Description

Continuing our interview with Brian Manzella, we continue to talk about the past and future of golf instruction. We question whether PGA Tour players will simply (and quickly) adjust and regain lost yardage after ball rollback. We discuss the growing availability of practical instruction data and how AI may soon enable golfers to get great swing information from a box. Brian observes how younger instructors bypass tradition in favor of outcomes and talks about individual preferences versus method-based teaching. And yes, we spend some time talking about what we call the "extreme right-side bend swings" that are somewhat popular among the game's younger players (spoiler: we’re not big fans).
