The Annual Equipment Cycle: Why Your Golf Swing Matters More Than the Latest Release
Every spring brings the same promise: revolutionary new golf clubs that will transform your game. Longer drives, straighter shots, improved forgiveness, enhanced feel. The marketing suggests that this year's models represent breakthrough technology that makes last year's clubs obsolete. Here's the reality the marketing doesn't emphasize: most annual improvements are incremental at best. That "game-changing" new driver might give you three to five extra yards and marginally be

Golf in Asian Business Culture: Where Respect and Relationships Converge
In South Korean business culture, the golf course isn't just where deals happen, it's where relationships are tested, respect is earned, and trust is built through shared experience. Understanding this cultural dimension of golf can be the difference between accessing opportunities and watching them pass by. I recently witnessed this firsthand when a colleague was invited to meet with a Korean business leader who owns billion-dollar properties and has been a founding member o

The "Good Enough" Golf Standard: Why You Don't Need to Be Perfect to Belong
Here's the secret that no one tells beginners: most business golf isn't played by great golfers. The executives closing deals on the back nine aren't shooting par. The lawyers building client relationships aren't hitting every fairway. The doctors strengthening referral networks aren't sinking thirty-foot putts. They're playing "good enough" golf: competent, courteous, and enjoyable to be around. "Good enough" means you can keep pace with the group, find your ball without ext

Work Hard, Swing Harder: The Golf Skill Winning at Work
At Grady Golf, we’ve always believed the game is bigger than the swing. It’s about rhythm, presence, and how you carry yourself between the shots. Lately, however, something interesting has happened: golf has quietly become one of the most effective tools for building professional relationships. And the best part? It works best when you don’t talk business at all. We’ve seen it time and again, deals that start with a handshake on the first tee, not a pitch deck. Conversations

Golf Gear That Gets You Going: Why Equipment Psychology Matters
My friend's wife bought a beautiful ski jacket before she'd ever been down a mountain. Bright colors, perfect fit, technical fabric the works. Her husband rolled his eyes at the expense, but something interesting happened: she couldn't wait to use it. That jacket became her motivation to book lessons, hit the slopes, and actually learn to ski. The gear didn't make her a better skier, but it made her want to become one. This psychology applies perfectly to golf gears. When you

The Truth About Golf Tech: Why Your Swing Matters More Than Your Gear
Modern golf clubs are genuinely impressive pieces of engineering. The materials, manufacturing precision, and design innovations of today's equipment represent real advances over clubs from even a decade ago. Drivers are more forgiving, irons launch higher with more consistent distance, and putters offer better feel and alignment aids. But here's what the marketing doesn't tell you: most year-over-year improvements are marginal at best. That "revolutionary" new driver might g

The Expensive Golf Equipment Trap: Why My Buddy Quit Golf Before He Started
When my buddy Herman and I decided to take up golf together, we were both genuinely excited about learning the game and imagining ourselves hitting perfect drives down pristine fairways. We approached our equipment choices very differently, and the results couldn't have been more telling. I took the economical route, picking up a set of used starter clubs that didn't win any beauty contests. They looked well-worn, had some scratches, and definitely weren't going to impress a
