Golf Balance at Address: Why Your Setup Could Be Hurting Your Swing | Tony Greco, Helix Golf #408

Golf Balance at Address: Why Your Setup Could Be Hurting Your Swing | Tony Greco, Helix Golf #408

Author: Karl Morris May 8, 2026 Duration: 50:34

Today on The Mind Caddie, I'm joined by Tony Greco from Helix Golf, alongside insights inspired by conversations with Helix co-founders Chris Walkey and Dr Mike Kay, whom I met at the Danish PGA Teaching Summit.

If you've been struggling with consistency, poor contact, or feeling like your golf swing requires too much effort, this episode could completely change how you think about movement, setup and balance.

Tony shares a refreshingly practical approach to golf instruction, biomechanics and efficient motion—challenging many conventional coaching ideas golfers have accepted for years.

In this episode we explore:

⛳ Why many golfers are out of balance at address without realising it
⛳ How poor centre of mass positioning can sabotage your swing before you even start
⛳ Why 90% of golfers may have their weight too far forward at setup
⛳ The dangers of overturning and forcing positions your body cannot support
⛳ Why chasing the latest golf coaching trend can damage your progress
⛳ How better movement patterns create a more natural, athletic golf swing
⛳ Why getting the start position right makes the rest of the swing easier
⛳ How improved balance frees you up to simply play golf shots

Tony's ideas are simple, logical and potentially game-changing for golfers looking to improve consistency, efficiency and ball striking.

Karl Morris has spent years working as a performance coach with some of the best golfers in Europe, and in Mind Caddie-Improve Your Mental Golf Game, he shares that expertise directly with you. This isn't just about swing thoughts or technical fixes; it's a deep, practical exploration of the psychology that dictates performance on the course. The conversation moves beyond simple positive thinking to address the real challenges players face: handling frustration after a bad hole, maintaining focus over eighteen holes, and building a resilient confidence that doesn't vanish under tournament pressure. Each episode feels like a personal session, breaking down the mental frameworks used by tour professionals into actionable strategies for any committed player. You'll hear discussions on managing expectations, creating effective pre-shot routines, and understanding how your brain can be your greatest asset or your biggest obstacle. The aim is to provide the tools that help you access your best game more often, turning those range sessions into reliable performance when it truly counts. Tune into this podcast for honest, nuanced talks that get to the heart of why we play the way we do, offering a distinct advantage that has nothing to do with new equipment and everything to do with the space between your ears.
