Rate ShowGolf Smarter Podcast
Varried and educational. I learn about new people in the golf industry on almost every show. If the guest is an author (or has written a book) I tend to buy it based on the interesting interview. Not a lot on swing mechanics (it is a verbal not visual show), but there are some. This podcast helps with the mental game and delves into course management via talks with course architects. Even shows that I thought I wouldn't enjoy ended up being fascinating. This Podcast is easy to listen to, is fun and imformative. It has inspired me to play better golf. Even if I don't get better (but I have), it gives me the courage and confidence to enjoy the game more, and I do. The host, Fred Greene, has a casual and informal style that makes the interviews sound more like conversations.

Excellent podcast. . .
I am 29 years old and have been golfing for 25 of them. I came upon this podcast recently and it is top notch and appears to be getting stronger over time. Meaningful guests, solid information, great variety (covers all of golf's bases) and the "ear candy" factor is high. Thank you Edwin Watts and Fred!

Golf Smarter
This is a great Podcast. Certainly the best of the golf Podcasts I've heard, and right up there at the top of all Podcasts. Week after week it's filled with interesting conversation and great tips. And it doesn't sound contrived like other Podcasts. Fred and Kenny actually sound like they enjoy talking about golf, and they are just letting us in on the conversation. Give it a listen - it will help your game.

A Welcome New Rub of the Greene
Finally the avid golf fan gets a diverse view of the game from the teachers, players, architects, writers and just plain folk who like to tee it up. Par-fect listening for your "drive" to work or play. Or listen at home when you're just puttering around. Even better, you can win great stuff from Edwin Watts Golf.
Thanks, Freddie (not the BOOM BOOM) Greene

Golf Smarter Podcasts
I greatly enjoy the Golf Smarter Podcasts. Naturally, I can't incorporate every swing tip or mental tip I listen to from all the different guests, but their comments usually give me something to think about. Of course, the tips that make sense to me and I think would fit my game I try out and it has helped me lower my scores. I like to listen to Golf Smarter on my commute to work and it has greatly reduced my road rage quotient!

Great show
Fred is an enthusiastic host and he knows how to interview golf experts. I've listened to just about every one of these shows; it's definitely the best golf podcast out there. If you're into golf architecture and mastering the mental side of the game, I would highly recommend it. Initially the podcast didn't pay much attention to swing technique, but gradually there was plenty of content added from fitness experts and PGA pro's who provide great insight without getting overly technical, which doesn't work that well in an audio format.

Fun and entertaining
I've liked this podcast since I subscribed. It entertains and occasionally teaches. The light hearted commentary is easy to listen to. The tech section comes across as honest reviews of whatever subject they are on. I like it.

Golf Smarter
A great way to keep up to date with golf equipment design, playing tips as well as interviews with golf personalities. Fred asks questions both beginners and advanced players can relate to.

The best golf related PODCAST ever created
This podcast will enlighten players from all levels. Fred Greene does a great job at having guests which range from authors to golf caddies and everyone in between. He asks questions which the common golfer would be interested in asking but don't have the forum. He's the voice for all weekend hacks such as myself. Keep up the good work Fred, and Kenny as pretty great as well. This podcast is a must for anyone interested in improving their golf game or anyone curious about the game.

Wonderful info for all golfers...
What a great podcast! You can't ask for more--a podcast that welcomes ideas and questions while covering everything you can imagine for improving your game. I listen while on my treadmill and then can't wait to get out and put to use all that I learn. I look forward to each new podcast and always enter the contest for the great give-aways. It's great to hear Kenny's picks and information on new products. Just a great and informative podcast all the way around. Thanks Fred!

Through the Greene
Fred Greene has put together a wonderfully useful podcast for golfers. Having watched and read a lot about golf, I could not imagine how anyone could produce an instructional audio golf show. There are a few golf radio shows, but they are just a variation on sports talk radio. This podcast focuses on the mental side of the game, golf architecture and products. It is simply terrific. Don't waste anymore time reading reviews. Give it a listen.

Golf Smarter
Fred Greene, has nailed this podcast genre. Golf Smarter has become a standard component of my golf game. The golf smarter podcast offers timely and useful insights for the amateur golfer of any skill level. I especially enjoy the episodes that include stories from the people that make and sell golf equipment and the episodes which feature tour caddies. I look forward to downloading each weeks podcast.

Golf Smarter
Each podcast is filled tips and insights to help you lower your golf score. The audio quality is excellent and Fred has a fun sense of humor that keeps the podcasts moving along. Kenny provides awesome product knowledge and Edwin Watts Golf web site is great! They are a great sponsor! Golf Smarter is a great name for this podcast because it really make to "think" about your golf game and play "smarter." I subscribe to multiple golf podcasts and this by far is the BEST!

without pretention.
Very nice little podcast filled with great tips on how to improve your game. I especially like that it is designed for the average golfer and is done with great humility. Misery loves company and it's comforting to know that us weekend golfers have plenty of compatriots. The fun part of this podcast is that the content is in interview format with the actual authors of the help books. Plain to see that some people really lean on their editors. To top it off, there is an invite to join a bi-weekly drawing for some great prizes from Edwin Watts golf. Win, Win situation here.

Best Golf Podcast on Itunes!
This show is has such great diversity in dealing with all aspects of golf. At the end of the day, you learn that golf is mostly mental and you must work hard on your game and keep your attitude positive. This show also has great giveways almost weekly, yet I haven't won one yet ;(. Kenny & Fred have great chemistry, keep up the good work guys!

Friends
Fred and Kenny are like old friends except we don't ever get to play a round with them. This
has been the best golf improvement aid I have ever used. My only question is why is there not 10,000 golfers listening to this. I still go back an listen to the first shows from time to time on my way to the course. I don't play as much as I used to and the mental tips from Fred's guest have been the greatest. Kenny gives wonderful unbiased equipment info and I appreciate the Edwin Watts sponsorship.

Fred does a nice job with the interviews and the proudct information has been top notch since Edwin Watts came on board. Coming from the Northeast, it is great to have some quality Golf instruction and content to get me throught the offseason. A must for any fan or student of the game.

I listened to the show for the first time today episode 99 and I have to say I really enjoy the mix of banter and golf stories/knowledge and advise. It is a podcast where the time seems to just pass by while you listen.

Great Delivery
these podcasts are great for everyone from casual players to beginers, hardcore golfers. They talk about everything from club types, to swings, to the mental game. Each episode is interesting, kind of feels like there is a pro giving you pointers from over your shoulder.
