Stop Practising the Wrong Things
Every weekend, golfers pour hours into the driving range, hammering balls with their driver, chasing a few extra yards. Meanwhile, their scorecard tells a different story: three-putts, poor course decisions, and scrambling disasters are where the strokes actually pile up.
The Grand Plan was written to fix that. This book is your roadmap to playing smarter, more strategic golf — the kind of golf that actually shows up on the scorecard.
What You'll Learn
Course Management
Learn to think your way around the course. When to be aggressive, when to play safe, and how to identify the targets that give you the best chance of a good score. Stop making hero plays and start making smart plays.
Green Reading
Understanding break, speed, and grain is the difference between a two-putt and a three-putt. You'll learn a systematic approach to reading greens that takes the guesswork out of putting.
Golf Stats That Matter
Not all stats are created equal. Forget fairways hit — learn which metrics actually predict your scores and how to track them effectively. Strokes gained, scrambling percentage, and putts per green in regulation will change how you think about your game.
Structured Practice
Random practice produces random results. The Grand Plan lays out purposeful practice routines with measurable goals, so every session moves you closer to your scoring targets.
Short Game Techniques
Chipping, pitching, bunker play, and everything from 100 yards in. This is where scores are made, and where most golfers lose the most shots without realising it.
The Mental Game
Pre-shot routines, handling pressure, bouncing back from bad holes, and maintaining focus for 18 holes. Mental golf is real golf, and this chapter will give you the tools to stay composed.
"The best golfers in the world don't have the best swings — they make the best decisions." — The Grand Plan
