15:18 "Every stroke I save today, I don't have to make up tomorrow". This interview is filled with great life lessons; thank you gentlemen and I will keep my head up!

[@MarkImmelman]

Appreciate the thorough listen, Charlie! Bill is a legend and it is a treat to sit down with him this week.

[@williambilly3269]

What a decent humble nice guy Bill is.

[@cryptoengineer9930]

Listened to this with a large glass of merlot, it made the merlot taste better. Cheers.

[@richthomann3103]

Awesome info!

Going off script, the one thing I noticed about Mark is that he lets his guest speak freely and finish what they’re trying to say and doesn’t interrupt and try to insert his opinion or finish the subjects sentence. Many interviewers today constantly interrupt the subject before they can answer the question that was asked which is so annoying. So refreshing to see Mark allow his subject to answer his questions uninterrupted so we get to hear all of what they’re trying to say. He genuinely wants to hear his subjects opinion. And it’s always gold when we hear from people we normally don’t hear from. I’m a new Bill Harmon fan.

Absolute Gold. Pearls of wisdom, by such a great teacher. Thank you @MarkImmelman for another wonderful podcast.

[@stevestewart240]

I love the teacher interviews..How about some Chuck Cook if possible..TY

[@MarkImmelman]

Thanks for the rec! I'll see what I can do 😄

[@duPlus3]

Bobby Locke for putting!!

[@jkgarza9410]

Incredible discussion. Loved the 15th club analogy and if you can’t play shut up. If you can play you don’t need to say anything.

[@johnashburn9857]

The symmetry police 😂

[@joeluvs2danceify]

At 11:23 Mark said the most obvious thing (that had been lost on me until now). 'If you had a good third shot you're looking at making a 3 or 4, but a good first shot you'll make fewer 6s or a7s'. For me this is true gold.

[@peterbarnes8941]

This was brilliant, the best hour I've spent sharpening my focus on what is really important in golf in more than 50 years!!! Some of what was said was familiar, but always stated in a way that had new impact. I made nearly as many notes as Mark did. Thank you Bill; thank you Mark.

GOLD

[@tomburns9732]

Great video with all of the insights! Enjoyed it very much. Thank you!

[@golfgreats5527]

Great job Mark love this stuff :) It's so important to learn how to square the face to your intended target no what swing you have, I'm down the road of trying to rebuild my swing and lost currently, it's so hard to keep on the path as with all golfers you need to see instant results. In saying that, how many things should you work on at once and when you go to the course should it just be on automatic no matter what the swing is doing? Thanks again!

[@Woody54321]

11:11 - get better from 100 yards in. Watch the flight of the ball. Don't get so darn technical. The best players all had their own style of swing. 13:17 Hogan's golf course management made a difference in his success.

[@jonchadwick1171]

One thing for sure, I know I could play a whole lot better if I could afford to play a couple of times a week. I truly envy those who are able to play this great game as often as they like.

[@wilhen1]

You're a treasure Bill - this podcast should be required listening for every person who plays golf. Thanks to you and thanks to Mark for conducting such a great interview!

[@stevestewart240]

Hogan,Nicklaus,and Woods all had a uncanny abilty to predict the winning score …they Must have had something in common ..JS.

[@ag358]

Bobby jones said the secret to golf is the ability to turn 3 shots into 2.

[@LagGolfSchool]

30:32 This should be more important than everything else when giving a golf lesson but unfortunately it has been pushed aside.
