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.
