🚨 WARNING: Not all swing advice is created equal.
In this episode, we break down some of the most misleading golf swing tips floating around big box instruction — and give you the measured, tour-backed truth that actually leads to longer drives and more consistent ball striking.
Shuan Webb and Mike Granto from Athletic Motion Golf dissect the swing of 3M Champion Potgieter and uncover the three core moves you’ll see in every big hitter’s swing:
- ✅ Loading into the trail side (why “stay left” is hurting your game)
- ✅ Replacing the trail shoulder with the lead shoulder
- ✅ Letting the arms and hips move naturally — not locked in a straightjacket
📉 If you've ever been told to:
- Stay on your front foot in the backswing...
- Point your lead shoulder down at the ball...
- Keep your arms pinned or restrict your hip motion...
😳 Then you're probably doing more harm than good.
We walk you through how to recognize bad advice, what to look for in elite-level swings, and how modern measurement tools debunk the old-school myths.
🎯 Whether you're a weekend warrior or aspiring tour player, this is the info that will help you hit it further, cleaner, and with confidence.
