Episode Notes

What if the real power in your golf swing doesn't come from your arms… but from the ground beneath your feet?

In this episode of The Mind Caddie, we're joined by world-renowned golf biomechanics expert Scott Lynn to break down ground reaction forces (GRF) — one of the most misunderstood yet powerful elements in modern golf instruction.

If you want more distance, consistency, and control, this conversation could completely change how you think about your swing.

We explore:

  • How golfers generate power using the ground
  • Why ground reaction forces are the engine of the golf swing
  • The role of biomechanics in improving performance
  • Why every golfer has a unique "stock movement"
  • How to identify and own your natural swing pattern
  • The influence of body types (and why one-size-fits-all instruction fails)
  • Lessons golf can learn from baseball and other sports
  • Why you can't see force — but must learn to feel it
  • The importance of balance and pressure at address
  • How perception and the brain influence performance

Scott Lynn has helped shape the way elite coaches understand movement, force, and efficiency in the golf swing. This episode is essential listening for golfers, coaches, and anyone serious about long-term improvement.

🎯 Key topics: golf swing mechanics, ground reaction forces, golf biomechanics, power in golf, consistency, ball striking, golf coaching
