About this listen
What really separates a scratch golfer from the rest?
In this episode of the Your Golf Podcast, Tom Irwin and PGA Professional Jack Backhouse break down the habits, decisions, and mental approaches that low handicappers use to consistently shoot lower scores and why it’s not what most club golfers think.
From smarter course management and knowing your numbers, to eliminating double bogeys and embracing the “good miss”, this episode focuses on the real difference-maker: golf IQ. As the guys explain, it’s not about hitting it further or flushing it every time, it’s about making better decisions, handling bad shots, and staying in control of your scorecard.
They also dive into:
- Why scratch golfers prioritise position over perfection
- The importance of understanding your distances and playing realistically
- How elite players manage mistakes and avoid big numbers
- The mindset shift that turns missed greens into scoring opportunities
If you’re stuck between handicaps and feel like you’re close to your potential, this episode will show you where those last few shots are really going.
