S12, Ep 54 Part 1: Brian Jacobs on The Lessons That Change Careers Plus Connor Lewis and the Wanamaker You Could Own & The GOAT Debate Gets Real...

On this episode of Next on the Tee, I'm joined by four outstanding guests who bring game-changing perspective from three very different corners of golf.

First, top New York instructor and a wonderful human being, Brian Jacobs returns to talk about his move from an elite Florida club back to Rochester, the lessons he learned, and the key questions every PGA Professional — or anyone considering a new job — should ask before saying yes. I also talk with him about the positive impact he’s made on players’ lives, and he shares the details about his upcoming trip to Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill, which anyone is free to join in on.

Next, Connor Lewis, Founder of the Society of Golf Historians and the new Antiquity Golf Company, makes an electric debut. Connor dives into the treasures of golf history, dives deep into the GOAT debate (Snead, Hogan, Jack, Tiger, Trevino, Bobby Locke), why he'd pick Lee Trevino to face anyone 1 on 1, and how the PGA Tour has copied almost everything from LIV short of the shotgun starts.

Then be sure to come back for Part 2, because the doctors are in. The Confidence Doctor Dr. Bob Winters returns with updates on his students’ successes, the meaning of “social loafing” in golf, his thoughts on the Tour’s direction, and a key reminder for competitive players: When doubt creeps in, believe you belong out there.

He's followed by Doc Merrill, Head Golf Coach at the University of Maine at Augusta. He's developed a lot of great young players. You're going to really enjoy his stories and insights.

Thank you as always for pressing play and being part of this week’s show.
