Steven's range session went terribly - huge divots, grip problems, pure frustration. David uses the Ryder Cup's analytics approach to explain course management: minimize mistakes instead of trying hero shots you can't pull off.

What we discuss:

• Steven's catastrophic range session and why trying harder made it worse
• The "holding an egg" grip philosophy and finding flow state
• Fall golf tip: don't use yellow/red balls when leaves are changing
• How Team Europe "moneyballed" the Ryder Cup with simulation analytics
• Course management = playing defensive, not trying to slam home winners
• Why "if I flush my 6-iron" thinking leads to snowmen on scorecards
• Steven's argument that life is more fun with less risk (and scrolling phones)
• The extreme debate: conservative golf vs. YOLO hero shots
• Sam Ryder's legacy and how enthusiast fools create lasting traditions

Key moments:

• Steven couldn't figure out why he was so bad the entire range session
• David's confession about not being able to hit a chip for weeks
• The ping pong serving analogy that Steven completely rejected
• Steven's philosophy: "I don't regret being careful" (said sarcastically)
• The escalation to "most people just want to scroll phones safely at home"
• Discovery that Sam Ryder died in 1936 and never saw what he created

Bottom line: Course management means playing conservatively and minimizing mistakes. Don't be a hero when you're not qualified - aim for sevens instead of posting eights trying impossible shots.
