Part 4 of 5 in our Science of the Swing series, inspired by the book The Science of Golf by Will Haskett. Two golfers, identical swings, wildly different results. Today, we get into the real science hiding inside your golf bag: shaft flex, center of gravity, and a little thing called MOI, and why equipment that doesn't match your swing can create problems that look exactly like swing flaws.

If you've been grinding on the range trying to fix a miss that just won't go away, this episode might point you somewhere you haven't looked yet.

Part 3 of 5 in our Science of the Swing series, inspired by the book The Science of Golf by Will Haskett. For decades, golf instruction got the main reason your ball curves slightly backwards. Today we break down what the ball flight laws actually say, why your clubface is doing most of the talking, and why the classic advice for fixing a slice can sometimes make it worse.

If you've ever fought a slice or a hook that just won't go away no matter what you try, this episode gives you the real diagnostic tool the pros use, no expensive equipment required.

Part 2 of 5 in our Science of the Swing series, inspired by the book The Science of Golf by Will Haskett. Pros and amateurs use the exact same muscles in the golf swing. So why does one look effortless and the other looks like work? Today we get into the kinematic sequence, the hidden order your body is supposed to move in in every swing, and what happens when that order breaks down.

If you've ever been told you're "casting" or "coming over the top," this episode explains what's really going on underneath those phrases, and gives you a simple way to feel the fix on your very next range session.

Part 1 of 5 in our Science of the Swing series, inspired by the book The Science of Golf by Will Haskett. There's a moment in your golf swing that lasts less than half a millisecond, and it decides everything about where your ball ends up. Today we break down what's actually happening at impact, why chasing clubhead speed can be the wrong move, and the one number that separates a bomber from someone who just swings hard.

You've probably mishit a shot and had it curve in some strange direction you didn't expect. That's not bad luck, that's a real thing called gear effect, and once you understand it, your misses start making a lot more sense. Tune in for the physics that actually moves your golf ball.

I used to think the shakiest part of my game was the part where I got mad. Turns out that's backwards. In this one, I'm closing out our five-part series on Jared Tendler's Everyday Golf Psychology with the idea that changed how I think about every bad shot I hit.

There's a reason the best poker players in the world don't try to calm down when they're furious — and the same logic applies the next time you slam a club after a three-putt. I'll walk through exactly how to use that feeling instead of fighting it, and how it ties the whole series together.

Greg Norman had a six-shot lead at the Masters and the exact same swing that got him there. By the back nine, it was gone. Same motion, same guy — so what actually changed?

Today on Close the Gap, we're looking at why the range and the course are never really the same task, even when the swing is identical. It's the reason "just practice more" doesn't always fix Sunday

In 1997, a college golfer stood over four short putts at a U.S. Open qualifier — and missed every one, losing a playoff spot by exactly one shot. Most people would've spent the rest of their life trying to forget that afternoon.

This guy went the other way. He turned it into a twenty-year career studying exactly why golfers fall apart under pressure — and today I get into what he actually did with that failure, and why your worst round might be more useful than you think.

Ever notice how one guy takes a bad bounce in stride, and another guy is still complaining about it three holes later? Turns out that reaction says more about your scorecard than your swing ever will.

Today we're getting into one of the most misunderstood parts of the mental game — and it might explain more of your bad rounds than you think.
