Junior Golfers Having a Burning Desire Towards Golf - a podcast by Travis Howser, PGA

Does your junior golfer have the burning desire to play the game? If not how to do help get them there? If they have the burning desire for the game now, how can you help maintain that desire so that it doesn't burn out? 

In this episode we have PGA Master Professional Dave Malone coming back on the podcast to discuss this topic which he brought to me attention. I think it is easy to see if a junior has interest or no interest but how deep is it? In this episode we are going to discuss all these things and share some stories from our experience! 

Discussion:

• (2:10) The difference between a mild desire and burning desire


• (4:00) Why the gauge of desire may not be so accurate coming from parents


• (11:15) How parents can help their children go from mild desire to burning desire


• (26:04) Why over teaching juniors can be a problem


• (30:21) Operation 36 Developmental Program
