“Every day preach the gospel and sometimes use words.”
When people witness their parents, coaches, and mentors being loving spouses, committed parents, motivated professionals, and active community members, they will likely develop these same character traits. Lead by example.

COACHES: Whatever you condone in your program is what you should be prepared to own and accept in your program. Don't be surprised when you get the very things you allow. What you accept, permit, reward, allow, or reinforce in your program becomes your culture.

V cool to hear former world No. 1 Justin Rose say he sought out Mark Blackburn because Max Homa’s game is “aspirational.”
Get you a show that can do both—a hardcore golf interview with newest winner, *and* the boys chopping it up with Nate Bargatze for 90-min.

I asked Max Homa’s coach Mark Blackburn what makes him special when he’s in contention. Been thinking about his answer all day:

Max Homa hardly missed a shot on a chilly afternoon at beefy Torrey Pines. Birdied both par 3s on the back nine by carving long irons into tucked pins. Looked extremely comfortable the entire time, too.
An absolute assassin when in contention. What a player he's become.

Coaches: Never forget, the more respect you’ve built with your players, the more demanding you can be. You earn that right by seeing them & treating them like people first & players second. The greater the trust & respect between player & coach, the more demands leaders can make!

We know that increased lead leg vertical force when the shaft is vertical on the downswing is highly correlated to increased club speed.
Many ams produce their max vertical too late in downswing.
sharing how backswing unweighting can lead to more downswing force.

As a coach, put your players first. Their development, health, and well-being should always be your number one priority.

Having a coach who believes in you/always stays positive is one thing, but having a coach who TEACHES you to believe in yourself, be a positive force, keep a great attitude is uncommon & underrated. Those are the types of coaches who impact kids, make a difference, change lives!

No matter how great your drills and plays are, if you don’t connect and inspire your players it’s hard to make a difference.
