The Fundamentals of a Better Golf Swing with Grant Waite
Building a more consistent golf swing starts with mastering the fundamentals – and few coaches are better qualified to teach them than PGA Tour winner and world-renowned instructor Grant Waite.
In this in-depth FlightScope webinar, Waite joins Jordan Vogler, Influencer and Affiliate Account Manager at FlightScope, to break down the key principles behind an efficient golf swing and demonstrate how launch monitor data can accelerate improvement.
What You’ll Learn
During the session, Waite walked through a step-by-step breakdown of how proper swing structure directly impacts your launch conditions and contact consistency:
-
Setup & Weight Distribution: Why setup changes with each club, the difference between mass shift and pressure shift, and why staying on your back foot to "help the ball up" is a myth.
-
The Proper Takeaway: Learn to control the club's centre of mass, eliminate unnecessary compensations, and generate torque using ground reaction forces instead of simply swinging with your arms.
-
Top of the Swing & Right Arm Mechanics: Key reference points for hand position relative to your trail shoulder, how to avoid steep backswing positions, and the role of external right-arm rotation.
-
Transition Principles: How to load your lead side early without casting or tilting back, avoid early extension, and establish a natural, powerful downswing.
-
Matching Feel with Data: Why contact is king and how metrics such as Club Path, Face to Path, Angle of Attack, and Face Impact Location help remove the guesswork from practice.
