In his newsletter, Peter Coy discusses how strategies that improve golf performance can be applied to other areas of life, such as personal finances. He highlights insights from Mark Broadie, a golf strategy expert and Columbia Business School professor, who emphasizes the importance of consistency and skill over luck. Broadie's "strokes gained" metric, detailed in his book "Every Shot Counts," evaluates a golfer's performance by comparing each shot against the average, providing a comprehensive measure of where improvements are needed. This approach, akin to financial metrics like alpha, helps identify the most impactful areas for improvement. Coy explains that focusing on what truly matters and avoiding common mistakes is key. For instance, golfers should aim for safer zones rather than riskier, more challenging shots. This strategic mindset can be applied to personal finance and investing, where consistency and skill are more reliable than luck. The article also references Joseph Peta's book "Moneyball for the Money Set," which draws parallels between sports analytics and investment performance, stressing the importance of repeatable skills. In essence, whether in golf or life, mastering consistent strategies and honing skills tend to prevail over sheer luck in the long run.

We often find that golf lends itself as an apt analogy for family businesses.

PGA of America plain and simple, you must figure out a way to get more of the profits from the PGA Championship and Ryder Cup directly into the hands of PGA of America Members. Stop with taking care of PGA of America Officials, Administrators and Staff like royalty. Stop taking care of financially healthy amateurs by conducting events for them with PGA of America Members money. (If you must conduct amateur events pair PGA of America Members with each amateur or each foursome or each team.) Stop using PGA of America Members money for programs that are already provided by other companies. Many professions do not educate their professionals. Why does the PGA of America feel the need to educate their professionals. Provide certification tests and that's it. The benefits are multiple and obvious. Many PGA of America Members live paycheck to paycheck. It's time to put them first by giving them direct financial support.

Municipal courses are an absolutely integral part of golf's grassroots, providing opportunities to those who perhaps cannot afford the fees demanded by private members’ clubs or who want to learn to play in a more relaxed, less intimidating environment. They may not make it onto many ‘bucket lists’. They certainly won’t ever host The Open. But that’s not their purpose. Their entire reason for being is far more important than any of that. Take them away and you make golf inaccessible to a significant proportion of the population. You risk making the game everything that so many are trying hard to prevent it from becoming: the exclusive preserve of those with ‘means’. For any country, that would be terrible. But for Scotland, the 'Home of Golf', it would be utterly shameful. At bunkered, we passionately believe golf is a sport for all and I am grateful we have a platform to advocate for all that is great about it - particularly the less 'fashionable' parts; the parts that are under-appreciated and misunderstood. It has been great to have had the opportunity to represent these views through other outlets this week, including the Scottish Daily Mail - who invited me to write an op-ed on the issue - and BBC Radio Scotland. It's working, too. We learned yesterday that the closure-threatened Hollandbush has been given a reprieve by its council, whilst more than 5,000 people - including footballer John McGinn and top caddie Craig Connelly - have signed a petition calling for Dalmuir to be spared, too. Along with the two courses at Caird Park in Dundee, it will discover its fate in the coming weeks but Labour and SNP representatives from West Dunbartonshire Council have both indicated to me this evening that they will be voting against any proposal to close or reduce the course. At a time when golf is arguably more popular than ever, it's vital that we keep it accessible to all, and munis are a key part of that. Onwards 💪🏽

🏌️♂️⛳️ Making a 19ft Eagle Putt and Your Lasting Legacy 🏌️♀️📜 Watch every shot by Nate Lashley on PGA TourCast as he tees off T28 at 11:22 am pst today: https://lnkd.in/gReXXn-v Imagine standing on the green, 19 feet away from the hole. You take a deep breath, focus, and with a smooth stroke, you sink an incredible eagle putt. The crowd cheers, and you feel a sense of accomplishment and pride. That moment of triumph is not just about skill; it's about preparation, strategy, and execution. Now, think about your legacy. Just like that eagle putt, creating a proper estate plan requires careful planning, strategic thinking, and precise execution. It's about ensuring that your loved ones are taken care of and that your hard-earned assets are protected and passed on efficiently. Here’s how estate planning is like making that perfect putt: Preparation: Just as you practice your putting skills, you need to prepare your estate plan. This involves understanding your assets, liabilities, and the needs of your family. Strategy: In golf, you read the green and plan your shot. In estate planning, you consider the best ways to minimize tax liabilities and maximize the benefits for your heirs. This might include setting up trusts, designating beneficiaries, and planning for potential tax implications. Execution: The final stroke in golf is akin to executing your estate plan. This means drafting the necessary documents, such as wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, and ensuring they are legally sound and up-to-date. Legacy: Just as sinking that eagle putt leaves a lasting impression, a well-crafted estate plan leaves a lasting legacy. It ensures that your family is taken care of, your wishes are honored, and your assets are distributed according to your plan, all while minimizing their tax burden. By taking the time to prepare, strategize, and execute a comprehensive estate plan, you can achieve the same sense of accomplishment and pride as sinking that 19-foot eagle putt. Your family will thank you for the foresight and care you put into securing their future. Let’s make sure your legacy is as impressive as that perfect putt. 🏌️♂️⛳️📜 #Farther #TeamFarther #PGATour #EstatePlanning #Legacy #FinancialPlanning #Golf #TaxPlanning #FamilyFirst #LeaveALegacy Feel free to share your thoughts and experiences in the comments below! 👇
