#36 - Richie Hunt - Golf Analytics

Author: Mike Carroll October 12, 2022 Duration: 56:07

In this episode I am joined by Golf Analytics Expert Richie Hunt. Richie works with a number of PGA TOUR players by going deep on their statistics and identifying areas of possible improvement. He tells us about the types of things he looks into, what parts of the game are commonly over and under valued, and some things amateurs can think about in regards to their game.

It’s really interesting to get an insight into some of the finer details that Richie studies, and learn from his findings.

I hope you enjoy the podcast and please let me know if you have any feedback.
