Hi folks… welcome in to this bonus edition of Next on the Tee—where golf legends live and your game gets better.

This week, I’m joined by two incredible guests from different sides of the game.

First, Hall of Fame instructor Jim McLean shares insights from his legendary career, including his recent induction into the PGA of America Hall of Fame, stories from his college days at the University of Houston where he teamed with other golf legends and great friend of the show John Mahaffey, plus Bruce Lietzke, Bobby Watkins, Bill Rodgers, and Tom Jenkins to dominate and win the 1970 National Championship. He writes all about it in his new book, "The Houston Dynasty, Tales From College Golf's Greatest Team," which is available now on Amazon.com. From there, I get his take on technology vs. feel in modern golf instruction, we dive into his work developing players around the world, like James Nicholas, who recently won on the Korn Ferry Tour, and what it was like opening his golf school in South Korea.

Then, golf course designer Michael Riley joins me to talk about building world-class courses with the Nicklaus Design team, his award-winning work at Reunion Golf Club, and how great courses are created from vision to reality. You’ll also hear stories about working with Jack Nicklaus, taking long plane rides on Air Bear with him, and the competitive spirit of the “Big 3” in course design. From there, we get into the work he's doing designing backyard putting greens for Southwest Greens. Ever dreamed of having a putting green in your backyard? I know I have. Michael can make that dream come true...

If you’re looking for golf tips, instruction insights, course design secrets, and great golf stories, this episode has it all.

On this episode of Next on the Tee, I’m joined by PGA Tour legend John Cook and Arnie’s Wellness Founder Garrett Perdue for a powerful mix of golf tips, PGA Tour insights, and golf health advice.

John Cook shares a great new device that he and Bob Papa came up with that will help you with a quick warm-up routine for when you’re short on time, plus simple keys to stay on plane, square the clubface, and hit the ball straighter and farther. It can also help golfers over 50 looking to improve flexibility and shoulder turn. Cookie and I also dive into The Players Championship, whether it should be the “5th major,” and his unforgettable experiences at The Masters, including the Crow’s Nest and the time that officials at Augusta National chased Ken Venturi off the course for walking with him.

Then, Garrett Perdue joins me to talk about Arnie’s Wellness, a line of natural, organic skincare and sun protection products inspired by Arnold Palmer. If you’re tired of chemical-heavy products, Garrett shares a better way to protect your skin on the course while supporting the Arnie & Winnie Palmer Foundation off it.

On this episode of Next on the Tee, where golf legends live and your game gets better, I’ve got another great lineup to help you play better and think smarter on the course.

Leading things off is 2000 LPGA Teacher of the Year and Teaching & Club Professional Hall of Fame instructor Nancy Quarcelino. Nancy shares her thoughts on the LPGA’s TV challenges, what advice she’d give to Commissioner Craig Kessler, and insights on this year’s Solheim Cup. From there, she delivers outstanding golf instruction—covering proper setup, how to practice when time is limited, and the common mistakes mid- to high-handicappers make.

Next, The Confidence Doctor, Dr. Bob Winters, returns with a powerful mental game lesson. This month, he breaks down why saying “I must” after a bad hole leads to pressing, poor decisions, and big numbers—and what to do instead to stay composed, confident, and in control.

We wrap things up with Miura Golf’s North American Sales Manager, Blake Smith. A Master Club Fitter, Blake explains why getting properly fit is essential, then takes us inside Miura’s legendary craftsmanship, where every iron is individually forged and inspected. Plus, we dive into which of their irons and wedges is right for you. Ee hear about their new PI-402 irons and why even elite players trust Miura without endorsement deals.

If you’re looking for golf tips, golf instruction, mental game strategies, and equipment insights, this episode has you covered.
