There is a specific kind of “golf fever” that hits in April. The air is finally warm, the grass is waking up, and the dream of lowering that scoring average feels more attainable than ever. Last week, I headed out to Sligo Creek Golf Course in Silver Spring, Maryland to put the Mid-Range Swing to…

The first round of the Mid-Range Swing 2026 season is officially in the books and the journey to 92 has begun! It was a day of valuable lessons, technical surprises, and a strong baseline for my journey to lower my scoring average to a 92. The Conditions and the Walk It was a brisk and…

As a golfer pushing 60 with a bad back and limited flexibility, I’ve realized my goals aren’t about smashing 300-yard drives or getting a new golf swing. I’m focusing on my…

We’ve all been there. You’re standing on the tee box, you take a massive backswing, and you swing as hard as you can—only to watch the ball slice three fairways over or dribble twenty yards into the weeds. For years, I played “ego golf.” I thought more power was the only answer to a better…
