Ep. 114 Pain Free and Dangerous!
Send a text
Andy is back.
After months of landscaping, wrist pain, and limited golf, Episode 114 marks his return to competitive play — and it delivers.
In this episode:
- A pain-free 18 holes (thanks to a simple pre-round tweak)
- A 79 in the first comp round of the year
- No snap hooks
- No doubles
- Increased clubhead speed without extra effort
- A deeper understanding of ground forces and weight transition
Andy shares how studying concepts from Titleist Performance Institute and applying ideas often seen in players like Justin Thomas has reshaped his swing — particularly around pressure shift and using the lead side properly.
The result?
- A 5% jump in clubhead speed
- Multiple flushed irons (including a “three-quarter” 7-iron that went 154m…)
- Two makeable birdie chances late
- A gritty up-and-down on 18 to break 80
It wasn’t perfect. There were sloppy bogeys. Mental lapses. A few “how did that go 181 metres?” moments.
But it feels close.
Really close.
This episode dives into:
- Why pain-free golf is a massive win
- How tension creeps in when a good score is building
- The importance of getting off “the train”
- Why no doubles is a bigger stat than you think
- And why 2026 might be shaping up very nicely
Momentum is building.
The swing is holding up under pressure.
And the snap hook might finally be on notice.
