Special guest Robert Linville joins the podcast. Robert is the founder of Precision Golf School in Greensboro, NC, U.S. and has been teaching the best players in the region for decades. And he and Josh have been working together since 2016.

Robert has worked with elite amateurs, USGA Champions, LPGA and PGA Tour players, and even USGA runner-ups ;)

In this episode, Robert and Josh discuss these topics:

• how to trust the process
• consistency
• acceptance in performance
• the journey of improvement
• overcoming challenges
• self-belief
• managing expectations
• accessing skills under pressure
• balance between caring too much and not caring enough
• finding your 'why' and why that's so important

It's always great to talk with Robert and learn from his wisdom and experience, so I know you'll get a lot out of this episode.
