MikkelGolf.com Newsletter #1
Join the newsletter
Thank you for signing up for my brand-new newsletter! I’m excited to be a little creative and seek answers to what sets the best apart in professional, amateur, and junior golf. We will crunch the numbers, look to research, and also use anecdotal evidence from time to time. With a background as an NCAA Division 1 golf coach for seven years, I have unique insight into some of these performance arenas and I have tracked a lot of data along the way. As a coach and analyst, my angle is always from the performance- and player development sides. My goal is for you to be left with inspiration and valuable insights you can apply to your own golf journey.
🏆 Spotlight on the Srixon Tour
For the first few weeks, we will delve into some eye-opening insights from the 2023 season on the Srixon Tour. If you're not familiar, this is the highest level of competition for junior golfers in Norway. I had some hypotheses about scoring on the Srixon Tour based on the metrics I've tracked in College Golf, and it turns out, some were confirmed. But the real excitement lies in the unexpected discoveries I've made along the way crunching over 3000 lines of Srixon Tour data.
Further, I’m currently looking into numerous other aspects within performance golf that I intend to report on in this newsletter in the future. My goal is to send one out weekly on Fridays.
🎯 Performance Drills
Below is a link to a performance drills page I have been working on. The page includes some of my favorite drills with high transfer to the golf course. New drills (with or without scoring aspects) will be added throughout the year. Eventually this page and some other resources will be behind a subscriber login - but I would love for as many as possible to have access to start off with. Feel free to give them a shot! You can filter for your name in the drills leaderboards in order to track your progress over time.

I invite you to join me on this journey of exploration and hopefully, discovery. I have tracked a wide variety of things beyond the typically-analyzed golf metrics through my college coach years that I intend to share. Sign up for this newsletter (and share it with a friend) and together, we will uncover the hidden gems that can elevate our understanding and performance in this sport we love.
Have a great week!
