Coming soon: AI for Golfers
A prompt pack built for golfers: swing fixes, practice plans, course strategy, and more. It started when I used Claude as my golf coach and older golfers I talked to had no idea that was possible.
Subscribers hear about it first.
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The newsletter is free, and you can unsubscribe anytime with one click.
Do I need to be "techy"?
Not at all. If you can send an email, you can do this. We explain every step in plain English and show you exactly what to type.
Which AI do I use?
Our prompts work with free versions of popular assistants like ChatGPT and Claude. We'll show you how to get started with either one.
Is it safe?
We'll teach you good habits, like never sharing passwords, account numbers, or other private details with an AI. AI can make mistakes, so we also show you when to double-check its answers, especially for health or money questions.
