Back to EpisodesA great talk with Troy Grant of the Troy Grant Golf Academy
Description
Welcome to Flaghunters ! Today, we're fortunate enough to have Troy Grant on the Podcast ! Troy hails from Long Beach, California and his academy is at the Recreation Park 18 Golf Course also in Long Beach. Troy also teaches in Las Vegas and will work alongside Butch Harmon at his school a few times a year.
I was introduced to Troy by one of his students, Mia Hamm. Mia had asked me to caddy for her in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am. When Mia got invited to play, she reached out to me to caddy for her and in the few months of preparation for the Tourney, she put me in touch with Troy. For a couple of months, Mia, Troy and I were in lock-step in getting Mia prepped and ready to roll in her first AT&T. Troy and I became fast friends and thankfully, we share the same views and thoughts on the game and the swing motion. The interaction was seamless and off we went.
Troy has had numerous athletes come to him for instruction. He has a great way of explaining the process and to also enjoy the process and curb expectations that athletes have when they take up the game of Golf. Golf as you all know, can be pretty hard and extremely frustrating, especially to those who have mastered another sport. Good golf requires that right attention in the right places, no matter what your background is. Troy does a fantastic job of explaining that and helping people get better and enjoy the process !
I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and I highly recommend anyone to go and see Troy. I promise you'll get better !
