Spring has officially arrived in Lynchburg, and it's time to get those clubs out of the garage! In this episode of Locally on the Links, host Rich Roth sits down with Marty Chandler, Director of Golf at London Downs Golf Club.
As the weather warms up, Marty shares essential advice for transitioning from simulator ”screen golf” back to the real-deal dormant Bermuda grass. We dive deep into:
The ”Chip Once” Rule: Why getting on the green is more important than being close to the pin.
Target Acquisition: How a simple leaf or broken tee just two feet in front of your ball can fix your alignment.
Scoring Benchmarks: Practical strategies for breaking 100, 90, or 80 by managing expectations and avoiding the ”hero shot”.
Plus, we get an update on Lynchburg’s own Zach Bauchou on the PGA Tour and discuss whether we’ll see Tiger Woods at Augusta this year.
