Cordie shares his journey chasing 180 → 190 → 200mph Ball Speed, why most golfers “speed train” the wrong way, and how dedicated sessions (with a real warmup and real volume) raise your floor, not just your ceiling. Then the conversation pivots into improvement that transfers: Get Better Feedback (video + data), Practice with a Purpose (technique vs skill vs performance), and build a Wedge System that makes “shot #3” a weapon. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why “intent” is the missing ingredient in most speed training (and what a real session looks like) The #1 speed-training sign you’re actually going hard enough (yes—it should feel out of control) How video changes everything: what you feel vs what you actually do Why swing changes are harder than golfers think—and what it really takes to make them stick A simple practice framework: Technique vs Skill vs Performance (and why most practice fails) How great course management can free you up (and when “send it” actually makes sense) Why dispersion is a shotgun pattern, not a “rifle”—and how to use it to play smarter, and A wedge gapping starting point most golfers skip (and why it’s killing your scoring.) Key Takeaways: Speed is trainable—if you train it on purpose. Dedicated sessions, real warmup, and enough volume matter. Feedback is everything. Video + launch monitor data keep you honest and accelerate change. Practice needs a goal.
