Tired of tip-chasing and still shooting the same scores? Let’s flip the script. We’re bringing our YouTube instruction back with a tighter focus on concepts that hold up under force plates, launch monitors, and on-course outcomes—no dogma, no magic moves, just the stuff that actually changes ball flight and scores. We also share travel plans so you can hop on the plates with us in person, or work together online with real data.

Here’s the heart of it: better golf starts by matching your unique movement pattern to a delivery that repeats under pressure. Some players don’t move great but deliver the face beautifully; others move like athletes but deliver inconsistency. We talk through how we decide what to change first, why small, deliberate adjustments beat wholesale overhauls, and how to keep your strengths while fixing the right weakness. Short game gets a reality check too—soft, overseeded, grainy conditions can make good players look lost. We break down why planning, margin for error, and low-point control matter more than endless steep-versus-shallow arguments.

Data turns guesswork into progress. With CLIPPd, we spot real trends, shift practice time where it pays, and resist the urge to overcoach. If your approaches are strong but your putting stalls, we rebuild start line and speed with targeted drills. If chipping is lagging, we design reps that force skill, not just motion. Along the way, we celebrate Justin Rose’s wire-to-wire clinic and the pro habits that keep veterans sharp—early reps, relentless curiosity, and recovery routines that let skill show up on demand.

If you’re ready to stop chasing every new swing hack and commit to a clear plan, this one lays out how to do it: define your pattern, tune delivery, test with data, and iterate with patience. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves the grind, and leave a review telling us your current focus—are you working on the cut, the low point, or smarter practice blocks?

Want real gains before spring? We map a no-nonsense path from “ball beater” to better golfer by turning winter practice into a measurable plan. I break down why block practice stalls progress, how to read your ball flight with honesty, and the simple delivery metrics that drive change: neutralizing club path, aligning attack angle, and building skills that hold up when the lie, wind, and pressure shift outdoors.

We get specific about structure. You’ll hear how to benchmark with a launch monitor, validate motion with force plates, and use short, targeted drills that work without a club before they ever touch a ball. I explain the draw–fade on-command test for confirming neutral path, give practical ranges for a mid-iron attack angle, and show how small exaggerations speed learning without creating new problems. We also tackle timelines—why change requires discomfort, how to stage adjustments so delivery matches your new motion, and what to do when a trend line refuses to move.

Stats become your compass. Using Clippd, we focus on comparing you to you, turning three honest rounds into a practice roadmap that prioritizes short game, green reading, and putting speed where needed. I share session templates that mix clubs, decisions, and targets for better transfer, plus maintenance ideas so a new strength doesn’t steal from another part of your game. If you’re ready to stop guessing and start measuring, this is your blueprint to convert winter reps into lower scores when the snow melts.

A week at the 2026 PGA Show can feel like standing in a golf-tech firehose—demos, debates, and a thousand new claims. We cut through the noise with a coach’s eye, sharing what truly matters: tools that measure well, connect cleanly, and turn data into better shots. From presenting alongside leaders in biomechanics to late-night Open Forum exchanges, the theme is clear—measurement is only as valuable as its application.

We break down the biggest moves in integrated systems. Trackman’s markerless 3D inside its platform points toward a unified stack of launch monitor, motion capture, and force plates, helping players see movement and numbers in one place. Foresight’s software overhaul delivers crisper visuals and smarter practice modes that make sim sessions more productive. On the ground-force front, Smart2Move’s companion app could change remote coaching by putting session data in the player’s hands for easy sharing and review.

Short game lovers get real upgrades too. Steven Sweeney’s putting insights—stroke arc and face control—pair with the Genius Ball’s readable metrics on skid, bounce, and roll to make practice measurable and fast to improve. We also reality-check the handle-force sensor space: if graphs don’t reflect expected pressure changes at transition, the model isn’t ready. And yes, spikes are back for a reason—more friction often means better force, stability, and contact. On the club front, drivers are maxed on speed, so the true gains come from fitting, forgiveness, and straighter flight in the new 10K MOI era.

Amid all the tech, we still celebrate the soul of the game—walking, persimmon woods, and the quiet craft of strike and flight. The future won’t replace coaches with AI; it will empower coaches who can translate measurement into motion and motion into ball flight. If you love clear insights, honest takes, and practical ways to train smarter, you’re in the right place.

The TV lights are back on in Hawaii, and we’re riding that surge of energy into a candid gear and tour reality check. Rory McIlroy stepping away from blades says a lot about where performance lives today, and it pushed us to ask the same hard question we ask our players: do you want identity in your bag, or ball flights that hold greens and dodge water? We walk through a practical build—cavity backs in the scoring clubs, hollow bodies up top, slightly softer shafts, and a driver with more loft—to make height easy and misses survivable. The goal is simple: less grind, more fun, better scores.

We also get into wedges, where most golfers quietly lose strokes. Grind matters more than the bounce number on the stamp. If you play in soft turf or fluffy bunkers, a wider sole and smarter heel-toe relief lets the club enter and exit the ground quickly. That’s why K‑style soles have been winning on leaderboards. On firm turf, blending lower bounce with the right relief keeps the leading edge tight and offers versatility from tight lies. Add in higher-launch fairway setups and spin-friendly shafts to fix gapping and raise peak height, and your long-game decisions start working for you instead of against you.

On the tour side, Brooks Koepka’s return highlights the financial realities of pro golf and the rising intensity of the PGA Tour’s schedule. We talk legacy, signature events, pathways, and why team formats could be the key to younger audiences and bigger stories. Meanwhile, take a look around any big-box putter wall: mallets and low-torque designs have won the market, but there’s still room to keep a blade if it truly fits. If you’re ready to trade ego for outcomes this season, this conversation gives you a clear blueprint.

Change sounds inspiring until it asks you to feel awkward, look odd, and swing “worse” before it gets better. We dive into the real reason most golfers stall: chasing outcomes while avoiding the uncomfortable work of reshaping a motor pattern. Instead of miracle tips, we map a practical path that ties movement, club delivery, and ball flight together with measurement, clarity, and grit.

We talk about why grit often beats raw talent and how the “natural” label hides the hours of deliberate practice behind great performances. Then we connect that mindset to golf: launch monitor data reveals your pattern, while force plates or 3D motion capture expose the body motions driving it. With that insight, targeted drills act like training wheels—deliberate constraints that teach a new order of operations. You’ll see early gains in path, face-to-path, and strike quality before your feel catches up, which builds belief and momentum.

We also tackle fake progress. Playing the same course can trim strokes through familiarity without building portable skill. If you want a game that travels, you must rotate discomfort into practice: work on long irons and fairway woods, vary targets and lies, and test the motion at playing speed. Openness and commitment turn this into a sustainable process. A coach can diagnose root causes and design effective drills; only you can do the reps and bring the new pattern to the course under pressure.

Ready to trade comfort for capability? Follow our process: identify one root issue, measure it, train it with smart constraints, and reinforce it until it holds up on the tee, on the fairway, and under a card in your pocket.

New goals are exciting until the scorecard refuses to move. We pull back the curtain on why the distance craze hasn’t slashed averages and show a cleaner path to real improvement: objective tracking, targeted practice, and smarter decisions from tee to green. Instead of chasing every tip, we walk through how to benchmark your game with Clippd, read your trend lines, and translate those insights into simple routines that actually change outcomes.

You’ll hear how small edges compound: rolling more 10–12 footers by reducing sidespin, shaving a foot off average chip proximity, and building a bunker plan for the 20–30 yard shot. We get candid about the limits of strokes gained for amateurs, the hidden cost of “feel,” and why diagnosis beats content when you’re stuck. We also dig into coaching and technology—what good force plate use looks like, the questions to ask before you hire, and how to avoid getting dazzled by tools without a plan.

Gear talk gets real, too. We break down driver head choices, spin and launch windows, and why the wrong low-spin setup can rob carry and accuracy. On the greens, we separate putter trends from fit, explaining when zero torque helps and when toe hang still wins. Then we tie it all together with course strategy: choose layup numbers you love, especially on par fives, and play to your stats instead of your ego.

If you’re ready to trade guesswork for gains, this conversation gives you a blueprint: set process goals, practice with feedback, track progress, and commit long enough to see the needle move.

Think your swing is one good tip away from greatness? We dig into why that chase feels good in the bay and falls apart on the course, then lay out a cleaner way to build durable skills. Michael breaks down the traps DIY golfers face—treating symptoms instead of causes, relying on timing rather than sequencing, and trusting slick marketing over objective data—and shows how small fundamentals create big change.

We start with the real baseline: a neutral club path target between −2 and +2 degrees, what it reveals about your pattern, and how path, face, and angle of attack should relate. From there, we look at the hidden levers that tour players monitor daily but amateurs skip: alignment discipline, grip that stays neutral throughout a round, and posture that stacks the body to create torque without back pain. You’ll learn why standing too far inflates an into‑out path, how moving closer can neutralize it, and why “found it” timing at the range won’t hold for four hours under shifting lies, wind, and stress.

We also separate old wisdom from today’s realities. Pre‑2000 balls and tiny heads rewarded control; modern urethane balls and 460cc drivers reward power with control. That context matters when you lift cues from legends. For those navigating the content firehose, we share practical guardrails: use TrackMan University for vetted education, build sessions with one priority, track trends not hero swings, and vet coaches by results, objectivity, and understanding of anatomy and physics. If lessons burned you before, use our framework to hold coach and player accountable with clear baselines and measurable change.

Ready to stop renting swing changes and finally own your game? We dig into why so many golfers stall out despite new gear and endless tips, and we map a clearer path forward: study your miss patterns, track real data, and train skills that hold up on real lies with real pressure. The goal isn’t perfect positions; it’s predictable outcomes.

We pull back the curtain on golf’s hype cycle and why “buying a game” rarely works. Then we get specific: where to place force in the swing, why stability beats late speed, and how neutral-ish path and face-to-path relationships build a shot shape you can trust. You’ll learn why consistent apex and land angle across the bag matters more than peak seven-iron distance, how to practice variability instead of comfort, and why the best players embrace uncomfortable reps because that’s where the nervous system rewires.

This conversation also tackles the human side of improvement: accountability, useful stats, and the mindset to ride golf’s highs and lows without spiraling. We share practical ways to use tools like Arccos and launch monitors to reveal true carry distances, side tendencies, and gapping issues—sometimes even hidden loft problems. With objective feedback, coaching shifts from entertainment to performance, and your practice starts solving real problems instead of feeding your ego.

If you’re serious about getting better, measure more, guess less, and commit to the unglamorous work that makes your pattern predictable.

Snow on the ground, swing on the mind. We dive into how to practice smart on a launch monitor so your game actually holds up on real turf, in real wind, with real consequences. Instead of chasing viral ball speed and “perfect” numbers, we zero in on what travels: neutral patterns, true carry distances, balanced dispersion, wedge control, and putting speed you can trust.

We start by busting two big myths: that every great swing must live in an in-to-out path and that hitting up with the driver is an automatic win. You’ll hear why many elite players live slightly left of zero and thrive with a consistent fade, and how extreme AoA and closed face-to-path can create low-spin knuckleballs that look long on a screen but won’t stay in a fairway. From there, we build a plan for stability—targeting roughly minus two to plus two degrees of path—and show how to balance left-right misses so uneven lies can bend your shot shape instead of breaking your round.

Next, we make carry king. Learn how to map each club’s carry on good and common misses, why draw vs fade affects carry and rollout, and how to use front-middle-back yardages to pick smarter approach numbers. For scoring, we go deep on wedges: use distance ladders, track peak height, center the strike around groove three to four, and flight shots lower with enough spin to stop in a hop or two. Then we unlock putting with data most golfers ignore: face angle rules start line, side spin can curve putts on “flat” surfaces, and 1.68 mph entry speed keeps more of the cup available and beats the tiny ramp around the hole.

We wrap with a pragmatic blueprint: learn what the metrics mean, choose the few that move your score, play the “pins” strategy to avoid short-siding, and study your misses as much as your pured shots. When the snow melts, the golfers who practiced this way won’t just look good on a monitor—they’ll post better numbers on the card. Enjoy the episode, subscribe for more practical coaching, and share this with a range buddy who’s still chasing total instead of carry.

The swing most golfers try to copy was built for a different ball, a different driver, and a different course. We open the hood on modern golf and explain why the urethane revolution, 460cc “10K” drivers, and longer, lusher setups flipped the problem you’re trying to solve. If balata demanded de-loft and spin control, today’s game rewards height, speed, and tight face control—backed by measurement instead of myth.

We dig into the big pivot points: how TrackMan corrected ball flight laws so you can finally aim your fixes at face and face-to-path, not old path-first dogma; why force plates reveal the real engine of speed and consistency—timed ground reaction forces and a strong lower-body brake; and how proper sequencing lets different-looking swings share the same efficient blueprint. Along the way, we unpack the injury equation: you can only accelerate what you can decelerate. Without braking, those “send it” swings load your wrists and elbows instead of the ground.

This is a practical guide for fitting your motion to modern gear. Expect clear takeaways on launching it higher without losing control, choosing loft that helps carry, and training where changes stick best—away from the range, in the gym and PT space, where patterns and tissues adapt. We also look ahead: records should fall, AI coaching will improve, and the smartest players will blend classic craft with present-day science.
