@christophersmithgolf The 2025 Social Media Golf Instruction “D-Bags of the Year” awards are coming. I will give you a hint about 2025’s prestigious winners. 🤡 First, the “look good, sound smart” crowd. These self-anointed experts opt for smooth, fancy terminology and tech talk to impress students - instead of actually helping them improve. 🤡 Next, the failed strip club artists. The genetic lottery winners who decided golf instruction was their next calling, to the detriment of legit teachers & willing students alike… 🤡 Then the method/model teachers -praising & preaching the techniques of their preferred poster child. No personalization. No recognition that each individual is in fact a case study of 1. One size fits ALL, and it’s “my way/preference/bias, or the highway…” Stay tuned…. And keep in mind: 2025’s recipients already know who they are; do you?? #golfcoach #golfinstruction #golfinstructor
