• 012: Pro Tips from Lowest Score Wins, with Mike Granato

  Mike Granato of Athletic Motion Golf returns to join us for a discussion centered around Erik’s book, Lowest Score Wins. We take a closer look at the “Pro Tips” chapter — practical advice for golfers who want to lower scores without overhauling their swings. From managing wind like a pro (hint: it’s not just “one more club” across the board) to the truth about par threes and tournament play, this episode dives into the strategic side of scoring better. We also talk about the power of short, focused rounds, reframing “bad shots,” and how to act like you belong below a scoring barrier — because you’ve already broken that barrier (or can!). Whether you’re a serious competitor or a weekend warrior, these are the kinds of small shifts that can add up to big gains. Hosts: Erik J.

• 011: Prioritizing Swing Changes with GEARS and Mike Granato of Athletic Motion Golf

  This episode features a conversation with Mike Granato of Athletic Motion Golf, where we dive deep into how GEARS 3D motion capture helps instructors and players better understand — and improve — the golf swing. We talk about how to prioritize data when you’re measuring dozens of swing variables, and how to bridge the gap between elite-level movement patterns and the needs of everyday golfers. Mike also helps tackle a common objection: “A Tour player’s swing isn’t realistic for amateurs to copy.” We unpack where that statement holds truth — and where it becomes a limiting belief. Finally, we explore how golfers can continue to make meaningful progress on their own after working with advanced tech like GEARS, force plates, or launch monitors, and how to convert measurement into actionable, sustainable change.

• 010: Commonly Misunderstood Concepts in Golf

  In this episode, we dive into some of the most misunderstood ideas that golfers — of all levels — tend to get backward. We break down why your arms shouldn’t do much in the backswing but are crucial in the downswing, why the hands and club don’t just move straight toward the ball from the top, and how “lateral force” is not the same as swaying (and might actually help prevent it). These aren’t just swing tips — they’re deeper concepts that, when understood correctly, can change the way you move and improve. Hosts: Erik J.

• 009: The Most Common Golf Lessons We Give (Spin Axis Draft Style)

  In Episode 9 of The Spin Axis, the crew goes draft-style again — this time picking the most common swing issues they see in lessons (excluding grip and setup). From over-the-top swings and open clubfaces to tension-filled postures and chicken-winged finishes, Erik, Jayson, and Tyson break down the problems they coach most often—and how they fix them. You’ll hear practical insights on backswing rotation, arm structure, and why what feels right is often what’s holding you back. If you’ve ever wondered what pros actually work on with everyday golfers, this episode gives you a front-row seat. 1. Tyson: Over the top, open face2. Erik: Pelvis thrust in the backswing3. Jayson: Not rotating in the backswing4. Jayson: Grip/body tension5. Erik: “Ulnar throwing” instead of twist/roll to square face6. Tyson: Chicken wing/poor arm structure Hosts: Erik J.
