Was fortunate enough to get the new AISensor Mat so was looking forward to have founder Terry Hashimoto on the pod. Terry was the cofounder of BodiTrak and is a pioneer of pressure mapping in the feet.

Understanding the difference between pressure and weight/mass is critical to having an efficient coil in the backswing. The AiSensor Matt takes the guess work out of wondering where your pressure is moving. More on Terry and AiSensor in the link below.

Had a really cool discussion with golfing legend Peter Senior. We mainly chatted about the swing changes he made with his coach Gary Edwin and the drills he did to accomplish ten changes.

In 1978, Senior turned professional. He joined the PGA Tour of Australasia shortly thereafter. During his career, he has won 21 tournaments on the tour, including the Australian PGA Championship in 1989, 2003 and 2010, the Australian Open in 1989 and 2012, and the Australian Masters in 1991, 1995, and 2015. Senior has won professional events on the main men's tour in five separate decades, a feat achieved by very few players previously anywhere in the world. He also has the distinction of winning the Australian PGA, Open and Masters tournaments after he turned 50. He also topped the tour's Order of Merit in 1987, 1989 and 1993. Even after reaching the age of fifty, he remained competitive on the tour, through until his retirement from golf in 2016
