+Fred S Glad to hear it's helped quickly. Yes, that right path with the impact bag has been an eye-opener for many slicers. Combines the two key needs into one simple impact feel!
It also makes sense that you would quickly pick up distance. Even if …

+Sam K My goal with this forum is more videos and pictures. They are easier to communicate than with words :)
I hope this helps!

+Mark C I have not seen it personally, but I just checked out the website and watched the overview video. It appears t…

+Rasmus W Your assumptions are correct. Some golfers use that pattern to play a fade. Others aim their stance a little more closed and play a draw with a closed face. In either case, the ball forward can help with the launch, but in doing so, you ha…

I like the 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 breakdown. I usually say:
1st third = mechanics
2nd third = skills
3rd third = games (scoring and consequences)
I would mix up the third section so it's not always playing on the course...but overall, it sounds like …

I think there are more golfers than you realize who love to practice as well. It's one of my favorite parts of living the golfing life.
As far as the 1.5-hour warm-up. In general, I think that's a good idea to check all your boxes and make …

+Fred S Thanks for posting your swing. Would you mind if I did a quick video discussion for the site about your swing? If you agree, can you please post a face on swing?
In the meantime, let's look at the series of checkpoints.

This video shows an animation of the foot ground reaction forces. Just looking at pressure doesn't give a lot to go off of, but looking at the direction of the forces applied …

Hi Ed,
Let's look at the pattern systematically. First, we want to decide, is the ball going right because of the face, path, or both. If we look at different locations in the swing (p1, p2, p4, p6) we can get a reasonable timeline for when the fa…

Here are three pro graphs you can look at. You'll see Elkington reaches his max earlier than Grant Waite or the other pro winner. I agree with your idea. In theory, loading the side bend later, you may have an easier time activating the hip …
