Can ground forces really change your shot shape? Or is their role overstated? In this episode, Erik, Jayson, and Tyson explore how forces/pressure shifts, the generated torque, and the point of application can influence ball flight, while debating just how much they actually matter. They discuss the small margins between fades and draws, why many golfers chasing a new shape may be applying the wrong magnitude or direction of force, and how other factors (like clubface and path) still dominate. The conversation also touches on why some players are naturally biased toward certain shot shapes and how forces may subtly support (but not dictate) those tendencies.

Hosts: Erik J. Barzeski, Jayson Nickol, Tyson Deskins
