Better Golf Academy: Strategy to Awesome Golf

Better Golf Daily: It Takes a Village

June 12, 2026·6 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

What if the missing piece in your golf game isn't a swing fix — it's the right person in your corner? Today I'm telling the story of J.J. Spaun, who lost 50 pounds after a diabetes misdiagnosis, watched his entire sense of his own swing disappear, and had to rebuild everything from scratch. The coach he found didn't give him a checklist. He gave him a feeling — borrowed from a skateboard trick — and it changed everything. This episode is about feel over thought, but more than that, it's about the village behind every great performance. From Serena Williams to a rainy Sunday at Oakmont, the through line is the same: nobody gets there alone. If you've ever tried to figure out your game in isolation, this one is for you.
