This episode features John Graham, a PGA Tour and LPGA Tour putting instructor known for his practical, results-driven approach to putting performance. John joins Erik and Tyson to break down what effective putting training should actually look like and discusses why golfers often make putting far more complicated than it needs to be. They chat about how Tour players practice speed, line, and green reading differently than amateurs, how those habits have evolved over time, and which skills move the needle most for everyday golfers. John also shares simple, game-based drills—like ladder-style challenges that players can immediately take to the practice green to improve aim, speed control, and confidence.

Hosts: Erik J. Barzeski, Tyson Deskins
