This might be the most misunderstood concept in the golf swing… and it's costing golfers more than they realize.In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb break down one of the most commonly botched elements in the modern golf swing: shaft lean at impact.Golfers everywhere are obsessed with achieving that “tour-level look” — hands forward, clubface compressing the ball — but most are chasing a pose, not a position rooted in proper movement and mechanics. And the results? Inconsistent ball striking, weak compression, and frustration on the course.Mike and Shaun dive into:Why holding lag is ruining your swingThe truth about wrist angles and body positioningHow “posing impact” is hurting your real performanceWhy even elite players misunderstand what shaft lean actually isThe role of swing sequence and movement patterns in achieving natural compressionThis episode is for every player who's chased compression, tried to "hold the angle," or been told their hands need to be way forward at impact.

(00:01) Aging Golfers and Hybrids This chapter explores the unique challenges and adjustments that come with playing golf as we age. We highlight the irony that as we have more time to enjoy golf, our physical capabilities often diminish, leading to the need for different strategies and equipment choices. The discussion includes adapting to the realities of aging, such as reduced clubhead speed and the benefits of incorporating more hybrids into our golf bags. We also share anecdotes and insights on how many golfers overestimate their current abilities based on past performances, which can lead to on-course frustration. The goal is to embrace these changes and continue to enjoy the game, potentially even striving to shoot our age in the future. (12:28) Techniques for Penetrating Bunker Shots This chapter explores the transformative journey of four elderly women learning to play golf more effectively. Initially, they struggled with common techniques that weren't suitable for their physical abilities, resulting in a lack of control and unsuccessful shots. We discuss how adjusting their grip and stance, specifically by hinging their wrists and standing the club vertically, helped them gain better control and achieve greater clubhead speed. By positioning the ball at the bottom of their divot and making a regular swing, they could easily navigate the sand and clear obstacles, ultimately improving their game. This approach underscores the importance of adapting techniques to individual needs, especially when physical strength is a limiting factor. (21:17) Improving Golf Swing for Seniors This chapter explores the nuances of grip pressure and balance in golf, especially for older players seeking to maintain or increase their swing speed. We discuss the common misconception that slowing down can lead to better control, emphasizing instead the importance of maintaining balance and grip control to generate more efficient power. Highlighting the challenges of translating force into relatable terms, we examine how changes in stance, grip, and posture can aid in achieving a faster and more balanced swing. The focus is on finding the right grip pressure that allows for control without sacrificing mobility, enabling seniors to optimize their swing for better distance and ball speed. (34:20) Improving Golf Swing Without Tech This chapter explores adjustments to make in your golf game as you age, focusing primarily on increasing swing speed without relying on high-tech equipment. We discuss using an alignment stick to identify the loudest point in your swing, indicating where the club is moving fastest, and how shifting that point can lead to speed gains. Techniques like turning your chest toward the target and enhancing wrist action are highlighted. While we recognize the value of launch monitors, we also acknowledge that not all instructors use them due to their cost. We suggest a simple, cost-effective training tool involving a rope and a Nerf ball to help improve swing speed, emphasizing that these low-tech solutions can be surprisingly effective in enhancing your game. (44:04) Golf Course Length Strategy for Seniors This chapter explores how to determine the appropriate course length by multiplying the distance you hit with a five iron by 36, offering a practical approach to tailor your game. We also share our excitement for the upcoming 52 weeks of shows, encouraging listeners to tune in regularly or catch up on past episodes at thoseweekendgolfguys.com. Reflecting on our journey over the past 11 years, we express gratitude for the audience's support and provide a reminder to follow Jeff's advice for improving your golf experience, particularly as you age.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 507 - Sub70 Golf's Rise: Custom Clubs, DTC Innovation & What Golfers Really Need Sub70 Golf has become one of the most talked-about direct-to-consumer brands in the golf equipment space—and this episode of Fore Golfers Network breaks down exactly why. In this conversation with Host Bill Hobson, Sub70 Golf CEO Jason Hiland shares key insights behind the founding and growth of Sub70 Golf, which launched in 2015 after the successful sale of Diamond Tour Golf. Built on experience, not guesswork, Sub70 entered the market with a clear focus on custom-built golf clubs, authentic branding, and elite-level customer service, all produced in Sycamore, Illinois. Key highlights from the episode include: Why the direct-to-consumer model works in golf when customization and trust are prioritized How Sub70 uses expert interpretation of club specs, not just raw data, to fit golfers properly The difference between what tour professionals demand (trajectory control and a consistent "window") versus what amateur golfers actually need (playability and confidence) How Sub70 initially gained traction through irons and wedges—and why the driver category is now rapidly growing The role of social media, customer feedback, and industry awards in building credibility without traditional OEM marketing How Sub70 has evolved its product lines, branding, and service model since launch The discussion also looks ahead, with plans for future collaboration focused on testing, education, and transparent evaluation of Sub70 equipment—bridging the gap between technical performance and real-world playability. This episode is a must-listen for golfers interested in custom club fitting, equipment innovation, and understanding how modern golf brands are built outside the traditional OEM system. ---------------- Subscribe to the FGN Podcast Watch FGN videos on YouTube Check out our other sports pod: Church Pew Sports TEXT or CALL (989) 272-2383 to share your thoughts, comments, suggestions, and questions

Use a simple reflection loop — ask: What went well? What did I learn? What will I do better next time? Make reflection easy — choose the journaling format with the least friction so you'll actually do it. Think in systems — pursuing greatness without considering second- and third-order effects creates avoidable problems. Focus on leading indicators — control your routines, effort, and communication; results follow later. Upgrade your questions — better questions lead to better self-talk, better focus, and better performance. Resilience = reduced F.I.D. — decrease the frequency, intensity, and duration of your emotional blowups, not eliminate them. Key Quotes: We don't just learn from losing—we also learn from winning. Success leaves clues if you're willing to go back and study it. Create a feedback loop: What did I do well? What did I learn? What's one thing I'll do better next time? Ask it every time, win or lose. The weakest pen is stronger than the strongest memory. You're always writing for your future self. Your pursuit of excellence has second- and third-order effects. If you don't think in systems, you'll chase greatness while unintentionally burning down your health or relationships. If you want better answers, ask better questions. Your brain is like a search engine—it will fill in whatever prompt you give it. Negative thoughts are mental rumble strips. They're not proof you lack confidence—they're signals you're losing focus, so gently guide yourself back into the lane. Progress isn't never hitting the red; it's hitting it less often, less intensely, and for less time—and then learning from every episode.

Welcome back to another edition of the Imagen Golf Podcast! I am your host, Daniel Guest, and as always, we are here with one simple mission: to help you play the best golf of your life, simplify this crazy game, and get you having more fun on the fairway.If you're driving to the course right now, or maybe you're stuck in traffic dreaming of the weekend round, turn up the volume. Today we are going to talk about a visual cue that is so simple, yet so misunderstood. It's a "silent killer" of power for so many amateurs, but when you get it right... oh man, it changes everything.I'm talking about your knees. Specifically, seeing the light between them.So, let's dive right in. I was reviewing some swing analysis videos earlier this week with our students, and I noticed a pattern. It's the classic "power leak."We all know we need to rotate, right? We hear it all the time. "Turn your hips," "Load into the right side," "Coil." But what does that actually look like?Here is the problem: Most golfers, when they try to turn, they actually slide. Or, they do the opposite—they collapse.Imagine looking at a golfer from face-on (looking right at their belt buckle). When they take the club back, if that lead knee (the left knee for righties) collapses and touches the right knee, what happens? You've lost your base. You've got no tension. You've got no torque. You're just... soft.Onthe flip side, if you keep those knees frozen like two pillars of cement, you can't turn at all!The Golden Visual: The "Window of Light"Here is the visual I want you to "Imagen" today.When you make a proper backswing—a true rotation around your spine—your lead knee moves inward and points toward the golf ball, while your trail leg straightens just a tiny bit (but stays flexed).If you do this correctly, looking from face-on, there should be a distinct gap of light between your knees.Why does this matter? Why is that "light" so powerful?1. It Proves You Are Rotating, Not SwayingIf you sway to the right (sliding your hips), your knees often stay the same distance apart, but the whole structure shifts. You haven't created power; you've just moved your zip code.But when you rotate, that lead knee works away from the target. It creates a dynamic angle. That "light" between the knees tells me that your hips have turned deep, but your feet are still grounded.2. It Prevents the "Knee Kiss"I see this a lot with senior golfers or people trying to get a "long" swing. They let that left knee collapse all the way until it touches the right knee. If your knees are kissing, you are in big trouble. You have zero resistance. You can't fire from there. You have to re-plant the heel, shift the weight, and then turn. It takes too much time.Keeping that daylight between the knees means you have maintained width in your lower body.3. It Creates "Torque"Think of a rubber band. To shoot it far, you have to pull one end back while holding the other end stable. That space between your knees? That's the tension in the rubber band.If the space disappears (knees touch), the rubber band goes slack. If the space doesn't change (no turn), you never stretched the rubber band.The "Flashlight" DrillSo, how do we feel this? I want you to try this next time you are on the range or even in your living room.Step 1: Take your setup.Step 2: Imagine there is a flashlight strapped to the inside of your right knee, shining at your left knee.Step 3: As you swing to the top, don't let your left knee block that light. And don't let your left knee run away from the light.Step 4: Feel the left knee move towards the ball, while the right hip goes back.You should feel a stretch in your right glute (your butt cheek). If you look in a mirror, you should see daylight—a nice, athletic gap between the legs.Key Takeaway: The lead knee moves, but it respects the space of the trail knee. They are neighbors, but they don't live in the same house!When you maintain that gap, you are loaded. You are ready to transition. From there, all you have to do is plant that left heel and let the hips unwind. But if you've collapsed that gap, you're stuck.Final ThoughtsGolf is a visual game. At Imagen Golf, we believe that if you can see it, you can do it. Stop worrying about degrees of rotation or complex biomechanics for a second. Just look for the light.Next time you film your swing, pause it at the top.Do you see daylight between the knees?Does it look athletic?Or does it look like your legs are tangled up?Keep that space. Keep that tension. That is where your power lives.All right, that's it for today's quick tip! I hope this sheds some "light" on your backswing—pun absolutely intended.Get out there, keep it simple, and as always... get the clutter out of your head so you can play the game you were meant to play.For more tips, head over to imagengolf.com, check out our lessons, and let's get you dialed in.Until next time, keep imagining better golf!Here is the "Window of Power" Practice Plan, designed to help you lock in that proper rotation and maintain the gap between your knees.⛳ The "Window of Power" Practice PlanFocus: Creating Lower Body Stability & Torque Goal: Eliminate the "Knee Kiss" and create space for a powerful transition.Daniel Guest: "Welcome to the practice tee! We aren't just hitting balls today; we are building a structure. Remember, we want that daylight between the knees at the top of the swing. That gap is your battery—it's where the energy is stored. Here are three drills to help you feel it."Drill 1: The "Bucket Barrier" (Tactile Feedback)Best for: Golfers who habitually collapse the lead leg.This is the ultimate 'anti-collapse' drill. We are going to put a physical obstacle in the way so your lead knee literally has nowhere to go but the correct direction.The Setup:Take your normal stance with a mid-iron (7 or 8 iron).Place a standard range bucket (standing upright) directly between your legs, positioned right between your knees.Squeeze the bucket slightly with your knees at address to feel engagement.The Action:Take a slow backswing.The Goal: Rotate your hips and shoulders to the top without your lead knee knocking the bucket over.Your lead knee should move forward (towards the toes) and slightly inward, but the bucket prevents it from collapsing all the way to the trail knee.Why It Works: If you knock the bucket over, you know you've lost the "light" and the tension. Keeping the bucket standing forces you to turn your hips around your spine rather than sliding them.Drill 2: The "Wall Slide" (Rotation vs. Sway)Best for: Golfers who sway off the ball instead of turning.Often, the knees stay too close together because the golfer is sliding sideways. This drill ensures you are rotating deep into the right hip, which naturally creates that athletic gap between the knees.The Setup:Stand with your back to a wall (no club needed).Your heels should be about 4–6 inches away from the wall.Get into your golf posture.The Action:Cross your arms over your chest.Make a backswing turn.The Goal: Feel your right butt cheek (trail glute) slide back and touch the wall.At the same time, keep your left butt cheek off the wall.Why It Works: When the right hip goes back (touching the wall), it pulls the right knee slightly straighter (but not locked). This movement naturally creates space between the knees. If you slide sideways, your hip won't touch the wall, and your knees will look weak.Drill 3: The "Freeze & Check" (Visual Confirmation)Best for: connecting the 'feel' to the 'real'.This builds the mental image we talked about in the podcast.The Setup:Set up in front of a mirror (face-on view) or set up your phone to record face-on.If you don't have a mirror, use a window reflection.The Action:Swing to the top and FREEZE. Hold it for 3 seconds.Look at your knees.Check 1: Is there daylight between them?Check 2: Is the lead knee pointing generally toward the ball (or slightly behind it), rather than at your right foot?Check 3: Do you feel pressure on the inside of your right heel?If you see the light and feel the pressure, hit the ball from that frozen position (at 50% speed).Why It Works: This programs your brain to recognize the correct position. By hitting the ball after freezing, you are teaching your body how to unleash the power stored in that "gap."

Jon Tattersall makes his second appearance on the #OntheMark podcast as he joins Mark Immelman to discuss some misunderstood moves and elements in a powerful, consistent golf-swing. Originally from Northwest England, Jon is a highly respected and decorated instructor who co-founded and operates Fusion ATL in Atlanta, GA. USA. He is a Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher, a Golf Digest Top 50 Instructor and a former Georgia PGA Teacher of the Year. Jon and his team have worked with numerous elite golfers including Major Champions, PGA TOUR, LPGA and European Tour winners and Ryder Cup and Presidents Cuppers. His insight and knowledge are second to none and, with the help of his data research, he makes sense of a number of misunderstandings in the golf swing, incl.: Body Rotation/Pivot and how much Rotation actually takes place in the golf-swing Shaft Lean, and the illusion thereof Lag, and the illusion thereof The correct and appropriate Timing of the Swing, and Body Tilts and the correct Arc of the swing This podcast can also be watched on YouTube.  Search and subscribe to Mark Immelman and share it with your golfing friends.

In Part 2 of Episode 50, I'm joined by Scott Munroe, Golf Magazine Top 100 Teacher and one of the “Hoosiers” from the Two Hoosiers & a Hong crew. Scott is a longtime Teaching Professional at the ultra-exclusive Nantucket Golf Club in the summer. If you've ever wondered what golf looks like behind the gates of one of the most private clubs in the country, Scott takes us there. Nantucket has had members like Jack Welch and Bill Belichick, and the course was designed by our good friend Rees Jones, so the stories run deep. Scott also shares how he develops junior players in a way that may surprise you — teaching them backwards, starting on the putting green and working out toward the tee. It's a strategy we also heard from our friend Eva Rogers. Scott explains why it helps kids understand scoring, feel, and confidence faster than any launch monitor ever could. We also talk about the unique culture among great coaches in golf: the freedom and willingness to share knowledge, not guard it. No “secret sauce.” No holding back. Just helping each other help more players enjoy the game. And before we wrap, Scott gives us a few simple home drills to keep your swing loose and active during the colder months, so you don't feel like you're starting over when spring rolls back around. It's fun, insightful, and full of takeaways you can use right away. Scott is fantastic, you're going to love him.

In this episode of the Golf IQ podcast, LKD talks with Drew Powell about a recent article about things you never hear scratch golfers say. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

In this powerful episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I sit down with former MMA coach and mindset expert, Patrick Sebastien, to explore the art of mental toughness — both inside and outside the ropes.  Drawing from years in the fight world and his work with elite golfers, Patrick unpacks how adversity, flow states, and physical intensity combine to build unshakable confidence and resilience on the golf course. You'll learn how to intentionally seek and use adversity to your advantage, train like an athlete to improve emotional control under pressure, and create your own blueprint for peak performance. Patrick and I dive deep into visualization, breathwork, and post-round reflection as essential tools to develop composure, focus, and self-belief when the stakes are high. In this episode, you'll learn: How to reframe adversity as opportunity and bounce back fast after a blow-up hole (or business setback). Why flow states require struggle first, and how to use challenge to trigger "the zone." A simple gym-to-course formula: create controlled physical stress, then regulate it with breath so pressure feels familiar on the tee. The breath training + visualization sequence Patrick uses pre-round to build calm, focus, and confidence. How to design on-course pressure reps (mini challenges) so tournaments feel like just another rep. How an identity shift ("I am an athlete") unlocks consistency, intensity, and faster scoring gains. The expect/accept model: expect greatness, accept imperfection, and re-engage on the next shot. Ways to calibrate your arousal level (not too calm, not too hyped) to hit your personal performance sweet spot. Whether you're chasing a club championship or your next business milestone, this episode will help you expect greatness — and perform like it. Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here. More About Patrick Sebastien Patrick Sebastien is a performance coach who helps golfers elevate their game through a holistic approach that blends physical conditioning, mental training, and strategic mastery. With over 20 years of experience teaching Muay Thai and MMA, 15 years as a personal trainer specializing in functional fitness, and 10 years guiding breath training and meditation, Patrick brings a unique perspective to golf performance optimization. He began coaching in golf in 2022 after working with a Korn Ferry Tour player as a mental coach, and has since trained professionals, college athletes, and elite junior golfers, using his unique approach to physical and mental training for golf. Patrick specializes in preparing players to excel on and off the course by integrating strength, mobility, focus, and strategic awareness.  Connect with Patrick: Website Instagram YouTube Play to Your Potential On (and Off) the Course Schedule a Mindset Coaching Discovery Call Subscribe to the More Pars than Bogeys Newsletter Download my "Play Your Best Round" free hypnosis audio recording.

Adversity creates flow; no struggle, no growth. Great players train adversity before they face it. Physical stress builds emotional control. Fitness isn't optional—it's a performance multiplier. Breathwork bridges chaos and composure. Journaling post-round accelerates learning and awareness. You can't control results—but you can always control your process. Expect greatness, but accept imperfection. Visualization isn't fantasy—it's mental reps for success. Meditation sharpens calm, control, and clarity under pressure. True athletes embrace discomfort and keep expanding their limits. A champion's mindset is forged in the gym before it's displayed on the course. Key Quotes: Adversity is a wake-up call. It's fuel, not failure. Flow only exists because of struggle. Train hard, fight easy. The harder your training, the easier your performance. Physical stress and mental stress present the same way. Learn to master one, and you master both. If you never fail, you're probably not trying hard enough. Expect greatness while accepting less than greatness. The further I went in martial arts, the more peaceful I became. You can't control what the course throws at you, but you can control how you respond. Golfers don't need to become bodybuilders—they need to become athletes. If you don't expect greatness, how will you ever achieve it? The champion's mindset is earned in the gym before it's displayed on the course.

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?

Welcome to the "Saturday Morning Golf Stat" from the Hack it Out Golf Podcast. This one is a doozy. Lou puts a pretty straightforward question to Greg and Mark: how often will golfers of different skill levels miss the green from a greenside bunker? The answer is likely to surprise you. But after a few tips for improving your bunker play, things go a little off the rails. Golfers are competitive. Always. Each of these will be a mini-episode (10-15 minutes long) about an interesting golf stat. We will discuss what you can learn, and most importantly, how you can apply this on the golf course to lower your scores and lower your handicap.
