If you want to lower your golf scores immediately—this episode is a MUST LISTEN. Shaun Webb and Mike Granato from Athletic Motion Golf reveal the one skill that separates consistent players from frustrated ones... and it’s NOT what most coaches talk about. You’ll learn exactly how to control your ball in the wind, master 3/4 shots, and develop reliable distance control—especially under pressure.

Whether you're an amateur golfer trying to break 90, or a mid-handicapper looking to shoot your personal best, mastering wind strategy and learning how to "throttle" your swing is essential. This episode dives deep into how to build that skill, how to practice it, and what elite players do differently with wedges, irons, and driver in tough conditions.

Plus, you’ll hear how Trackman and other launch monitors can help you map your bag for wind-adjusted yardages—and how this one approach can level up your performance overnight.

If you’re a golfer stuck on the range wondering why your scores don’t drop—even though your swing is improving—this episode is for you. In this podcast, Mike Granato & Shaun Webb break down two insanely overlooked skills that will immediately impact your ability to shoot lower scores: knowing your carry distance and understanding your shot dispersion.

They give you the strategies that go beyond the swing mechanics. These are the “on-course IQ” tools the pros use—but most amateurs ignore. You’ll hear stories from our golf schools, live coaching insights, and what happens when golfers rely too much on the “perfect shot” instead of playing the smart one.

You’ll also learn:

• Why total distance is a lie—and how carry distance is the real truth
• How to eliminate blow-up holes by playing the likely shot instead of the hero shot
• The “shotgun vs rifle” strategy to better course management
• How practicing 3/4 shots and wedge control saves you strokes
• Real examples from PGA-level players that you can apply today

If you want to stop bleeding strokes on the course—and finally understand the game inside the game—don’t miss this one. It’s a low-hanging fruit episode that could save you 3–5 shots immediately without changing your swing.

n this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb break down a question every golfer thinks they’ve figured out — but most are dead wrong about:

👉 Should you be doing block practice or random practice?

The truth? Most amateur golfers are already practicing randomly without knowing it. Grip, stance, ball position — all of it is inconsistent. And yet they’re still trying to “mix it up” even more… but that’s the fastest way to never build a reliable, repeatable golf swing.

Mike and Shaun dive into the real process tour pros use to groove their swing mechanics, and it’s a LOT less sexy than what social media tells you. It’s structured. Repetitive. Precise. It’s block practice with feedback loops, video, alignment sticks, and obsession with repeatability.

They also draw an incredible analogy between special forces rifle training and elite golf practice — where success under pressure comes from training to tight tolerances, so that randomness doesn’t destroy your performance when it counts.

Whether you’re trying to drop your handicap, strike the ball better, or just understand why your feel never becomes real — this episode is a must-listen for any serious golfer.

🎯 Learn why block practice builds your swing, while random practice refines it (only after your swing is built).
