Heads up.

Starting October 11 we will be airing weekly “web-isodes” on The Dan Plan landing page. These will run roughly 3-5 minutes and cover everything from golf lessons to financials and the lifestyle changes necessary when transitioning from 9-5 worker to full-time golfer-in-training.

The goal of these is to shed a bit of light on what it means to make such a leap as the one I am in the middle of. And, I hope that they prove entertaining to watch

There is an intro video up now. If you have time, please check it out.

Thank you and stay tuned for some good stuff!

Dan

That’s exciting! I follow you on RSS, so don’t forget to mention it in your blog when they start appearing!

Dan,
Great work on the intro video! The production value is fantastic.
I just want you to know that I’ve been following your progress closely and am rooting for you. I’m a basketball shooting coach and read your blog every post for a reminder of what it is like to be the player on the road to improvement. You’ve been a great source of inspiration for myself and a number of players that I work with. I would love to stay in contact with you.
All the best!

Great intro video! I’m really looking forward to the weekly web-isodes, that’s a great addition to your blog. I guess the only section missing after the weekly videos is the stats section

Thanks for the inspiration, I’ve now started training more and it is already giving results in improved putting/chipping stats and scores. On Thuesday I played in my university’s golf championships and I finished third in the hcp category.

Have great one!

Hey Alex,

Will do, I’ll give a heads up before they run for the RSS peeps. Thanks for the reminder!

Hi Dave,

That is wonderful that you can use The Dan Plan to inspire your basketball players, awesome! I’m always up for a chat if there are any specifics you would like to know about. Until then, have a great weekend and tahnks for tuning in!

Cheers,
Dan

Hello Micke,

Third in the hcp category is great! Keep up the chipping and putting and you’ll win it next year

Have a great weekend!

Micke,

PS. I’m still building stats for full rounds, but finally have the program that I will eventually use so after a few more rounds there will (finally) be something to put up. Sorry for the lack of stats to date!

Hi Dan:
Way to keep it going. I’m a little curious as to why YouTube is not being used. One thing missing is a video for us mobile users. I will have to check it out later.

Glad to see your stats coming soon!

Hit ‘em straight!

Dan,
Keep up the good work! I’ve been following your story for a while now. Actually, by the time I found The Dan Plan I had already read Talent is Overrated (many times), The Genius in All of Us, The Talent Code, Outliers, and a few of Ericsson’s works. I’ve kind of become obsessed with this concept. I totally believe in what you are doing and think it is great that you are able to give this a shot.

If you don’t mind my asking, how are you funding this?! I see you have a “Donate” link (which I will use), but unfortunately don’t see many that have donated yet.

Anyway, I think this is awesome. You are living my dream. Not necessarily for golf, but just having the opportunity to test the deliberate practice theory on something.

What I wouldn’t give to start “The Splan Plan”!

Best of luck,

Dave Splan

StatMan,

Good point. I like Vimeo because they are a local company, but if embedded Youtube videos can be watched on mobile devices I might have to switch.. thanks for the heads up!
