This week is a replay of an interview I recorded with Scott Fawcett almost 2 years ago. He is the creator of Decade golf and course strategy coach to many PGA tour players including Will Zalatoris, Stewart Cink and Webb Simpson. In this episode Scott shares his story of how he came up with the Decade system and also with all the data he has collected what mistakes Amateurs are making which are costing them the most shots.
