Fix Your Golf Game Without Wrecking Your Body w/ Coach John Eisentrout
What if your slice, topped shots, or “my back is smoked after 9 holes” problem isn’t just your swing… but how your body moves?
In this episode of From Pain to Play, Dr. Troy Dreiling sits down with his golf coach John Eisentrout (Westside, Vancouver WA) to talk about the real reasons most golfers hurt — and why fixing your body mechanics is the fastest way to better scores.
They break down the most common physical issues John sees (hips, shoulders, ankles, wrists), how those limitations show up in the swing, and simple principles any golfer can use to stay out of pain and enjoy the game longer.
You’ll also hear how Troy has used John’s coaching and tech (high-speed video + putting analysis) to fix his own game and why “boring” short-game practice is actually the biggest on-course cheat code.
IN THIS EPISODE:
How hip mobility (or lack of it) quietly wrecks your lower back
Why ankles, knees and hips matter more than “swinging harder”
Shoulder and wrist limitations that make a full backswing almost impossible
Why most amateurs chase driver swing speed instead of learning to chip and putt
How John balances what golfers want (bombing driver) with what they need (contact + consistency)
The role of good equipment and proper putter fitting in saving strokes
Why starting “next to the hole” is the fastest way to lower scores
How John works around real-life seasons (like new babies, work, injuries) with his players
If you love golf, want to keep playing pain-free, or you’re finally ready to stop losing a dozen balls every round, this episode will give you simple, practical ideas you can use on the range and the course right away.
