Mid-Range Swing
by Earnest Robinson, Jr
Welcome to Mid-Range Swing. I’m a golfer in my late 50s who loves golf but faces the reality of a bad back and limited flexibility. If you’ve traded your "long game" for a "smart game" because your body doesn't turn like it used to, you’re in the right place. Join me for weekly round recaps where I break down my wins and misses on the course, plus content specifically designed for senior golfers. I’m a mid-to-high handicapper on a mission to lower my scores, and I’m taking you along for the ride. Let’s change our scores and not our swing.Check out my blogs: https://midrangeswing.com/
