522 Premium: Finding The Right Golf Glove that Works for Your Hand and Your Game. Jan 13, 2016

Show notes

522 Premium: Because golf is steeped in tradition, most golfers wear a glove, but aren’t sure why. Keeping your hands dry is a good reason, but did you know that the correct glove can prevent fatigue and alleviate pain? Most golf gloves are equally equipped to do nothing more than just keep your marker attached. Bionic Golf Gloves are designed by a leading orthopedic hand specialist to give you more comfort, a better grip and still be twice as durable as a standard leather glove. The pads provide stability to keep the club from twisting at impact, and mini terrycloth towels inside the glove deliver superior moisture control. But that’s not all! Our guest this week is Cheryl Fink of Bionic Gloves who explains the technology, science, and multiple benefits Bionic Gloves provide over every other glove on the market.

520: 2015 PGA Tour MattyB Awards & 10th Anniversary Celebration! Dec 28, 2015

Show notes

520: This is our 6th annual skewering of the PGA Tour & Players as the MattyB Awards takes center stage with comedian/actor/TV Personality Matty Blake. As he’s done in the past, these awards have a tendency to upset some PGA Tour fans, so this year we make it a drinking game! Each time Matty says something offensive, we take a swig (Matty:beer / Fred:vodka) so the show gets a little…OK, a lot out of hand. This year’s awards include the David Duval MattyB for Courage, The Hottest Wife, the best & worst golf related Media Appearance, the Middle Finger Matty, Mr. Blake-well’s best & worst dressed, Player and Moment of the Year…and more! Watch the entire episode from our live Blab event here.
And here's the link to the article written about Matty's first hole in one!
This is also our 10th Anniversary of weekly episodes since 2005! Thanks to all the friends I've made through the podcast, to everyone who has enjoyed Golf Smarter over the years, to those who sent in congratulatory messages, and to all those listeners who I've had the pleasure to play golf with over the last decade.
