Hi Ryan,

Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you found the site also! Now let's see if we can help you improve your low point control. Looking at your swing, there are a lot of good components. (Arm extension in follow through, centeredness of pivo…

I like what the wrists and arms are doing in the first set of videos, especially this first DTL clip.

Unfortunately, the golf swing is a complex blend of pieces. I think the next piece is to go after the top of the backswing. I have a couple of st…

I think the lead arm doing an anti-pull is a good feel for a lot of golfers who get steep. Here's a video I did on that topic, https://www.golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/block-trail-arm-throw/

It's hard to get the ulnar piece if you don't ha…

No worries. Since the swing is a 3D motion, it's helpful to see how the pieces fit. In general, I think about 70% of the swing is better to see from face on, so down the line only is leaving a lot of helpful information out of the equation.

Lookin…

Hi Ben, do you have a face on by any chance? I have some ideas but want to confirm a couple of things first. There's always hope for fixing it :)

Looking forward to helping you figure it out,

Tyler

Since the pattern on the graphs looks pretty similar, I wouldn't stress about the overall value. The frame rate on the hack motion means that there are only a handful of frames right near impact, so the value can change without your swing changing m…

Hi Albert,

Great timing of your question. I actually just posted a video relating to this topic. https://www.golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/firm-lead-foot/

In the first picture, it looks like you've already lost the big toe connection and m…

Funny. I don't get tired of it, but I do keep it in context. I've learned from my students that feels can change dramatically day-to-day and the same "feel" can look different in sequential days. So our feels need frequent checks and calibrations.

Sorry about the cut-off wrist. I don't have a great home studio yet for filming those quick responses.

I would usually start with some follow-through holds to work on the ulnar. Or the trail hand shot put to get the feeling of doing it dynamically.…

Thanks for the video, it helps clear some things up. Here's a quick video response to keep you moving forward until I can film a "trail arm line" video in the near future.

Let me know if you have any other questions about the topic,

That would help. The site has lots of drills, so yes, we have lots of options to get you to try and feel more of a body hit and less of an arm hit. But I'm trying to figure out what didn't click with the first attempt.

Another good drill for you m…

Feels can be very individual, but my guess is that your unhinge isn't going to feel passive. It's going to feel active. But one thing that could make it feel less active is more of the thoracic extension (chest bump). That gets more vertical pressur…

I hope we can get you to a place where you are happier with the release. One thing to understand is the roll of the shoulders and how they link up with the wrists. To help me, can you post a face on swing? If you have the single-arm drills, that can…

Happy to help Jason. I do like to see all the angles released after impact in a full swing. It helps with the flat spot, arc width, and club face closure speed. But the question becomes how do you do that?

A couple questions about your current phil…

Hi Jason,

During my studies of AMM 3D I was lucky enough to be able to see, and study, many of the top golfers at the top. I've been able to study both Rory and Jordan Speith, and I'd say that they have more similarities than differences. They shar…
