What actually causes big slices with driver, heavy chips, and inconsistent contact in golf?

In this episode, golf coach and content creator Chase Cooper breaks down Dave and Chris’s golf swings live on the podcast — identifying the setup mistakes, low-point issues, clubface problems, and swing patterns that are holding them back.

From driver swing faults and ball position to chipping technique and strike control, Chase explains why most amateur golfers struggle with contact and how small changes in setup and intention can completely change your ball striking.

This is a raw, honest and hugely relatable coaching session for any golfer trying to improve their swing without getting lost in overcomplicated technical instruction.

Topics include:

• How to stop slices with the driver
• Why golfers struggle with low point control
• The real cause of heavy chips and chunked pitch shots
• Ball position, forearm setup and shoulder alignment
• Why solid contact solves more problems than golfers think
• The difference between “feel” golfers and analytical golfers
• Why most golfers are more consistent than they realise
• How elite players control strike location on the clubface
• Simpler ways to practice golf effectively

If you’ve ever stood on the range wondering why your swing suddenly disappeared… this episode is for you.
