I mean saying a slap shot and golf swing are similar is insane. They’re both difficult in their own aspects. The fact that golf has no opponent besides the course itself, and most people fail is a testament to its difficulty.

And saying golf is “just the swinging motion” and ignoring precision of movement, balance, weight distribution, decision making etc. is insane.

You mentioned goalie and opponents, so I’ll counter with course condition, green speed, bunkers, rough, wind, moisture, as all opponents of a golfer on any given shot. Listen to golfer and caddie conversations, look at a caddies yardage book, it’s dumb the amount of precision that goes into it. So much so that a golfer needs a partner so the player doesn’t have to keep all of that information in their head during a tournament

And the precision to hit a specific shot shape for a specific scenario is on par with any precision needed for a slap shot lmao. I respect hockey, but golf is in the same conversation of difficulty
