You Think the Front Tees Are Easy Until You Try to Shoot 2 Over

A huge thanks to Jim Venetos for providing me with free access to his online school so I can continue to dial in my stillness swing mechanics and test them out under real pressure here on the channel! So close! Think playing from the forward tees is a breeze? Think again! In this episode, I’m putting my mid handicap to the test with a simple rule: I CANNOT move back to the regular tees until I shoot a +2 (33) or better. Today was an absolute battle of resilience. After a rough early double bogey on Hole 2, we fought back with some huge moments—including a 185-yard 4-hybrid on Hole 7 to leave just 12 yards, followed by a beautiful SW flop to 2 feet for a tap-in birdie! But with a target of +2, every single stroke counts, and a tough 3-putt late in the round left us hanging right on the edge. Can we scrape by, or are we stuck on the front tees for another episode?
