William,

I think that's a great question. Simply put, they currently provide different pieces of information, and which one you need more is probably individual. The classic metaphor used is that 2D video is like an x-ray and 3D is like an MRI. If …

The timing is still a little off. Your brain wants to continue moving down into the ball too long. In the screen capture I'm posting, I pause when you should be triggering the up movements. You'll see it's much earlier than you're doing in your rehe…

Tiger once said, "First I understand it better, then it looks better, then it feels better. Then it performs on the range, then on the course, then in a tournament".

It sounds, and looks, like you're understanding it better. Like you said, not 100…

Hey Kyle,

Welcome to the site! Thanks for posting your swing. I think you're in the right area. It looks like in your delivery position you've got the arms behind the body. But part of that is because the body (rib cage) is a little bit in the way…

Welcome back, Andrew.

I agree that it's a tough habit to break for some patterns. But it can pretty transformative too. One of the complimentary patterns to the arm stuff you're working on (internal rotation and ulnar deviation) is more of a compo…

Hi Scott,

I like the thought process. You're thinking through the problem correctly. Looking at the down-the-line snapshot looks like the face is open near shaft parallel, so some motorcycle could help (pic one).

2 other factors to consider for …

In theory, yes. Choking up on the club should influence distance.

In most sets, the difference between two clubs is about 4 degrees of loft and a half inch of length. If you look at the speed chart below, you'll see that pros swing the irons about…

Hey Gene,

Thanks for the update! Glad to hear it's helping you out. There's no that's as satisfying when you achieve breakthroughs, I'm happy that some of the ideas that have helped me and my students are able to be communicated through this platfo…

When it comes to contact, we want to tease out if it's a release problem (flip) or a transition problem (cast). To do that, let's have you hit a 9-3 (belly button height to belly button height shot) to see if the pattern is less behind you.

The fa…

AG,

Welcome back. I had some injuries and took quite some time off from playing as well. Getting back is a journey, but hopefully, we can help speed it up. As far as the fat shots, I'd start with the impact line. Looking at your impact position. Yo…

Hi AG,

Welcome to the site!

Perhaps you can tell us a little about your game. Which areas are your strengths and which areas you're trying to improve? There are a couple of things that you could focus on in your swing, so I think prioritizing depe…

I would definitely consider armpit rope swings a pivot drill (and a really good one at that). And it sounds like you're using it well as a reset drill.

To your second point, the lead arm only swing is a good pivot drill as well. It really challenge…

Well, the good news is that from a GIR perspective, you're on par with your handicap. So there's no reason you shouldn't be working to improve that as well. It would have been a really bad sign if you were more around the 10 GIR as an average. You s…

Yes, the core and the hips have a really strong direct link. If this is the picture we're trying to influence, then using the obliques, getting more of a crunch and less of a back thrust will give you a chance to have more of the external look. It w…

That's great you keep some stats. What about the GIRs? Better than 9 per round?

So far we can see that from a scoring perspective, you've got some room with your putting. Your putting stats are at about a 10-15 HCP level. Which would take some pret…
