You’re Not Chunking or Thinning It - You’re Missing Your Arc Depth

In this episode, Jon and Adam unpack one of golf’s most overlooked fundamentals — arc depth, the vertical dimension of your swing that determines whether you strike it pure, fat, or thin. They explain how it differs from attack angle and plane, why it’s the “hidden force” behind contact quality, and how you can train it using simple feedback drills.
