Six-time PGA Tour winner Hunter Mahan joins Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme to talk about his unexpected return to golf. Mahan opens up on why he stepped away from competing in 2021 — burnout, the grind of travel, and an envy that "took over" and wasn't good for his soul — and what's pulled him back into playing after several years coaching high school golf at Liberty Christian in Argyle, Texas, alongside football coach Jason Witten. A few months of posting practice-round videos to social media turned into a full comeback arc, complete with a new equipment deal through Grant Horvat's Primo.Plus: Hunter breaks down the swing videos he's been posting — his takeaway feel, getting the clubface more shut, and clearing up the Justin Rose "shallowing" myth — and walks through his short game reboot under Stan Utley (of Parker McLachlin's Short Game Chef), including the shaft-angle and forearm-rotation keys that turned his chipping around. The guys also get into a wide-ranging Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup conversation: why Team Europe consistently looks looser under pressure, Mahan's own Presidents Cup debut alongside Justin Leonard and Paul Azinger, the case for a real U.S. national team pipeline, and a frank look back at the U.S. team's collapse at Bethpage in 2025.Before they let him go: Hunter's top tips for teaching your kids golf, and a very serious debate over which foursome wins — the Golf Boys or the 2016 Spring Breakers.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters0:00 Intro & why the beard came off1:41 Why Hunter Mahan stepped away from the tour — and what's pulling him back3:03 Coaching high school golf with Jason Witten at Liberty Christian7:42 The burnout and envy that pushed him away from competing9:56 What went wrong with his swing after 201515:11 Breaking down Hunter's Instagram swing videos 21:53 Inside his short-game reboot with Stan Utley27:16 Who spins it best around the greens on tour? 29:33 Utley's keys: shaft angle, forearm rotation, hitting it high vs. low33:09 The "level eyes" fix and driving through the chip40:33 Ryder Cup vs. Presidents Cup — why Team Europe has the edge49:44 Mahan's Presidents Cup debut: Justin Leonard & Paul Azinger52:42 Building a real U.S. national team pipeline56:18 Bethpage 2025 post-mortem: "everyone's got a plan till they get hit in the mouth"59:06 Hunter's top tips for teaching kids golf1:02:32 Hypothetical: Golf Boys vs. the 2016 Spring Breakers1:06:03 Sign-off#golf #huntermahan #pgatour #smyliekaufman #smylieshow #golfpodcast #golfhighlights

Sean Foley joins the show to break down Michael Thorbjornsen's first PGA Tour win at the Rocket Classic — a bogey-free final-round 63 that came together in barely six weeks of work with Foley, built around going back to video of Thorbjornsen's swing from Stanford in 2018. Foley walks through exactly what he saw, what they're working on, and why the answer was already in Thorbjornsen's own history.Plus: Foley digs into his full player room this summer — Tom Kim's emotional Genesis Scottish Open win, Michael Kim's historic 59 at the 3M Open and the three-month process of retraining his swing around a stronger grip, Ben An's four-year driver transformation, and the "humans first, golfer second" coaching philosophy he's built over two decades on tour with players like Tiger Woods, Justin Rose, and Hunter Mahan.Don't forget to like, comment, subscribe, and follow us on socials @thesmylieshow!Chapters0:00 Intro & congrats to Sean Foley on Thorbjornsen's Rocket Classic win2:08 Foley on watching Thor's win & his history with Michael since age 164:02 Foley's 20-year coaching evolution — "player support," humans first golfer second6:29 Scottie Scheffler's rising floor & the new generation's mindset7:28 Tom Kim & Thorbjornsen's shared high expectations turning pro8:23 Coaching Tom Kim: rebuilding posture, connection & swing DNA11:09 Thorbjornsen's swing fix: back to his 2018 Stanford video12:14 Breaking down Thorbjornsen's swing — grip, posture, wrist angles19:32 Thor's shot-shape arsenal beyond the draw21:13 Foley's coaching philosophy23:23 Michael Kim's comeback25:16 Retraining Kim's pattern — hitting snap hooks for 3 months28:16 Coaching psychology — bad memories & letting players enjoy wins30:18 Consistency over "feel" & the dad-as-coach dynamic32:35 Enjoying golf vs. having fun — and Foley's "do no harm" rule#golf #pgatour #smylieshow #michaelthorbjornsen #rocketclassic #smyliekaufman

On this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb reveal something they've spent over 10 years building.After more than a decade giving 3D lessons, we kept seeing the same fault in 99% of golfers: the trail arm. It over-bends, pulls behind the rib cage, and lowers — and that combination is what sends the club steep and over the top in transition. We tried every training aid out there to fix it, and never loved any of them: they were cumbersome, they didn't fit every arm, and worst of all, most did the work FOR you — so nothing transferred once you took them off.So we built our own. In this episode we walk through the whole journey...the forearm braces golfers used as a "door stop," the velcroed squeaky dog toys, the adult swimmies (yes, the Nelly Korda ones), and the version with teeth that "chewed up my arm like a shark" — right up to the finished design: the Arm Shark. It gives you two kinds of instant feedback — a tactile give and an audible click — the moment your trail arm bends too much, so you do 100% of the movement yourself. No app, no Bluetooth, just old-school analog pass/fail. In testing we're seeing 30–40° of arm-bend change in just a few swings, and it works for the takeaway, the downswing (staying wide like Hunter Mahan), setup, and short game. It ships with three fins for every arm type and skill level.This kicks off the next phase of AMG — turning a decade of data into tools that make these concepts tangible in your very next practice session.

In this latest episode of Chasing Pa In rs Golf Podcast which is Proudly sponsored by Golf Tips Checker I was joined by 2x Sunshine Tour champion & 4x DP World Tour runner up as I give you the remarkable story of Justin Walters. In a really deep, honest, meaningful at times tough not to feel emotional chat Justin goes at length about how career struggles affected him, the heavy loss of both parents with remarkable bravery to recover from such adversity to being a main stay on the DP World Tour for over a decade!   Justin was born in South Africa but is Half South African & Half English by his own admission due to having an English mother. Justin would take a college placement in the States in 2001 while managing to get into the University of North Carolina State & was number 1 at a period of time at NC State playing every week against serious players including PGA Tour players Hunter Mahan, Bill Haas, Brandt Snedeker, D.J. Trahan & Ryan Moore. In 2002 due to having dual citizenship Justin would get the call up to team GB & Ireland for Palmer Cup where alongside Oliver Wilson & Stuart Manley would battle a very talented US side consisting of the best college talent (Haas, Mahan, Trahan, Nick Watney).    Justin would turn pro in 2003 & although would struggle in his first few years he would win 2004 Parmalat Classic on Sunshine Tour & 2005 Statesville Open on Tarheel Tour (US). In 2011 he would pick up his 2nd Sunshine Tour title at Investec Royal Swazi Open in the Stableford format legit coming off a 3 weeks injury layoff after slicing the top of a finger. 2013 was the year that propelled Justin properly on Tour ending up a career high 64th on Race to Dubai standings, 2013 European Tour Graduate of the Year & a 2nd at Portugal Masters pipped by David Lynn & contended in the big Turkish Airlines Open event which included Justin Rose & Tiger nonetheless. We get a story of how Justin was just a baby away from the greatest and being mesmerized by his swing! 2019 was also a strong year with a 2nd back home at Dimension Data Pro- Am & T2nd again in Portugal. In 2020 after the COVID restart Justin would lead ISPS Handa UK Championship at The Belfry Brabazon Course from start to finish until making a few mistakes going for home when Rasmus Hojgaard with an amazing finish got into a playoff where Hojgaard would win & still to this day Justin's biggest regret. He loves the Belfry after also a T3rd in 2022 at Betfred British Masters.    From promising college career to career struggles to near misses on the main tour to personal tragedies this is a must listen to episode. I fully appreciate Justin's full honesty! Wish him all the best for 2024.

Bob Harig, ESPN.com, calls in at the top of the show to discuss team USA beating the International team by one point. Holly asks Bob if the President's Cup came up in the ranking compared to the Ryder Cup?  Bob said it's hard to compare the two with the history of the Ryder Cup.  Bob said that when one team dominates, the interest falls off. He said the Ryder Cup used to be the same way in the '70s. It came down to Bill Haas versus Sang Moon Bae. The story line was great with Bill's dad Jay serving as the USA's captain. Sang Moon was playing in his last event before leaving for mandatory military service. Bob pointed out that Sang Moon Bae's duffed chip shot on the 18th was eerily similar to what happened to Hunter Mahan in the Ryder Cup. Heartbreaking. Holly and Bob talk about the start of the new season with the Frys.com tournament. Bob thinks there is not a break for fans to miss golf. Bob said maybe play a tournament in Australia or Asia so its unique and maybe can be shown at night on television.  Mike Purkey, Global Golf Post, calls in to talk to Holly about the Presidents Cup and the challenges of the International team. Nick Price had a difficult challenge having players from 8 different countries and have them play well given just the language barriers teammates. Holly and Mike discuss the Champions Tour and how Colin Montgomerie has taken the senior tour by storm and has such a great following.  G.W. Cable, PGA Tour caddy for Chris Kirk, was at the President's Cup and talks to Holly about the USA's win at the President's Cup and how it was as a caddy. The emotion is like no other. Even as a caddy being in that moment is just so different than anything else. Holly and GW talk about the differences as a fan between the President's Cup and the Ryder Cup. Holly G asks GW what was it like going to South Korea with the time difference and how it affects the players and caddies. Mental Conditioning Coach Dr Bob Winters, David Leadbetter Academy, calls in to the show to wrap up the show talking to Holly about the final hole and the final two players. Dr Bob had said for a few weeks that he thought it was going to come down to the wire and the International team was a lot deeper than some fans thought. Sometimes the home field advantage actually acts as a detriment to some players. The players want to win so badly for their home country and their team and the momentum can change in a heartbeat. Holly talks to Dr Bob about the two year break for Sang Moon and how the tournament ended for him. Dr Bob said that Sang Moon had a great tournament and he needs to look back and relish the good moments and not focus on a bad one. Mistake Free Golf is Dr Bob's latest book. Dr Bob says that he feels the typical player gets ahead of himself or herself too much when playing a round of golf. When they are on the 5th hole they assess their game and project what score they will finish 18th hole with. He said that we need to quit being a human calculator and just play each shot as it comes.
