Talking Golf Getaways Host Mitch Laurance, Top 25 Instructor Tom Patri, & GolfTec CEO Joe Assell Join Me on Next on the Tee Golf Podcast
On this edition of Next on the Tee I'm joined by Actor turned Talking Golf Getaway Host Mitch Laurance, Golf Tips Magazine Top 25 Instructor Tom Patri and GolfTec Co-Founder & CEO Joe Assell.
Mitch Laurance shared stories from his recent visit to play newly redesigned Pinehurst #4 plus he got in a round on famed #2 as well. I also got Mitch's thoughts on "The Match" between Tiger and Phil, where he felt the most pressure: playing in a celebrity golf tournament, doing live theater or providing clues to a contestant in the bonus round of $25,000 Pyramid? Mitch also talked about meeting and getting to know one of his idols Willie McCovey and getting invited to play in his charity golf tournament.
Tom Patri talked about the importance for all of us to get properly fit for our golf clubs; it isn't just for better players. He also shared tips for how to continue to play good golf after 50, 60, or 70 and the Links to Freedom program he's doing for our Military personnel and Veterans.
Joe Assell shared the story of where the idea for GolfTec came from and how he and his business partner got it off the ground. Today they are the largest employer of PGA Professionals and conduct over a million lessons worldwide. Joe also talked about how you can come in and their Instructors can start to fix swing flaws after seeing only 2 swings. Their lessons are all video taped and available online so you can access and review them anytime from any device.
