What if the reason you keep slicing the golf ball isn’t what you think it is? And what if the extra distance you’ve been searching for isn’t inside the latest $600 driver—but locked inside your body?

This week on Next on the Tee, PGA Professional Brian Klocek and TPI-certified golf fitness specialist Shaun Diachkoff help us uncover ways to play better golf without chasing another swing thought or buying another piece of equipment.

Brian is the Director of Golf at Totteridge Golf Course in Greensburg, PA, and he shares a simple range drill that can help chronic slicers quiet an overactive upper body, improve their sequencing, and start hitting straighter shots. We also talk about how colder temperatures affect distance, what to wear so you stay warm without restricting your swing, and what makes their Rees Jones-designed Totteridge Golf Course such a special public golf experience in Western Pennsylvania.

And yes—we finally discover the secret behind the Totteridge hot dog that Gus Frerotte and his sons voted the best at the turn in the region.

Then Shaun Diachkoff asks us to look at our golf swing from a completely different perspective.

Sometimes the swing flaw you’ve spent years trying to fix isn’t really a swing problem at all—your body may simply be unable to get into the position you’re asking of it.

Shaun explains how limitations in the hips, thoracic spine, and shoulders can rob us of rotation, speed, consistency, and distance. He walks us through his approach to identifying those restrictions, restoring mobility, building strength, and ultimately creating more speed.

Plus, we get practical advice for staying loose during cold-weather rounds and what you can start doing this offseason to prepare your body for better golf in 2027.

Better movement. Straighter shots. More speed. More distance. And no new driver required.

Thank you for pressing play and joining me on Next on the Tee—where golf legends live and your game gets better.
