What happens when the thing you’ve built your entire identity around suddenly stops being your job?This week, Matt and The Professor sit down with a friend and former PGA Tour player and Korn Ferry Tour winner, Chris Wilson, for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had about professional golf, pressure, performance, and life after competition. What starts as a conversation about Q-School, Northwestern, and surviving on Tour slowly becomes something much deeper: how the elite performers learn to let go, reinvent themselves, and figure out who they are when the score no longer defines them.Along the way, Chris explains why bad weather can free your golf swing, why “be aggressive” is terrible putting advice, how Tour players spiral after missed cuts, and why the best skill he carried from golf into finance had nothing to do with golf at all.What the conversation dives into: Why miserable weather sometimes produces the best golf  The hidden psychological pressure of Tour reshuffles and missed cuts  What winning on the Korn Ferry Tour actually changes - and what it doesn’t  The difference between linear and nonlinear putters  Why Chris says he “never thought about pace” while putting  The challenge of separating your identity from your golf game  What elite golf teaches you about business, communication, and relationships  How learning to “care less” can actually improve performance Connect with our guest💼 https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-wilson-98b112127/Follow The Bag Drop📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebagdrop 🐦 X/Twitter: https://x.com/thebagdropgolf 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheBagDropGolfListen to The Bag Drop🎧 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-bag-drop-untold-stories-in-golf/id1430328006🎧 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2xRWtUBJH8RazdLw14oaGH🎧 Transistor: https://thebagdrop.transistor.fm/Join the NewClub community🌍 Website: https://www.newclub.golf📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/newclubgolf/🐦 X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/newclubgolf📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@newclubgolf💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/newclubSupport our Partners🐝 NewClub: https://www.newclub.golf🏌️ Titleist: https://www.titleist.com🌐 Golf Blueprint: https://www.golfblueprint.com Connect with Matt & The Professor🎙️ Matt Considine — 🐦 X/Twitter: https://x.com/consequential85 | 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/consequence18/ | 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-considine-103bb21/📚 Dr. Kevin Moore ("The Professor") — 🐦 X/Twitter: https://x.com/kevcmoore | 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kevcmoore | 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-moore-177b30b3/Chapters00:00 - Intro07:57 - Chris Wilson joins the show13:08 - Northwestern vs Ohio State17:06 - The jump from college golf to professional golf21:51 - PGA Tour reshuffles and surviving missed cuts31:21 - Winning on the Korn Ferry Tour35:29 - Leaving professional golf behind42:53 - The philosophy of putting49:18 - Why Chris “never thought about pace”What is The Bag Drop?The Bag Drop features weekly stories from the culture, community, and characters shaping golf today.
