Continuing our series on Ben Hogan's Five Lessons, this week Adam discusses what Hogan refers to as the first part of the golf swing, AKA the backswing. Adam highlights three main takeaways -- pun intended -- in this lesson, including the waggle, the one-piece takeaway, and Hogan's famous "pane of glass" illustration.

This week Adam discusses Ben Hogan's second lesson from "Five Lessons," stance and posture. There are two elements Adam focuses on regarding stance, including Hogan's feet position and how he extends his arms away from his torso to allow his elbows to be as close as possible. Later, Adam shares a few additional tips he's received from past golf lessons related to stance and posture.

This week on the podcast Adam shares his thoughts on why LIV Golf is likely to succeed, and it has nothing to do with the golf being played. Why do players (or regular people) make the choices they make? What does it say about the PGA TOUR, and why do players change their minds about what was once the ultimate goal?

Adam recently re-read Ben Hogan's Five Lessons; an activity he'll do once a year to brush up on fundamentals. In this episode, Adam shares his thoughts on the golf grip according to Hogan, including how it has helped him get his game back on track this season.

The 2022 US Open has come and gone with Matt Fitzpatrick winning on an impressively tough course among an impressively talent leaderboard. Adam dives into what we can expect to talk more about post-US Open, and unfortunately a lot of it will still be LIV Golf. 

Nikki Dunagan and Adam Fonseca cover a LOT of ground in this week's episode as they trade takes on Phil Mickelson's 2022 US Open press conference, the tournament itself, and then perhaps the greatest movie in recent memory. What do we think about Phil's state of mind? Does the actual golf even matter anymore? Can we get more Miles Teller in our lives? We tackle the important questions -- and more -- in this episode.

On a special episode of the GU podcast we welcome on Whit Watson, golf journalist and TV analyst, to discuss day 1 on the upstart LIV Golf Tour. Whit and Adam discuss everything from the drama at press conferences, the controversy around the Saudi-backed league, Whit's take on how event was covered, and much more.

The first week of the LIV Golf Tour season starts on June 9th, and Adam is ready to dive into all the nonsense that has surrounded it so far. The list of players have been released, many of whom say life on the PGA TOUR was "unfair" or "terrible," which makes no sense whatsoever. What should we expect from this ongoing drama in the world of pro golf?

This week on the podcast Adam shares a few reflections from his past week basically living at a golf course while Mrs. GU was out of town.
