Course Review – Texas Star Golf Course
Euless’ Texas Star Golf Course has been the best course the mid-cities has to offer since it opened back in 1997. The 18-hole Keith Foster design has evolved over the years along with the areas surrounding the course. In 2025, Texas Star underwent a total greens overhaul, updating putting surfaces and adding to the tremendous […]
Instruction – 2026, The Year of the Dialed Wedge
I get this question all the time: “How can I have better control of my distances with my wedges?” Far too often, I see students lose unnecessary strokes around the greens from not being able to control their distances with their wedges and their ball either ending up short, where they have to chip again, […]

Course Review – Meadowbrook Fort Worth
Meadowbrook Golf Course in Fort Worth has long been a Metroplex municipal staple. Originally opened in 1924 as the nine-hole Meadowbrook Country Club, this east side property was purchased by the city in 1938 and later renovated by Ralph Plummer in the early 1960s. Now, just after the course’s 100th-birthday celebration in 2024, Meadowbrook Golf […]
Instruction – Cross-Sport Motion
One of the most effective ways to develop athletic movement in golf is through cross-sport motion training – learning how the body moves dynamically in other throwing or striking sports. Two powerful examples come from football and frisbee. Throwing a football with your trail hand and a frisbee with your lead hand can both train […]
Instruction – Lower Scores Quick With These Putting Drills
If you want to lower scores quickly, putting is the fastest path. Most golfers leave strokes on the green not because of poor technique, but because they lack start-line control, distance consistency, and practice under pressure to perform on the course. The following drills train all of these skills and can be done in just […]
Golf Science – Biomechanics & The Golf Swing
Imagine having the opportunity to interview a man who has appeared in more TV and radio shows, podcasts, and newspaper/magazine articles than almost anyone (no, not Shohei!) and who is also one of the leading sports biomechanists in the world. Meet Glenn Fleisig, Ph.D., of the American Sports Medicine Institute (ASMI). He has researched the […]
Course Review – TPC at The Nelson Golf & Sports Club
The Nelson Golf & Sports Club may not be a familiar name to those in DFW, but that’s only because it’s a new name, and not a new property. A little over a year ago, the once-TPC Las Colinas and Four Seasons underwent some ownership changes. The hotel is now managed by The Ritz-Carlton and […]
Instruction – Sequence and Weight Shift
One of the most common swing faults golfers struggle with is poor swing sequence. Most amateurs tend to start the downswing by rotating the upper body or throwing the arms first before using the lower body resulting in poor contact, out-to-in path and lack of proper weight shift through impact. Improper sequence and weight shift […]
Fitness – Build a Golf Ready Core
Golfers are often focus on swing mechanics, clubs, or flexibility drills, but without a strong, stable core, even the best swing cues fall flat. The core acts as the transfer station between your lower and upper body, allowing you to generate rotational power while maintaining control and balance throughout the swing. A weak core can […]
