Logic has no business in distance training

I don’t care what side of the political aisle you’re on, we think the other side has zero logic. 

Spoiler alert: they also think our side is not using logic. 

Humans don’t operate on logic (not enough, anyway). 

And golf is no different.  

For example… 

Why do we want more distance? 

Shorter approaches equal better scoring chances, right? 

Of course. 

But, that’s not really why we want more distance. 

Our lizard brains want more distance. 

Here’s why:

1. “Impress the Crowd” Syndrome: Even if the crowd is just one guy on the green next to your tee box, the golf course has become a grand stage. Our goal? Show what Alphas we are with Herculean drives.

The belief? A monstrous drive is directly proportional to the number of admiring glances from the fairer sex. And complimentary suds from the betas.

2. “Ego-Booster” Missile: Our cavemen brains believe that outdriving our buddies is the secret to asserting our dominance and becoming the Alpha of the group – and I think we’re right.

The longer the drive, the more dominant. 

If you can’t relate to either of those things, congratulations! 

You’re more logical than the rest of us lunatics.  

In our Hyper-Elastic Distance training, we chuckle because we know it’s all true.  

We know we’re illogical.  

We’re friggin’ golfers.  

I can give you stats and strategies why distance is important to shooting lower scores…  

And it is. 

But today, who cares about logic? 

It’s golf. 

So, let’s get to it. 

STAY STRONG

PS – We’ve got two choices:

  1. Listen to our intolerable buddies’ trash-talking.
  2. Become the intolerable buddy trash-talking:)

In any event, the Hyper-Elastic Mobility Bonus only lasts for a few days, so I’d go check it out right away lest we all continue to be shamed on the tee box.
