Episode notes
Use Training Aids Purposefully
- Use training aids only with clear purpose and integration into real play.
- Avoid over-reliance on aids that don't transfer well to course performance.
Avoid Stopping Drills in Swing
- Drills that stop movement differ biomechanically from real swings and may harm transfer.
- Maintaining whole, continuous movements is critical for golf performance.
