Back with Part 2 of our deep dive into the most overrated golf swing concepts—and this time we’re tackling two of the BIGGEST myths we see destroying amateur swings: bowing the wrist at the top and shaft lean obsession at impact.

If you’ve ever tried to "fix" your slice by bowing the wrist like DJ, or you’re chasing perfect shaft lean because you saw it in a slow-mo Tour pro video, this episode is for you. We unpack the real mechanics behind these moves and explain why they often do more harm than good for regular golfers.

You’ll learn:

• Why bowing the wrist reduces lag and adds injury risk
• How the best players don’t actually use extreme wrist angles
• The dangers of overdoing shaft lean and the myths of “perfect impact”
• Why recreating Tour visuals often leads to Shank City
• What to do instead: trail wrist mechanics, grip, and natural motion

This isn’t theory—it’s data-backed, lesson-tested, and brutally honest. Drop the “Instagram drills” and find out what really works.

Are you wasting time working on swing tips that don’t matter? In this episode, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb expose the 3 most overrated golf swing concepts that are holding back your game. From early extension to bowed wrists and “handle dragging,” we break down what really matters in the golf swing—and what’s just noise.

Sean and Mike hit the range of bad advice that’s everywhere on Instagram, YouTube, and even from your well-meaning 20-handicap buddy. You’ll learn why “fixing” early extension in your downswing is a fool’s errand, how thrust and tilt get confused, and why most golfers are practicing all wrong.

We pull back the curtain on why pros extend right away, why amateur swings fall apart, and the two things you NEED to fix before trying any Instagram swing hack. This is raw, no-BS insight you won’t get from swing tip reels.

➡️ Whether you're chasing distance, consistency, or just trying to stop topping the ball, this is a must-listen if you're serious about improving your swing.

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.
