Golf Smarter

by Josh Karp

Corrected Mistakes is GolfSmarter's newest interview-driven podcast that takes a deep dive into the history, science, art, and methods of teaching the golf swing. Host Josh Karp—a writer, producer, and 12-handicap golfer—talks with instructors, historians, and scientists about how the swing has evolved, from Young Tom Morris to Tiger Woods. Each episode explores swing philosophies, the impact of technology and architecture, and what we can learn from the best players in the history of the game.

I have listened to over 900 episodes of Golf Smarter That should say everything Fred has interviewed most of the top minds from all over the world in the great game of golf. Outstanding podcast.

I subscribe to several podcasts and GolfSmarter is one of my favorites. Fred is an excellent interviewer and has been able to have great guests discussing a multitude of topics-instruction, equipment, mental game and strategy to name a few . Keep up the good work Fred!

I stumbled upon The Golf Smarter podcast a few months ago. I am self employed and ride a lawn mower for 6-8 hours every day. So I wanted to keep my mind occupied with interesting topics related to golf to help me achieve lowering my handicap. So grateful for all the great topics and folks Fred has interviewed over the years. I particularly appreciate the Golf Smarter Mulligans episodes that revisit previous episodes. Thank you for everything you do to inform golfers of every level. See you in the fairways. Chris Ballard

Buck Fallard · Oct 2024

I came across Golf Smarter about a year and a half ago when I started exploring golf podcasts for my commute. This show was one of the first I added to my rotation, and I really got hooked during the series of interviews with Tony Manzoni. Fred is a fantastic host and approaches each conversation from the listener’s perspective - just another golf addict looking to learn and improve. He asks good questions and provides relatable examples from his own golfing experiences. But the best part of Golf Smarter (and it’s sister show, Golf Smarter Mulligans) are the guests. Fred invites people from all over the golfing world including club pros, fitness trainers, authors, inventors, and so on. And they cover many different opinions including various swing theories and approaches to the game. If you are looking for an entertaining and educational golf podcast that covers a wide variety of the golfing world, I’d recommended Golf Smarter.

The amount of ads is a bit extreme. Just found the podcast and played the first episode. First 6 mins were commercials and after 30 minutes there have been and additional for 3 lengthy ad segments. If you want to keep fast forwarding every few minutes, maybe it’ll be worthwhile for you.
