Ev recently played a round with a better takeaway (less inside), the positions were hitting the marks, and the ball striking was worse than ever. And then Ev had an epiphany—a new theory as to why, when golfers make positive changes in their swing, it never sticks. To unpack and pressure test this theory, Ev asked Keith Bennett, top 100 golf coach and +2 handicap, to hop aboard the podcast for a second time and talk this out. They also do a deep dive on WHY an inside takeaway can be so damaging. If you've ever changed your swing but struggled to get better, and/or fought an inside takeaway, this episode is for you.Ev had been lying to himself for 25 years thinking he needing to spend over $25,000 on a home simulator. Instead, he bought a net and a mat for $250 off amazon with the new Rapsodo MLM2PRO launch monitor for $699 and he's been BLOWN AWAY.
