Unlocking Marginal Gains: Progressing Your Golf Game with a Busy Schedule
Hey guys, Matt here 👋 As a dad with a full plate—work, family, and everything in between—it’s easy to feel like improving your golf game is a huge commitment. But here’s something I’ve learned over the years: marginal gains. It's not about finding hours of free time you don’t have. It’s about small, consistent improvements over time that lead to massive results. As a PGA pro and dad of many, I’ve seen firsthand how these small tweaks can transform not only your game but your entire lifestyle. Here are three areas where you can apply marginal gains to see real progress, even with a busy schedule: 1. Home Putting Drills (10 mins a day): Set up a small putting mat at home or even use the carpet. Spending just 10 minutes on focused putting drills daily can drastically improve your feel and accuracy over time. It’s about repetition, not time spent. 2. TopTracer Sessions (1-2 times a week): On your way to or from work, squeeze in a quick 45-minute session. Use TopTracer data to track your swing and fine-tune your distances. Small adjustments made consistently over time lead to significant improvements in accuracy. 3. Fitness for Golf (Bodyweight + Core): You don’t need a gym to work on your golf fitness. Dedicate 10-15 minutes a few times a week for bodyweight exercises and core work. Stronger core = better balance and power in your swing. These aren’t huge time commitments, but by making small, consistent efforts, you’ll see marginal gains that lead to major progress—both in your game and your overall fitness. It’s all about fitting these changes into your lifestyle, not the other way around. Remember, it’s not about finding time—it’s about making time, even in the margins of your day. Let’s talk about how you can start implementing these changes to improve your game while staying present for your family. Drop any questions below or DM me if you want to dive deeper!
