Tony and longtime collaborator Matt Rudy sit down with Richard Hughes — an optometrist, sports vision researcher, and author of Visual Edge Golf Performance — to unpack something almost nobody talks about in golf instruction: eye dominance.
Richard breaks down "type one" vs. "type two" dominance, why 53% of the best players in the world (including Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods) are cross-dominant compared to just 30% of the general population, and why forcing a player into a "textbook" setup can wreck a swing that their eyes have quietly compensated for over years.
Includes a simple test you can do at home to find your own dominant eye.

Tony and Jackson spend a day at Dutchman's Pipe working with a full slate of tour players headed into Q-school season — Rafa Campos, Ty Gingrich, James Earl, and more — and break down the four things that actually move the needle, for tour pros and weekend golfers alike: dialing in posture and setup, building a real pre-shot process, learning not to react to every miss, and actually understanding what you're working on and why.
Plus Colby's "electric fence" drill for fixing early extension, and a great story about keeping junior golf in perspective.

This week Tony is joined by Coach Justin Parsons — mentor to Ben Carr, Brandon Grace, Blades Brown, and Lucas Glover — on a Golf Live discussion to break down how tour players actually build their wedge game.
Forget chasing perfect distances: JP walks through the "15-foot rule" (why even the best players on tour average just 15 feet from the hole inside 150 yards), how to build a wedge system around 5-yard gaps instead of guessing, and the "3 L rule" for reading any short game shot — Lie, Land, Leave.
Plus a great story about a young player learning the hard way that temperature and altitude change everything.

This week on Tour Coach: the one word that fixes more golf games than any swing tip ever will — awareness.
Tony sits down with longtime PGA Tour caddie Donald "Coop" Cooper, instructor Wayne Flint, and a PGA Tour mental performance coach Dr. Greg Cartin ("Doc") at Dutchman's Pipe to break down why most golfers don't struggle from bad mechanics — they struggle from not knowing what they're actually capable of.
From knowing your real carry distances to understanding your start line to why "it's just a 4-iron" has ruined more rounds than any bad swing, this one applies whether you're a 30-handicapper or a tour pro.
