Cold winters in Chicago have a way of testing your dedication.
When the fairways disappear under snow and the wind cuts through every layer, most players pack up their clubs and wait for spring. But true competitors donât waitâthey prepare.
This program was born in those long, gray months when my son and I trained anywhere we could: garages, basements, and borrowed gym space. We learned that great golf isnât built under perfect conditionsâitâs built through perseverance, consistency, and love for the game.
These 120 days are about more than golf mechanics. Theyâre about character. About showing up when itâs uncomfortable, about finding progress when nobodyâs watching. If you can master that in the middle of a Chicago winter, you can master anythingâon or off the course.
