The Masters

April 12, 2024 by Stephen Altschuler Leave a Comment

Gary Player rates The Masters as last of the four in significance, with The Open being first, the U.S. Open second, and the PGA third. I understand with Player being from South Africa. Myself, being American, rate The Masters as first, the U.S. Open second, The Open third and the PGA fourth. Simply said, The […]

Whoops, I forgot to mention/for paid subscribers only

November 12, 2023 by Stephen Altschuler 2 Comments

Sorry about that, but that’s the thing about a golf swing: there’s is always something the instructor forgets to mention, not intentionally, but just because the swing takes in so many parts of the body, and so many parts affect so many other parts that there’s bound to be something left out. Only later at […]

Starting the Downswing

November 6, 2023 by Stephen Altschuler Leave a Comment

There are more theories on what starts the downswing than mitochondria in the gut, and even the saavy mitochondria are a bit confused around the subject. Just check out You Tube. Well, maybe not. It’ll drive you nuts, especially when you go to driving a golf ball. Most of us get to the top of […]

A Deep Dive into the mental game`

October 8, 2023 by Stephen Altschuler Leave a Comment

It’s almost become a cliche: the mental game. Every pro seems to have a mental coach, a psychologist who advises them on…what? Not really sure. The players don’t talk much about the advice or what, if anything, they talk to their mental coaches about. Nor do golf writers or reporters ask players much about it. […]

No Fault Chipping: A Lesson from a Chip Whisperer

September 25, 2023 by Stephen Altschuler Leave a Comment

Is there anything more frustrating in golf than a flubbed chip? I think not. It is the one “stinking, little, easy shot” that has led to, I believe, the most broken shafts in the game. If there are other humans in the universe, I suspect many suddenly turn towards Earth at the miserable moment of […]

The One Key Swing Thought: Steady Now

September 14, 2023 by Stephen Altschuler Leave a Comment

If I were to suggest one key swing thought and only one, it would be one that Arnold Palmer told Ed Sullivan on the latter’s show in the early 60s. The rest of this post can be read by paid subscribers at golf360.substack.com. Thank you.

The Wisdom of Mo Norman, and a revolutionary tip on the grip

August 20, 2023 by Stephen Altschuler Leave a Comment

In my career as a mental health counselor, I’ve worked with people with autism, on various positions on the spectrum, and I’ve found they are generally acutely aware of everything in their surroundings, both externally and internally. The problem is they don’t know what to do with that information. There’s just too much of it […]
