About this episode
What separates a good swing from a tour-level one? It’s not just club path or face angle—it’s how the body moves, especially through impact. And no move is more revealing than what the pelvis does around P9 (trail arm parallel in the follow-through). In this episode, Mike and Shaun from Athletic Motion Golf talk shop from inside the Athletic Motion Golf Club, where top teachers and players share real insights, test theories, and reverse-engineer what the best in the world do. You’ll hear how technology like Gears and force plates helps them see exactly where elite players are—and where most amateurs go wrong. They break down how anterior/posterior tilt, side bend, trail leg action, and upper body orientation affect what happens at impact and beyond. They also explain why mobility matters more than raw athleticism, how even great athletes can struggle without the right movement patterns, and what most instructors are missing. It’s not about guessing—it’s about measuring. If you’ve ever wondered why some swings just look tour… this episode shows you the difference.
