To the Dinks, to everyone who tapped in from day one, to those who started listening this morning, to those we lost along the way, thank you from the bottom of our hearts and butts. We love you. The Shrinks take some time to reflect on the road to 100, conduct a “how well do I know you” exercise, and look ahead to how Group Golf Therapy plans to change…

    In this session: Connor’s new toxic trait, The Newlywed Game, what’s next.

  • Maddi MacClurg is an Assistant Editor at Golf Digest, who contributes to the publication’s instruction section — we identify Maddi’s dad, a lifelong golf swing tinkerer, as her direct target reader. Maddi shares that her on-course persona as a junior golfer wasn't always the kindest to herself; something many golfers continue to struggle with. And while she's learned more self-facing compassion, she still holds space for an emotional labyrinth called The B*tch Zone. Join us, friends.

    In this session: Junkyard Maddi, Kick Push, Delulus and Menty-Bs.

As someone who's business is, well, them, the boundaries between being on and being off can get blurry.

  • Dr. Joe Parent published Zen Golf in 2002, a book that is packed with East-meets-West philosophy of how to master the mental game in golf. The book was instantly endorsed by two of Dr. Joe’s students, Vijay Singh and Christie Kerr, who each became the number 1 ranked golfer in the world, and was a definitive guide for golfers at every level. Dr. Joe is a pioneer in the mental game conversation, and has since inspired work by many coaches to follow. What’s more, his gentle, calming spirit is infectious, and Bradford and Connor each leave this session having learned a bit more about their own sensory proclivities. In this session: ageism, identifying your senses, BMW golf.

After years of struggling with his mental health and seeking intensive treatment, Matt and his therapist have now launched the Preserve Foundation, a comprehensive mental health clinic offering funding to individuals in need of treatment.

Now, Matt is committed to providing support not only to golfers, but to everyone who needs it.

  • You know him as Jamie Tartt, you love him as Phil Dunster. Phil is an actor from Northampton, England, who joins the Group Golf Therapy couch from the city of Bristol, where his drama school alma mater is located. Phil is a new golfer, and uses sport as a means of healthy escape and connecting more deeply with friends. The Shrinks are *jazzed* to follow Phil’s golf journey, and were touched by his willingness to talk about the mental health of it all — particularly, how to find self-worth and identity when you don’t have work to fall back on.

    ALSO: This special session of Group Golf Therapy is brought to you by our dear friends at Movember. Throughout the month of November, GGT will be raising funds to support men’s physical and mental access.

  • When Ryan Barath was 13, he saw an interview where Phil Mickelson described a modulation he made to his 60-degree wedge, to make it better fit the golf course he was competing at that week. Ryan’s jaw hit the floor: “you can tinker with golf clubs?!” That immediately inspired a career path as a golf club fitter, builder, and writer focused on the many intricacies of golf equipment. Golf wasn’t always a constant for Ryan, though — one afternoon at his local muni, he decided to walk off the course. Now that he’s back, he’s engaging with the game on a deeper, more spiritual and emotionally vulnerable level.

    In this session: being buried with a 5 iron, the trip to St Andrews.

  • Pat Corcoran shone bright early. As the manager of Chance the Rapper, Pat saw meteoric success in defining the cultural relevance of independent music. Now, Pat reflects on his twenties through the lens of his Higher Self — how his anxiety limited his ability to process his emotions. He has since shifted focus to managing an independent wine label, No Fine Print, and taking to the golf course to find moments of peace.

    In this session: reactions, re-parenting the window-front dog, emotional-support nicotine.

  • Bradford, Connor, and Drew met Alex Fourie at the 2023 US Adaptive Open at Pinehurst, and were instantly struck by his attitude, his composure, his outlook. At the age of seven, Alex was adopted from Ukraine and relocated to the US. On day 1 in America, he fished — on day 2, he golfed. Golf became a salve, always there with the sun poking through the trees. Now, along with competing in tournaments around the world, Alex and his foundation, Single Hand Golf, are giving golf to children with adaptive needs and raising funds for orphans in Ukraine.

    Visit singlehandgolf.com to join Alex and his team’s mission of getting golf in the lives of children with adaptive needs.

  • You may not have heard his name, you may not have seen his face, but you know his work. A year ago, Chris Hovsepian left his job in the music industry, where he worked with artists whose names and faces you are certainly familiar with. He had a weird idea — weird is good. The mission: create a cartoon world in which an anthropomorphic golf ball, Jain, shows us how golf should be: fun, diverse, interesting. Jain has become a mascot for golf, shelling out pithy, colorful expressions that every golfer can relate to. Chris has big visions for what Jain can become, and the Shrinks hear it all, while learning more about what inspired golf’s new favorite character.

    In this session: CAMP JAIN, embodying the suck, Dad.

  • Michael Block is Head Golf Professional at Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club, in Mission Viejo, California. In May, 2023, Michael lit the golf world on fire by finishing tied for 15th at the PGA Championship at Oak Hill. It was a storybook week for the 47-year-old: he was surrounded by media, he played his final round with Rory McIlroy, and made a hole-in-one on the 15th hole on Sunday. His PGA Championship success flooded him with PGA Tour sponsor’s exemptions, endorsement deals, private plane rides to events around the world. Despite being three months removed from his historic week, Michael still can't quite wrap his head around what happened, and the subsequent fame he's experienced — that will take time. Naturally, the Shrinks pressed Michael to unpack the quiet moments; what it all feels like when the dust finally settles.

    In this session: overnight success, making the hole look bigger, missing a tee time.
