| Golf Isn't That Serious: Jargon, Swing Tips, and Real Coaching | Good Misses Ep. 1 | 22 Sep 2026 | 01:05:01 | |
Kieran Harris and JT are full-time golf coaches, one in Toronto and one on the Alabama Gulf Coast. In the first episode of Good Misses they take on the noise: jargon that sounds smart and helps nobody, death by a thousand swing tips, and the algorithm that keeps feeding you more. Along the way: why nobody coaches Josh Allen the way golf coaches golfers, what Butch Harmon actually asks Tiger Woods between rounds, the golf swing in two sentences, and Josh Donaldson, the 2015 AL MVP who swings it in the 130s.
