got better clubs now, but still, be careful where you stand when he’s hitting off the tee! Grilling at the Green is not about fixing your swing, correcting your bad putting or how to get out of the sand better. It’s really about people in and around the golf world. Players, both amateur and pro. Authors, TV hosts, teachers, celebrities, weekend warriors, (hackers for short) manufacturers and club house icons make the guest list. Yes, we talk about golf but also cover travel, food fun and life.. Everyone on the show has a story. Grilling at the Green is the home for interviews with Frank Nobilo, Dotty Pepper, Anika, Gay Van Sickle, Kay Cockerill, Sarah Kemp, Lisa Cornwell, Keith Hirshland, Charlie Rymer.

I explain that small factors such as dirt or grass in the grooves can change spin and create unexpected flyers, so we must keep clubs clean and check faces before shots. I describe how experienced testers can read club geometry to predict launch and spin, but we also caution against marketing claims that outpace relevant testing conditions. I emphasize that golfers should use launch monitors to learn their own club head speed, launch angle, and spin rate and to compare equipment under appropriate conditions. I note that modern simulators now reproduce ball flight well and are valuable for practice, social play, and home use, while arena formats like TGL need entertainment and personality to fully succeed. I recommend seeking mentors and doing regular equipment and swing checkups to improve steadily. We close by urging players to use data, maintain their gear, and play with intention.
