You have probably suspected for some time that there is a secret to golf that the professionals know and you don't. You are partially correct. There is a secret, but not all of the professionals know it. However, the professionals who are consistently at the top of the leader board do. Once you learn the secret, and more importantly how to apply it, you will enjoy every round of golf you play for the rest of your life, whether you are having your career round or a really bad day. Also you will very likely take 5-20 strokes off your average score depending on whether you are now shooting in the 90's or 110's.

Q. How can you learn the secret?

A. By reading the Colonel Bogey™ Lessons and Blogs.

Colonel Bogey, the mythical 19th century golfer, who scored in the mid-80's, has returned to reveal the secret to golf and to tell you how to apply the secret to your game.

The Colonel Bogey™ Way has proven successful at improving golfers' scores and enjoyment of the game for over 25 years. You will learn the Colonel Bogey Way through the Colonel's six written lessons and through commentary and analysis on the Colonel's Blog Page. There is no cost. You have nothing to lose, but needless strokes.

Does the USGA Discriminate in Favor of Tiger?
How Tiger Does It
Full Story
Colonel's Blog Index

A couple of years ago Phil Mickelson clearly changed his approach to course management and it won him three Majors. It appeared that Phil had taken Johnny Miller’s advice and “learned the value of a par.” Then Phil reverted to his old style of play (always aggressive, often dumb) but since he would not admit that he had changed anything he appeared doomed to many more close finishes as at Winged Foot. Phil did not really lose the 2006 U.S. Open on the 72nd hole. Had he been playing smart on the previous 71 holes he would have been leading by several strokes going into the 72nd. Now Phil has turned to Butch Hamon and the payoff has been almost immediate. Frankly the Colonel does not believe that Butch has limited his advice to getting more control off the tee with a shorter backswing as important as that is. Butch has Phil playing smarter and Cololnel Bogey believes that if Phil does not continue to play smart Butch will abandon Phil. Do you think that Phil is capable of playing smart over the long run??
