He teaches golfers how to think under pressure.We dive into:⛳ Gareth’s earliest memory of golf and the compelling moment that made him go all in.🧠 How elite players actually practise the short game and why most amateur practice does not transfer to the course.🎯 The biggest myths in chipping and putting, including the truth about “soft hands”.🔥 What pressure really feels like around the greens and how to train for it.🎒 The small habits, routines and mindset shifts that save shots quickly without rebuilding your swing.😂 Quick fire moments, honest reflections and a Candle Lit Dinner Six to round out the show.A thoughtful and insightful conversation about mastery, performance, coaching and how to score better without making golf more complicated.🎧 Listen now:www.paddytalksgolf.comAvailable on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and all major podcast platforms.The PaddyTalks Golf Podcast is powered by ForeGolf Custom.Book your tour level custom fitting session now at:www.foregolf.ie/booking Hosted on Acast.
