Steve asked if I could clarify when you want to do the crunch move in the downswing. This video talks through some of the key benefits from being more flexed in the downswing.

If you're worried about getting your hands too high at impact, pay attention to this video!

If you struggle with wedge distance control, look at solid contact and loft control.

Here's a video discussion, hopefully this helps clear things up for you.

The down the line has a lot of really good elements, so let's focus on the face on for where we might be struggling.

When it comes to consistency iron contact and more compression, I like to look at the low point line. From the face on view, looki…

I talked to a couple of coaches I think do a great job with putting. Here are a couple of guidelines for you:
- Putter face +/- .4 degrees at impact
- Putter path +/- 2 degrees (but the consistency of the path is WAY more important than the value)
-…

Jerry used to come out and play our course frequently. We have a no guest policy in effect right now, but I'm sure when things open back up again he'll be back. Maybe I'll see if the request for help is a serious one then ;)

I'll have to look into the face and path ranges for you. I know that on Trackman tour pros are usually +/- .5 degrees of the intended read. On a ten foot putt, if you are off by more than .5% either way you would miss the edge of the cup. The start …

Kevyn, I think you're in the right ballpark. See if my video helps add any direction :)

Your arms have a steep look to them, but you keep your body closed to help balance that out. If your body s…

Hi Matt,

Glad you're enjoying the content. As with everything golf-related, I like to have a plan. Not knowing anything about your swing, I would normally attack distance by addressing the following questions:
Am I maximizing my current speed?
What…

The longer the swing, the more it benefits from powering the swing with lower body rotation. Looking at the video, it appears to be more of an upper-body dominant swing. Your weight ends up more into the toes at this point, which is a sign of more o…

Yes, on a short swing (like 9-3 swings) the pressure would have already been shifted to the front foot. So it's better to preset the pressure and go from there!

Fixed it! Thanks!

You're welcome. Glad you're eliminating the left, we'll look at the push next time. Good luck managing the heat on your end!
