Golfers—this podcast is a must-listen if you’ve been told to “get your lead shoulder down” or “point your shoulders at the ball.”

This outdated advice might sound like good mechanics… but in reality? It’s one of the most harmful concepts you can follow—and it’s causing hip sway in your backswing.

Mike Granato and Shaun Webb are pulling no punches in this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast. They’re diving deep into one of the most widespread swing myths that’s wrecking thousands of golf swings across the country. The worst part? It’s still being taught—every single day.

We break down the flawed logic behind the myth, how it confuses pressure and weight, why it leads to sway and instability, and what should be happening instead.

This isn’t just another rant—it’s a data-backed, experience-driven takedown of bad instruction, and a roadmap to actually improving your swing.

Hit play, and stop sabotaging your own game.
