Why Most Golfers Practice Too Much and Fix the Wrong Things
Tour coach Ralph Bauer joins the crew to explain what he really says on the range at a PGA Tour event, and why the best coaching is often the least. We dig into shallowing the club out of thick rough, why spine tilt at setup matters, how much block practice is enough, and why working on your strengths can pull you out of a slump. Ralph also shares an update on his method to read greens, plus tour-player stories you can use in your own game.Want to learn the Tour Read system?

Can More Hip Turn Can Actually Fix a Golf Swing?
Cordie, Justin, and Luke unpack a viewer’s criticism of their golf swing advice, discussing trail-foot flare, hip turn, arm lift, and why instruction depends on the individual player. They explain the difference between looking steep and actually shallowing the club, using Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy to explore how width, body motion, and delivery shape a swing. The conversation also covers affordable golf technology and gamified putting practice as great pieces to practice.Want your swing reviewed live on the show?

Why You're Playing Worse Than You Practice (And How To Fix It)
Why your golf swing looks perfect on video but falls apart on the course may come down to one thing: transfer training. Luke Benoit, Justin Kraft, and host Cordie Walker explain how to move from technical practice in a net or on the range to skill development, on-course testing, and confident performance under pressure. They also explore motor learning, neuroplasticity, swing thoughts, practice variability, and how to build a layered training process that helps new changes actually stick.Want your swing reviewed live on the show?
