In this episode of the Golf Beneath the Surface Podcast, the boys talk about Chase's trip to caddie for one of his players at LPGA Q School. The conversation weaves through the difficulties of Q School, handling different weather conditions, dealing with the future uncertainty that comes from an event like Q School, and how to refocus or reset when dealing with the highest levels of stress, nerves, and anxiety. Enjoy!

A little change of pace for episode 33 of the podcast as Chase and Raymond sit down with a group of 4 instructors named The Codebreakers. This group of highly esteemed coaches is made up of Garrett Chaussard, Rob Failes, Mark Grace, and Sean Kennedy. All top instructors in the country, they have been helping players of all skill levels for years. They are hosting a golf retreat in South Carolina in February where Dr. Raymond will be one of the guest speakers. The pod touches on the definition of skill, how big of a role do the head and heart play into performance, and bridging the gap between the mechanical, physiological and physiological parts of the game.

A little more about the Codebreakers:

Codebreakers is the name that naturally came to the surface after many years of helping each other with clients. We set up a peer review system through an app, discussed possible approaches with each other’s clients, which naturally advanced into discussing theory. We were realizing the benefits of open minded discussion and thought to expand this idea by asking respected professors to come to our location and invite the top growth minded professionals to join us. So the Codebreakers brand is the precipitate of curiosity from Breaking Codes.

The conversation takes a deep dive into the art and science of club fitting, the future of club fitting, how to find a great club fitter, indoor vs outdoor fittings, and much much more!

About Ian Fraser:

Ian has been working in the golf industry for 18 years, having turned professional shortly after leaving High School. Ian starting his fitting career with TaylorMade Europe. During his 8 years there — working in various Club Fitting roles — Ian helped golfers from all walks of life, from PGA Tour Players to complete beginners picking up a club for the first time.

With this vision of becoming the industry leading experts in club fitting and building, Ian and his team opened their first store in Burlington Ontario. Shortly following that came the opening of the company’s flagship store in the northeast part of Toronto.
