The Swing Is the Output: Rebuilding the System That Drives It

Your swing isn’t just a set of mechanical moves — it’s the output of your entire system: your mindset, preparation, fitness, skill, and recovery. In this episode, Dan Houle explains why traditional “fix the flaw” approaches often fail, and how FUNCTIONAL.GOLF uses the Four Domains of Performance — Fitness & Movement, Skill Development, Performance & Mental Models, and Recovery & Longevity — to uncover root causes.
You’ll hear how a 9-handicap player’s slump wasn’t a swing problem at all, but a mental pattern that eroded his commitment. With a systems audit, you can spot breakdowns before they derail performance.
The companion worksheet, “The Swing Is the Output: Rebuilding My System,” helps you assess each domain, identify hidden drivers of inconsistency, and commit to one small, high-impact change. When you train your system — not just your swing — you build lasting, reliable performance.
