We answer a listeners question on the podcast this week!

Have a question for us? Hit reply and I'll talk about it with Luke and Justin on the next episode.

In this issue:

• Driver vs. iron: are they two different swings? Justin and Luke go deep.
• The 150-year-old move we stopped teaching (and the pros are quietly bringing back)
• 😴 A Whoop stat that ties your recovery to your scoring average
• The suprising future of sim golf is closer than you think.

​This week on the podcast: is your driver swing supposed to be different from your iron swing?

A listener asked it, so Justin and Luke went deep. Here's why it's worth 50 minutes:

​

• Luke talks about the two types of swings you need... the 🚀cannon vs. the ⚓️anchor.
  ​
• The 150-year-old move we stopped teaching. Snead's trail-heel lift. Turns out the pre-swing trigger the old-timers used is exactly the P0 move biomechanists are re-discovering now.
  ​
• Fade the driver, draw the irons. Alex Fitzpatrick told me he does exactly this. Justin explains how the same swing gives you two shapes.

​ 🙌 Well Played: This Week’s Top Finds: Watches + golf = 🏆 ​ 😴 Whoop shared an interesting correlation between "recovery" and average score. ⚙ Which players made stats gains and switched equipment this year? Cool post from GolfWRX. ​ ➼ If you ever get a chance to learn flighted wedges from Jason Day you probably should. And today we do! ​

New golf tech is getting RIDICULOUS.

​Golf+ makes some killer VR golf software.

If you own a Meta Quest you can play really cool golf courses and it honestly feels like you're there.

Plus if you buy a "club" for the controller you can swing a club with real grip and weight of a real club.

It's awesome.

Idk why more golfers aren't super into VR.

They just came out with something that's even more mind blowing.

​Putting simulation with a real ball and putter. ​

I pulled up Royal Birkdale and hit some putts around there. It's honestly just like being there and feeling the different distances of lag putting

The data is was capturing was pretty impressive.

​Check it out. ​

I'm pretty dang confident in the next 3-5 years simulators (full swings) will be in VR/AR type set up.

It's going to get very very fun to play sim golf.

Have a great week!
