I listened to it today and I’m very proud of this one. Normally when I do something I am only critical of the things that I could have or should have done better and on this one I really didn’t have a list at all. I’m very pleased with how this interview went and the information shared and the way it was shared and everything.

You can find it on Spotify or Apple podcasts or elsewhere of course but that link will also work.

Please give a listen and let me know what you think. And trust me, if you have something critical, that’s good too. That’s generally actually what I want to hear about. 😜

Really good podcast interview. I love Mike’s accent from watching all the videos on Fit for Golf. My one critique would be for you to slow down your speech a bit. It’s not a problem for me because I’m from the Northeast where we talk fast. But other parts of the country talk slower and may have trouble following.

I felt like you were talking about me in the first section. Although I don’t think I was the 3.5” hip center guy in GEARS. 😜. I recall having a few ~2”. I practice this backswing feel a lot even without clubs.

The second part made sense to me, but adduction can be confusing the first time it is described. I like the focus being more on the right elbow not feeling like it’s changing in backswing. That part is easier to understand.

The weight shift section was good especially the force plate part. Feel ain’t real.

The hand path part was good. I felt like it applied to me as well from our GEARS sessions.

The Skill vs Technique section was also good. How to practice is very important and frankly one of the hardest things to learn. Learning how to swing slow is still hard for me.

The last part was excellent. Change is hard and can be uncomfortable. “Embrace Weird” 😉 Sounds like a new t-shirt.

Yeah, that's… not gonna happen. Not any time soon. 😉 I talk quickly.

And… a lot of podcast listeners listen on 1.5x or something. So, maybe they slow down the podcasts I'm on a little bit. 😄

    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
    • I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
    • Yes, but you don't live in the UK, so you have no idea what we think about it here. It's a very different mindset here, to demonstrate the fact you should consider 9 out of 10 games we play here are Stableford, whereas you you almost solely play medal. Neither is right or wrong, it's just different  I'm trying to avoid swearing here. Once again, and for the 1000th time, I understand the system, I just don't agree with it. Is there anything wrong with that? PS, I do not have the time or patience to post my results, especially as they prove nothing  That's because 99% of the posters are Yanks
