Your Best Golf Starts with a Good Miss

Smarter Golf Starts with Smarter Decisions

What is the Good Miss?

It’s a new approach to better golf

Most golfers chase perfect shots. The Good Miss flips that mindset. Instead of relying on flawless execution, you’ll learn how to manage risk, plan your misses, and make decisions that keep your scorecard intact — even when your swing isn’t cooperating. 

This is not swing instruction. This is smarter golf.

Why it works

The Good Miss:

  • Eliminates the decisions that lead to blow-out holes

  • Creates consistency through predictable, low-risk choices

  • Builds confidence by giving every shot a purpose

  • Makes golf more enjoyable, round after round

Best of all, everything you’ll learn here is FREE!

Beginners

Learn how to keep the ball in play, avoid penalties, and build your confidence from the very first tee to the last putt.

Who is it for?

High Handicappers

Shift from “hope golf” to predictable, margin‑based decisions. Break 100 consistently and eliminate the big numbers.

Mid Handicappers

Turn inconsistency into structure. Manage dispersion, avoid short‑siding, and break 85 more often.

Low Handicappers / Strong Amateurs

Plan precise misses, structure aggression, and gain a competitive edge through disciplined decision‑making.

  • Every golf hole — par 3, 4, or 5 — can be simplified into four stages. Master these, and you’ll play smarter golf without changing your swing. 

  • Forego the Ego! Choose the club you can keep in play. Avoid penalties and position yourself for a stress‑free next shot. Distance helps, but it's not the 'driving' force behind good scores.

  • Start planning your miss. Identify your Good Miss Zone and avoid short siding yourself at all costs. This does not mean avoiding the green, just a part of it.

  • Do what is necessary to get your ball on to the putting surface. We're not hole-hunting yet, unless it's there for the taking. There is a time and place for the 'Texas Wedge' off the green. You know your skills - play to them.

  • It's a two‑putt strategy. Leave your first putt inside four feet - lag it if you need to. Get the feel of distance first and build your confidence to roll that ball up to the hole ... and in.
