Finding Balance

Yesterday at 7:00 PM

In this episode, we dig into how to balance junior golf with everything else. We talk through how much practice is too much, when to take breaks, how to build a tournament schedule that fits your family, and what to expect as your kid grows and matures. We also cover mental recovery, budgeting for tournaments, involving your junior in planning, and why practicing with a purpose matters more than just putting in hours.
