Sunsets, Seaside Golf & Sisterhood: The Coronado Retreat Recap
Our 4th annual Coronado Golf Retreat was one for the books — and this episode takes you behind the scenes of one of the most meaningful Golf Party Live experiences we've ever created. This year's retreat had a completely different vibe because everyone stayed together under one roof at our beach house. The connection, laughter, vulnerability, friendships, and community became the true heartbeat of the trip. Because Golf Party Live retreats are about so much more than golf. These retreats are about women putting themselves out there, building confidence, trying new things, making memories, and forming friendships that continue long after the final putt drops. Joining us for this recap episode is retreat attendee Heather Bower, who shares her perspective and experience from the week. Heather is a newer golfer and a wonderful example of the supportive and welcoming environment that makes these retreats so special.

Enemy #1 & #2 — What's Sabotaging Your Golf Game
This is an episode we've been wanting to do for a long time—because we see this all the time in lessons and on the range. If you feel stuck, inconsistent, or overwhelmed in your golf game… this one might hit home. We're breaking down the two biggest hidden enemies that sabotage your progress—and honestly, they might surprise you. 🚫 Enemy #1: Spouses & Significant Others Coaching We get into why this is such a common (and tricky) issue in golf: Why well-intentioned coaching often backfires What actually happens to the golfer receiving that advice The impact it can have on both your game and your relationship 💡 And don't worry—we also share how spouses and partners can help in a way that's actually supportive and productive. 📱 Enemy #2: Social Media & YouTube Instruction This one is HUGE. While it seems helpful, it's often one of the biggest reasons golfers struggle. We break down the three major problems: You don't know the source It's completely out of sequence It doesn't know YOU—your swing, your tendencies, or what you're working on The result? Too many swing thoughts No consistency Zero clarity ✅ What To Do Instead We walk you through a better approach: Pick a trusted coach or system Focus on simple, foundational fundamentals Understand that improvement happens in stages Golf is hard enough—you don't need: ❌ 10 voices ❌ 10 swing thoughts ❌ 10 different opinions You need: ✔️ Clarity ✔️ Simplicity ✔️ Trust in your process If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend—especially one who might need to hear it 😉 Thanks for listening to Golf Party Live. As always… have fun out there and go low 💛⛳️

What Actually Matters in Golf (More Than I Ever Realized)
📝 Episode Description Today's episode is a special one. I'm recording this right after finishing my Club Championship — and it got me thinking… not about swing mechanics or perfect shots, but about what actually matters when the pressure is real. Because here's the truth: Golf is not played the same on the range as it is on the course — and it's definitely not played the same under pressure. So today, we're diving into the things that matter more than I ever realized — the elements that truly show up when it counts. ⛳ What We Cover *Why it's not your swing — it's your tempo *Tempo as the foundation of consistency *Finishing your swing as a true sign of commitment *What your reactions under stress reveal about your game *Why commitment to the shot is a game changer *The role of confidence and mindset in every round 💡 Key Takeaway It's not about having the prettiest swing. It's not about being perfect. And it's definitely not about never feeling nervous. It's about your tempo, your commitment, your mindset — and how you respond when pressure shows up. 💬 Final Thoughts The swing you bring to the course is only part of the story. The mindset you bring is what carries you through the round. Thank you for tuning in. I'm so grateful for this game, this community, and for all of you who continue to show up, learn, and grow through golf.

Yardages 101: How to Choose the Right Club, Read the Numbers & Play SMART Golf
Have you ever stood in the fairway holding three different clubs… panicking… because you have no clue what to hit? Or wondered… "Am I supposed to hit my 7 iron 100 yards? 150 yards?? … WHAT EVEN IS NORMAL??" Then this episode is for you. Because one of the biggest confidence builders in golf is understanding yardages — and once you do, your entire game becomes calmer, smarter, and way more fun. And if you've ever heard someone say "front, center, back" and thought it sounded like a seating chart… 😂 you are definitely in the right place. In This Episode, We Break Down: ✅ What "yardage" actually means We start from the very beginning so it finally makes sense: *What yardage is measuring *The difference between carry yardage vs total yardage *Why some shots fly farther (or shorter) than you expect ✅ The 3 yardages every golfer needs to know Most greens give you three numbers: Front Center Back And here's the golden rule: ⭐ Play to the CENTER unless you have a very good reason not to. (Seriously — center yardage is your best friend.) How to Figure Out Your Yardages (Even as a Beginner) Yardages aren't something you magically "know" — you learn them as you grow. We share a simple way to start: *Go to the range and hit 10 balls with each club *Toss the bad swings *Average the solid shots *Write it down Important reminder: ⚠️ The range lies. Range balls are often harder, heavier, and less responsive, meaning your range yardages may be shorter than your on-course yardages And we also talk about why your yardages change week to week based on: *wind *temperature *ball contact *your body & mindset *confidence level (and yes… that's a real thing!) If you're a newer golfer playing often, you'll need to revisit your yardages regularly — because you're improving quickly. Tools for Finding Yardages We cover the most common options and what we recommend: *Rangefinders *GPS apps *Cart GPS systems We talk about what we like best, what feels easiest for beginners, and what gives the most confidence on the course. External Factors That Change Yardage - because golf isn't played in a vacuum — we break down: *wind (headwind vs tailwind) *uphill and downhill shots temperature changes *slopes and uneven lies …and why these things matter more than you think. Real-Life Yardage Decision Making We walk through what it looks like in real time: *how to pace yardages like a pro *how to make smarter club selections *how to stop second-guessing yourself And Brittney Boo shares what she's learned about yardages in her own beginner journey — the wins, the mistakes, and what actually helped her. Rapid Fire Yardage Tips We wrap up with quick practical tips you can take straight to the course to immediately start playing smarter and more confidently. Thank You As always, thank you for listening, sharing, and referring Golf Party Live to your friends. We appreciate you more than you know — this community means everything to us. 💛 Have fun and go low! ⛳✨
