90% of Golf Instructors Teach This Impact Myth (And It’s Ruining Your Swing)

Golfers everywhere are being taught the wrong concept of where impact happens — and it’s destroying swings before they even start. In this video, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb expose the truth that 90% of golf instruction still gets wrong: impact actually happens on the trail side of your body, not the lead side.

If you’ve been grinding on “getting your hands in front of your lead leg,” there’s a high chance you’ve been fighting physics, stalling rotation, and killing your power — all because of a bad address in your mental GPS.

They break down:

• Why the “hands in front” myth persists in lessons worldwide.
• How pros actually position their hands and hips at impact (with 40+ Tour winners’ data to prove it).
• The illusion on TV that makes impact look lead side… but isn’t.
• Why getting this one concept right can finally unlock your rotation, speed, and consistency.

Once you understand this, your entire approach to the golf swing changes — and improvement gets a whole lot easier.

If you’ve been frustrated, plateaued, or even gotten worse after “doing what you were told” — this is the lightbulb moment you’ve been waiting for.
