Senior To Scratch Golf Show
Paul Nayyar
Frequency: 1 episode/18d. Total Eps: 29

My upcoming golf journey in my 50's, where my winter 2024 index is around 5.0 and my goal is to get to scratch handicap.
For once in my golfing life, I'm not going to rely on hope to improve my game. I will introduce my improvement strategies, ranging from fitness & nutrition to mental game to practice plans (offseason and in-season).
I hope others will get some useful insight into their game, as well.

Episode 7 - You Oughta Know (Expectations)
Season 1 · Episode 7
dimanche 21 avril 2024 • Duration 07:29
I will add a bit of realism to the equation, where I will talk about my shot distribution and then the average PGA tour pro, as I realize that I'm not really that bad. Managing expectations will be the key to remain calm throughout the round, which will hopefully lead to better decision making and lower scores.

Episode 2 - What's Food Got To Do With It (Got To Do With It)?
Season 1 · Episode 2
samedi 9 mars 2024 • Duration 09:29
The food that we put in our bodies is likely the most important factor in health, and therefore body function. When trying to improve in golf, millimeters of club face matter, and hence any nagging inflammation from improper food intake will impact on-course performance.
Join me as I introduce some concepts of what to eat, when to eat, and what to get tested for to maintain your golf goals well past 50.

lundi 4 mars 2024 • Duration 08:59
Provide a brief introduction to myself, Paul Nayyar.
When did I start this silly sport? What did I do to get better in the past (hint: not much)? What facets am I looking to improve to shave 5 shots off of my index this year?
