About this listen
Why does your golf swing feel solid on the range…but completely fall apart when it matters most?In this episode of the Macro Golf Podcast, we break down why swing changes disappear under pressure — and why the old move always seems to creep back in on the course.This isn’t just a mental issue.It’s a blend of physical capacity, technical ownership, and decision-making under pressure — and most golfers misunderstand which one is actually failing them.🎯 What We Cover in This EpisodeWhy swing changes often hold up early in a round — then disappearHow warming up, fatigue, and physical freedom change your movement patternsWhy your body defaults to old habits when it doesn’t fully own the new moveThe difference between range success and on-course performanceWhy pressure physically changes sequencing, speed, and club deliveryHow fear of outcomes (OB, water, score) quietly destroys commitmentWhy most golfers blame technique when the real issue is decision-makingThe exact step-by-step process to take swing changes from practice → pressure🧠 The Big Insight Most Golfers MissYour swing doesn’t break down because the change is “bad.”It breaks down because:your body can’t sustain it yetyour brain doesn’t trust it under consequenceor you haven’t trained it in environments that actually create pressureIf the new move isn’t your default pattern, your nervous system will abandon it the moment stress appears.That’s not weakness — that’s biology.🛠️ How to Make Swing Changes Stick on the CourseWe outline a clear progression:Skill acquisition (block practice)Pressure simulation (games + constraints)On-course experimentation (without score obsession)Full competitive exposureMiss a step — and the change won’t survive.This episode is essential listening if:your swing looks great on video but fails on the courseyou keep “losing it” mid-roundor you’re stuck between practicing well and scoring poorly📈 Take the free Golf Performance Scorecard for a free off-season performance plan→ https://macrogolfonline.co.uk/audit🏌️♂️ Apply for 1:1 coaching→ https://macrogolfonline.co.uk/coaching📲 Try the Macro Golf App→ https://macrogolfonline.co.uk/appFollow us on Instagram@Joe_MacroGolf@Sam_MacroGolf@Jack_MacroGolf@MacroGolf_
