  • EP 101: The Break 75 Blueprint

    Ever feel like you’re close to breaking 75, but can’t quite put all the pieces together?

    In this episode, Scott reveals the five non-negotiable elements that separate hopeful ball-strikers from consistent scorers: a reliable pre-shot routine, precise alignment, equipment understanding, the ability to shape the ball both ways, and intentional practice. These aren’t just skills — they are the foundation of learning your tendencies, refining your patterns, and ultimately developing the clarity and control required to perform with ownership and confidence.

    When you build a repeatable routine, you gain control under pressure. When your alignment is precise, you eliminate guesswork. When your equipment matches your movement, your swing works with you, not against you. When you can shape the ball both directions, you gain strategic freedom instead of relying on luck. And when you practice with intent, every rep has purpose and produces progress instead of plateaus.

    Master these five and performance becomes predictable, confident, and repeatable — the true path to Own Your SSWING. You don’t need more grinding time… just the right framework.

  • EP 100: From Oars to Irons: Olympian Nareg Guregian’s Pivot from Rowing to Golf

    From Olympic rower to new golfer, Nareg Guregian knows what it means to chase mastery.

    In this milestone 100th episode of Pivot The Path, we explore the transition from rowing to golf — the rhythm, the mechanics, and how elite athletes approach learning something entirely new.

    Whether you’re an Olympian or an everyday player, this conversation is about movement, mindset and the power of starting again. Nareg takes us through his incredible journey — from the early days of rowing to standing on the world’s biggest stage, to defeating cancer, and now embracing a whole new challenge: mastering the game of golf.

    We dive into what it takes to pivot from world-class athletic precision to beginner curiosity, how movement and discipline translate across arenas, and why improvement never truly stops.

    This milestone 100th episode captures the essence of our mantra: Own Your SSWING — growth, grit, and the relentless pursuit of better.

  • EP 99: The Four Movement Pillars of a Consistent Swing

    This week on Pivot The Path, we circle back to where it all begins — the body. We know the body holds the club, the club hits the ball and so it makes sense to us to start at the beginning. Building on recent episodes about efficiency, connection and athletic preparation, Scott discusses the four movement pillars that create a consistent, powerful golf swing.


    Just like the athletes we’ve highlighted — from Jason Kelce’s stability and control in the NFL to the lower-body power and rotational sequence driving baseball’s World Series hitters — elite performance starts with building the right body for the sport. Golf is no different.


    These four pillars connect movement, mindset and mechanics — the reminder that every great swing starts with how your body moves. Master these, and you’ll find your rhythm, power and confidence on every shot.


    Because before you can Own Your SSWING, you have to Master Your Movement.

  • EP 98: Putting It All Together: Building a Reliable, Efficient Golf Swing

    In this week’s episode, Scott takes a deep dive into what it really means to build a golf swing you can trust — one that’s reliable, efficient and uniquely your own.

    Drawing on listener input and questions, he unpacks how different approaches to learning and improving can be both refreshing and revealing. The discussion explores the “why” behind SSWING’s vision — a truly holistic view of golf that connects the dots between movement, mechanics, mindset, and math.

    At SSWING, every element works together. When you understand how the pieces fit, you don’t just play better — you Own Your SSWING.

  • EP 97: Use It or Lose It — The Physiology Behind Your Golf Game

    What are the parallels between an NFL player and your average golfer? More than you might think. Recently, NFL legend Jason Kelce asked himself a simple question: Could I still complete an NFL workout now that I’m retired? The result was a humbling reminder that even elite athletes lose strength, speed and capability if they stop training for the demands of their sport.

    And the truth is, the same principle applies to you and your golf game. If you want to generate rotational power, control the clubface, maintain mobility and swing consistently, you have to train those physical capabilities with purpose. Your body adapts to what you do most often — stop challenging it, and it stops being ready to perform.

    “Use it or lose it” isn’t just a phrase — it’s physiology. And if you’re serious about improving, staying strong and playing your best golf for years to come, that commitment to consistent movement, strength, and intention is how you truly Own Your SSWING.

  • EP 96: Face First: Mastering the Variables Behind Ball Control

    In this episode, we dive into one of the most important — yet often misunderstood — parts of the game: face strike. From swing path and lie angle to shaft flex, weight distribution and even how your body moves through impact, every small detail plays a role in how the club face meets the ball. And here’s the truth — there’s no single “magic fix.” Great ball control isn’t about one swing thought or one equipment tweak; it’s about understanding how all these elements work together to create consistent, predictable results.

    The key is always to fix the root problem and pay close attention to every variable that influences your clubface. Mastering ball control starts with awareness — knowing how to adjust and refine the fundamentals that matter most. Remember: Tilt. Tuck. Target. Trigger. Each piece of that sequence plays a role in creating solid contact, controlling flight and unlocking precision.


    Whether you’re struggling with inconsistency, fighting a two-way miss or chasing that next level of control, mastering face strike is the foundation for better distance control, shot shaping and scoring. The more you understand and own these variables, the more confident you’ll be — and the less you’ll rely on guesswork at impact.

    We’re excited to introduce the SSWING Shop — your new go-to for lifestyle essentials that keep the game close, even when you’re away from the fairway.

  • EP 95: Mastering Ball Control: Smarter Practice & Realistic Goals

    In this episode, we unpack one of the most important skills in golf: ball control. Mastering your ball flight isn’t about perfection—it’s about setting realistic goals, managing expectations and learning how to practice with purpose. Good process leads to good scoring, and with the help of camera-based simulators, you can see, adjust and refine in real time. This is where golfers learn not just to hit shots, but to Own Your SSWING—taking control, trusting the work and building confidence one session at a time.

    Scott shares practical insights on how smarter practice—not endless reps—can help you shape shots, control your ball flight and ultimately lower your scores. We also discuss how working in a golf simulator, especially on camera-based systems, gives you immediate feedback to understand your swing and fine-tune adjustments.

    Good process leads to good scoring. Tune in to learn how to approach practice with the right mindset, build confidence in your ball control and make steady, sustainable progress in your game.

  • EP 94: Never Out of the Fight: Resilience & Mateship at the Ryder Cup

    This week’s episode dives into the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black—a stage where pride, teamwork, and resilience shine brighter than individual glory. The drama, the pressure, and the unity on display felt reminiscent of the ANZAC spirit: mateship, courage, endurance, and sacrifice for the greater collective. Just as ANZAC embodies the power of individuals coming together for something bigger than themselves, the Ryder Cup shows golf at its most communal, where every shot isn’t just for the player, but for the team, the country, and the history books. 

    And perhaps no moment captured that spirit more than Team USA’s ferocious comeback attempts—a powerful reminder that you are never out of the fight.

  • EP 92: Measuring True Improvement: What Really Counts + Fall Golf’s Big Winners

    In this week’s episode, we dig into one of the most important questions for any golfer: what truly measures improvement? Data is the foundation of progress, and training indoors is essential for uncovering the core of your improvement journey. Camera-measured feedback remains the gold standard—giving golfers the ability to track consistency, ball flight control, and the real indicators that your game is moving forward. We also break down the standout performances from fall golf’s biggest stages this past weekend.

    At SSWING, we rely on Uneekor’s ceiling-mounted camera system for unmatched precision - face angle and path measured precisely. For golfers who want to take control of their improvement journey at home, the Uneekor Eye Mini delivers a powerful, portable option that whilst not as clinically precise as the ceiling system - enables golfers to gain understanding of Path precision and creating a solid understanding of inferred face data. Remember: tech is only as good as the golfer using it—another part of the improvement journey that can help you truly Own Your SSWING.
