Episode Summary

In this episode of The Golf Intervention, we break down the three elements of the golf swing—time, energy, and geometry. While many golfers are obsessed with geometry and, more recently, speed, we discuss why that’s only part of the equation. We also dive into the history of swing models, teaching theories over the years, and why changing your swing isn’t something to take lightly. If you’ve ever wondered whether you should tweak your mechanics or chase the latest swing trend, this episode is for you.
