    Ep 175 - Wednesday (midweek) Wisdom - The 32-Metre Gap That Wasn’t a Swing Fault

    This week I want to share a really interesting lesson from a coaching session that opened up a bigger conversation about performance. I had a client who has been improving really nicely. His swing is trending in the right direction, contact is better, and overall ball flight has improved. But there was still one big frustration… inconsistency with his irons. So we put him on the launch monitor. With his 7 iron, his carry distance was ranging anywhere from 109 metres to 141 metres. That’s a 32-metre gap with the same club. For any golfer, that’s nearly the difference between being on the green or in a bunker over the back. Now here’s where it gets interesting. I grabbed a different 7 iron — something I felt was better suited to his speed and delivery. Same player. Same swing. Same session. Suddenly his carries were between 138 metres and 143 metres. Tight window. Predictable. Repeatable. Nothing magical happened to his technique in those 10 minutes. The difference? Equipment. In this episode we talk about:Why inconsistency isn’t always a swing issueHow launch monitor data can expose hidden problemsThe role shafts, loft, and head design play in distance controlWhy guessing your yardages can cost you shots every roundSometimes we beat ourselves up thinking our swing is broken… when in reality, the tools we’re using might be working against us. If you’ve ever felt like you “flush one” and it comes up 20 metres short — this episode is for you.
