Inside LeverGolf
Inside LeverGolf isn’t a tips podcast — it’s a truth podcast. Each episode breaks down one “accepted” part of the traditional golf swing and shows why it leads to inconsistency, frustration, and endless compensations. Host Jim Ferreri challenges the old model, exposes the myths, and explains what actually causes golfers to struggle — without drowning you in swing thoughts. If you’ve tried every fix and it still doesn’t hold up on the course, this show will change the way you see the golf swing and point you toward a simpler, more repeatable path.
The H.I.P.S. Myth: Spin To Win, Think Again
Inside LeverGolf – Episode 8
The Hips Myth: Spin to Win? Think Again.
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri takes on one of the most aggressively taught ideas in modern golf — “clear the hips” and “spin to win.”
Golfers are told that more hip speed equals more power. So they spin harder. They fire faster. They try to create speed from the ground up.
And then the timing collapses.
Because when the hips outrun structure, the club gets stranded — and the hands are forced to rescue the swing.

The Proof Myth: One Good Round Doesn’t Mean You’ve Found
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri dismantles one of the most dangerous lies in golf improvement — the idea that one good round is proof you’ve “figured it out.”
You flush it. You score well. You think you’ve found the move.
Then the next round comes… and it’s gone.
That wasn’t proof.
That was timing.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why one great round is often a temporary align...

The Loyalty Myth: Stop Staying, Start Playing
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri takes on something golfers don’t like to admit — loyalty to a swing that isn’t loyal to them.
Golfers stay committed to the traditional swing model for years. They defend it. They justify it. They blame themselves when it doesn’t work.
They don’t leave because they think the problem is them.
But what if the relationship was flawed from the beginning?
In this episode, we break down:
• Why g...
The Distance Myth: More Greed For Speed
Inside LeverGolf – Episode 5
The Distance Myth: More Greed for Speed
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri tackles one of the most seductive beliefs in modern golf — the idea that more speed automatically means more distance.
Golfers are constantly told to rotate harder, swing faster, and “generate more power.” But chasing speed without structure creates tension, timing problems, and inconsistent contact.
And inconsistent contact destroys real distance.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why swinging harder often produces shorter, less reliable shots
• How the traditional model confuses speed...
The G.R.I.P. Myth: Fix The Grip,Fix The Trip
Inside LeverGolf – Episode 4
Grip Myth: Fix the Grip, Fix the Trip
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri takes on one of the biggest traps in golf instruction: the idea that your grip is the magic fix.
Most golfers are told, “Just strengthen it,” or “Just weaken it,” as if a tiny adjustment in the hands can rescue a swing that’s already built on a flawed traditional model.
But when the swing is unstable, grip changes don’t solve the problem — they just create different misses.
In this episode, we break...
The P.U.R.E. Truth: No Plane For Better Gain
The P.U.R.E. Truth: No Plane, For Better Gain
SUMMARY (1–2 sentences)
Jim Ferreri breaks down the “swing plane” myth and shows why chasing a perfect plane keeps golfers stuck — then explains the simpler LeverGolf approach that organizes the swing without forced positions.
DESCRIPTION (PASTE INTO PODBEAN)
Most golfers are told they need to “get on plane” — and then spend years chasing lines, angles, and positions that never hold up under pressure.
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri calls it out: the swing plane is a traditional swing model co...
The One Piece Takeaway: One Piece, No peace
In this episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri takes dead aim at one of the most repeated instructions in golf: the one-piece takeaway.
It sounds simple. It sounds clean. And it sounds “fundamental.”
But for most golfers, it’s the first domino that starts the entire chain reaction of compensation — and the reason the swing feels like a never-ending timing problem.
You’ll learn:
Why the one-piece takeaway forces the club into a position you can’t recover from consistently How it sets up a flawed traditional swi...
Breaking The Silence: The Truth They Won’t Say Out Loud
Inside LeverGolf – Episode 1: Show Expectations
In this opening episode of Inside LeverGolf, Jim Ferreri lays the foundation for everything that follows.
Before you can improve your golf swing, you must first understand what you expect from it.
Most golfers are chasing positions, tips, and quick fixes. But expectations shape performance. If your expectations are built on a flawed traditional model, frustration becomes inevitable.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why most swing struggles are rooted in unrealistic expectations
• The difference between mechanical chasing and athletic sequencing
• Why consistenc...
