There seems to be a weirdly huge crossover between ice hockey and golf, which I guess makes sense. They’re both stick-and-ball sports, and many hockey motions hit the same key muscle groups that are fantastic for the golf swing. Cameron Young is perhaps the best current example on the PGA Tour. Young is a rising Read more…
Like all the greats, Tiger Woods guards his secrets close. It’s a small and tight circle of golfers who are allowed to learn from the lifetime of knowledge that one of the game’s greatest ever players has accumulated over the years. Over the weekend at the PNC Championship, we got a glimpse into a small Read more…
How do you transfer your weight in your golf swing? Moving your weight, or pressure, from side-to-side should feel as natural as walking, because it is, ultimately, a stepping motion.

The combination of lots of youthful flexibility with an undeveloped upper body means it’s the lower body that becomes the powerhouse of lots of junior golfers’ swings. And Tiger’s message for Charlie was simple: that’s just fine.
Yes, a longer backswing will help you hit longer drives, but trying to lengthen your backswing by any means necessary can often have the opposite effect. Here’s why.

Every now and again I’m tasked with covering a golf tournament where Lee Trevino is playing, and you can’t help but get pulled into his orbit whenever you do. The six-time major champion is still an avid range rat who holds court whenever he gets the chance. In honor of his 84th birthday this week, Read more…
It’s so frustrating when you try to do the smart, mature, safe thing and hit a lay-up shot, and then screw it up. So, that’s the topic we decided to tackle.
Tiger Woods has been on a bit of a hot streak recently. Not on the golf course (though with his return at the Hero World Challenge this week incoming, hopefully we’ll get one of those soon), but in the kind of golf nerd video realm. A few weeks ago, Tiger went viral for his explanation Read more…
Artifical Intellegence is a fascinating subject, and one that’s quickly seeping into industries all over the planet. Including the golf industry. It’s still early in the process — there’ll be plenty more breakthroughs to come — but there’s already lots of progress being made, and it’s a topic we tackle in a little more detail Read more…
So, why do we miss so many of them? And why do pros make so much more of them? That was the question posed and discussed by renowned golf biomechanist Dr Sasho Mackenzie at Andrew Rice’s recent Coach Camp conference.
Stats from Arccos reveal that golfers with a handicap of 15 or higher make a double-bogey after a par close to 30 percent of the time. What’s the key to avoiding them?
