ANECDOTE

Jayson's Journey to Golf

  • Jayson Nickol, Mike's coach, shares his background in hockey and the military.
  • A shoulder injury and a severe leg injury from an AK-47 round during deployment led him back to golf.
ADVICE

Takeaway Importance

  • Focus on improving your takeaway in golf, as it sets up the rest of your swing.
  • Ensure your hands stay inside your body during your backswing to achieve a better top position.
INSIGHT

Flat Shoulder Turn

  • Turning the shoulders flat can negatively affect arm movement in the golf swing.
  • It forces the club inside to compensate for the lack of proper shoulder rotation.
