In this episode of Athletic Motion Golf, the podcast, we look at how to get the most out of your practice time.  We will walk you through exactly how to practice full swing vs short game, how to set up a practice station and lastly, how you can improve away from the course which is MASSIVELY beneficial for your game.  This is a must-listen for every golfer.

In this episode, we look at how the right knee moves in the golf swing.  This particular aspect of the swing has been taught in different ways over the years, and we discuss what we feel is the most beneficial way to move it based off of our 3D tour data.

Possibly the most overlooked piece of the golf swing that has the biggest impact on the quality of your shots, is your grip.  Having a grip that helps you generate more speed, increase compression, lean the shaft forward, and control the clubface is something that EVERY golfer can and should do.  In this episode, we explain how to do it.

There’s one shot in golf that you cannot game plan for.   Hooks and slices can be somewhat managed, but if you have a tendency to hit it heavy or fat, you’re in trouble.  You’re losing distance (and golf balls) when this shot shows up.  In this episode, we identify the causes and explain how to remove this shot from your game.

If you’re serious about improving, recording your swing is a great way to provide yourself with valuable feedback.  But if you set up your camera in the wrong place, you can actually do yourself more harm than good.  In this episode, we discuss how to set up your camera correctly and why it’s so important.
