In this wide-ranging conversation, Erik and Tyson are joined by Monte Scheinblum, longtime golf instructor, long-drive world champion, and one of the most outspoken voices in modern instruction. Monte shares his unfiltered thoughts on the state of golf instruction on social media, why popularity often outpaces real teaching experience, and how conflicting messages have confused golfers for decades. The discussion centers on the growing importance of objective data, which parameters actually matter when helping players improve, and why feel-based teaching still needs a reality check. The episode wraps with a look at Monte’s well-known 30 Days to 300 speed program and how average golfers can pursue distance gains without wrecking their swings.

Hosts: Erik J. Barzeski, Tyson Deskins

How much should you really care about “average” Tour numbers? In this episode, Erik, Jayson, and Tyson explain why averages only tell part of the story, and why great golf lives inside windows and ranges, not exact positions. They discuss common benchmarks like pelvis rotation and angle of attack, then show how wide the playable ranges actually are, especially when club speed, ball flight goals, and individual matchups are considered. The conversation highlights why movement patterns (upright vs. flat, more shift vs. more turn) matter just as much as raw numbers, and why chasing a single “ideal” position often leads golfers astray.

In this reflective episode, Erik, Jayson, and Tyson each share a teaching concept they’ve moved away from, as well as why their thinking changed. Erik explains how extending the trail knee, once a common cue, doesn’t actually show up in great swings and how 2D video can be misleading. Jayson discusses why teaching golfers to “sweep” chip shots often leads to worse contact by introducing too much debris between the ball and face. Tyson breaks down why drills like the Punisher Drill don’t reflect real swing mechanics, and why modern tools and root-cause analysis have reshaped how he coaches.
