Get ready for a deep dive into the science of golf with Dr. Sasho MacKenzie. In this episode, we cover it all, from the surprising impact of iron size on shot shaping to advanced concepts in swing mechanics. Here’s what you’ll learn as we recap the World Scientific Congress of Golf:
- Why smaller irons might not always be better for shaping shots
- The surprising truths about club kinetics and how they influence your swing
- The science behind face-to-path variability and what it means for your game
- How ground interaction affects your wedge play more than you think
- A fascinating analogy involving car doors and swing speed (yes, really!)
- Tips for testing different swing thoughts and stance setups for maximum speed
- The unexpected ways putter weighting can affect your stroke consistency
- What Dr. MacKenzie is researching next, including groundbreaking studies on ground reaction forces
