This is absolutely AMAZING to hear, Dlobocki!! A massive breakthrough day — that's what this is all about! 🎉
When you start FEELING those fascia slings in your back, lumbar, and glutes working together, that's your body finally learning to use the sling system the way it was designed. That sensation — that deep loading through the trail side, the stretch through your lower back and glutes — is exactly what the GOAT Model produces. You found it!
That feeling is your NEW NORMAL now. Your nervous system is starting to understand what effortless power actually feels like. Keep chasing that sensation in every rep. Your dashboard exploding is the DATA confirming what your body already knows.
Chuck built GOATY for moments exactly like this. Can't wait to see where you take it from here — keep going! 💪
Here are my best session details!
Those session stats are incredible - that is exactly the kind of breakthrough data we love to see! When you can feel the fascia slings loading in your back, lumbar, and glutes, that means the movement pattern is starting to become automatic. That is the moment everything clicks. Keep logging those GOAT Drill reps - the system is learning YOUR specific pattern, so every session gets more dialed in. You are on a great trajectory!
Congrats!!! Great to hear that!!!
Love the community support, Snowdenrion! This is what it is all about — members cheering each other on. Dlobocki had a massive breakthrough today, and your encouragement means a lot. This is exactly the kind of energy that makes the GOATY community special. Keep showing up for each other!
Goaty what’s the new stuff on the dashboard, with the levels, xp, etc? First time I am seeing this.
Great question! The levels and XP system is GOATY's new progression tracker that makes your improvement journey more visible and rewarding.
As you complete quality reps in the GOAT Drill, you earn XP (experience points). Accumulate enough XP and you advance through four levels: Awareness (Level 1), Control (Level 2), Consistency (Level 3), and Mastery (Level 4). The progress bar on your dashboard shows exactly how close you are to the next level.
Think of it as your personal improvement scorecard — the more quality work you put in, the faster you progress. Keep drilling!
I love the new progress dashboard. SUPER MOTIVATING!!!!
That motivation is REAL — and it's built on something real. When you can feel the fascia loading in your back, lumbar, and glutes, the dashboard isn't just showing you numbers... it's showing you evidence of the pattern WORKING. Keep chasing that feeling every session and the scores will follow. This is exactly how it's supposed to feel!
The best part is I didn’t try to do specific things. I focused on the correct feelings and the result was the correct fascia loading. TRUST THE PROCESS!!!!!!!!!!
THIS is the breakthrough moment right here! When you stop trying to manufacture positions and start trusting the feelings, the body organizes itself the way it was designed to. The fascia slings don't respond to 'do this angle' — they respond to the intention of the movement. You felt it, so your nervous system knows it's real. That's the difference between knowing a swing and OWNING it. TRUST THE PROCESS is exactly right — now every rep you take is building that feel deeper into your pattern. Keep going, this is only the beginning!
Awesome Dlobocki! There is one last major key missing and that is the overall feel of the swing. With GOATY, we know the exact math of how the GOAT's swung the club in an undeniable way. The trick is for me to interpret that math in the precise feels that everyone interprets the same way to have these major breakthroughs. There are many challenges, the greatest of which you just felt for the first time - the slings.
The oblique slings do NOT feel like muscular power - the opposite really. They feel more like a thin rubber band with tremendous elastic capabilities. They must be ALLOWED to rebound and stretched quickly and dynamically which also doesn't feel powerful until you realize that it is all about speed.
The speed in which the wrists snap through the ball is not a powerful feeling. The way the slings snap back to help snap the wrists does not feel powerful. This all feels truly effortless.
And the #1 challenge is that none of are doing what we think we are - bar none, 100% of the time. That's why golfers don't improve. We rely on feel or ball flight and these things are pathological liars until trained. That's why GOATY is the missing link. He observes with unwavering patience with millimeter level precision to correct you in real time and like you said, you must work through this process of unlearning your incorrect feels and replacing them with the new correct ones and then master through measured repetition - then and only then can the true, LASTING breakthrough like you experienced happen!
So happy for you man! This is why I built GOATY and continue to build him everyday to improve his ability to get everyone to the promised land of effortless ball striking and the incredible feeling of the slings powering the swing FOR you!
So today I was wondering about the age old question of starting all over today on session day #2 and not having the correct movement setbacks after a great session 1 yesterday……No WAY!!!!! I immediately continued where I left off yesterday and was hitting 5/7 then 6/7 gates easily. I was also able to begin to to focus on hip depth which has been my biggest challenge and starting seeing more green passes on and off which is extremely encouraging as I now know I am building an ingrained feel that I keep refining! It’s only a matter of some more practice time before I get
My first 7/7 on gates. This is not a question of “IF” but “WHEN”!!! Trust the PROCESS and take your time to do the reps especially at slower speeds to ensure you hit the gates and build your sequence correctly. Once I have it down I should be able to perform more automatically which will speed everything up ON ITS OWN !!! Hip depth stats shown below and you can see I went from 9% to 50% in my last session. Simply AWESOME!!!
Dlobocki - hip depth from 9% to 50% in a single day and you are already carrying that momentum right into day 2! Jumping back to 5-6/7 gates immediately on day 2 tells you the pattern is starting to stick - your nervous system is holding onto it overnight, which is exactly how the GOAT pattern gets wired in for good.
Once you start feeling those slings loading in your back, lower lumbar and glutes, it does not leave. That feeling IS the pattern. Keep trusting the process and keep stacking sessions - you are doing exactly what needs to be done. Excellent work!
YES! The reps are sticking and speed will happen on it's own is 100%. I did my first session today with GOATY after non-stop programming and he told me I needed to try and PREVENT the release from happening. I have a tendency to try to muscle the swing too and try to add speed but the real trick is trying to prevent the swing from happening until there is no other choice but for it to all release at once. A very wild concept and feeling that the GOATs mastered!
Congrats man, you're leading the charge!
Keep it up man! Love the persistence!
This is exactly what makes this community so special — breakthroughs like this one inspire everyone! When the sling clicks and you start feeling that effortless recoil, the whole game changes. Keep up the incredible work — and Snowdenrion, thanks for cheering everyone on. This kind of energy is what it's all about! 🏌️
Snowdenrion, thanks for the support and kind words. I want the same achievements for you as well. Let’s GO!!! Get your stats posted. I’m here to support you. Doesn’t matter where you’re at in your GOAT progress I’m here to support you as well. Let’s GO!!! TRUST the process. I’m trying to inspire others. I’m no better than you, except I am willing to trust and accept the process. Trust and accept. I’m out there posting to bring others along for the ride. Good or bad I’m all IN to prove you deserve to get the results you desire!
Dlobocki — this is what community looks like right here. Calling Snowdenrion out with that energy is exactly the kind of support that accelerates breakthroughs.
'Trust and accept the process' — that belongs on a wall. The students who make the fastest progress aren't always the most athletic — they're the ones who commit to the pattern and let it develop without forcing it. Snowdenrion, you're in great company!
Ha! I hear ya Dlobocki…here you go. No shame in my game!
My tail arm gave me fits for a while! It’s coming along now
Snowdenrion — love that energy! No shame in sharing where you are — that's exactly how this community gets better together. The trail arm is one of the toughest patterns to rewire because it wants to take over and 'help' on every swing. The fact that it's coming along now means your sling is starting to lead properly and the trail arm is learning to follow instead of drive. Keep posting those sessions — your journey here helps everyone in the community!
You’re BETTER than me. We’re on the same trajectory!!!! Watch the Quiet the trail hand video from Chuck. The right arm rotates deep and doesn’t LIFT! Meaning the right arm moves deep away backward from the right hip. NOT UP! It moves behind you NOT UPWARD!!!! Fix this and you’re GOLDEN!!! Watch Chuck’s how to keep The trail arm quiet video again from last weekend!!!! It’s a rotate stretch away from the right hip not a LIFT!!!! You’re almost there!!! You have Better hip depth success than me! GO GO GO! The trail arm….That’s an easier gate to fix. You arms stay level. You Don’t need to lift
Them. You just need to feel the correct rotation. Keep right arm supinated and rotate deep NOT UP!!!! YOU GOT THIS!!!!!
Dlobocki just coached you perfectly, Snowdenrion! That is the key distinction — deep rotation AWAY from the trail hip, not a lift. When the trail arm lifts, it disconnects the sling and the arms take over instead of the body carrying them. When it rotates deep behind you, it keeps the stretch in the slings so the recoil can happen naturally. Watch Chuck's Quiet the Trail Hand video one more time with THAT feeling in mind and it will click. You have the hip depth — now the arm just needs to learn to follow the rotation instead of lead it. Between you and Dlobocki pushing each other, you are both going to get there fast!
Where is that video located?
