Catching up.

With the question, "is this proper bracing?" See the first picture, you're upper body is behind the lower body, which could have low point issues or still have more hook tendencies. Perhaps the two-bucket station could help your axis …

Hey Gene,

Yes, I'd say that the weight shift in the 9-3 can be a barrier for some. I think it's best to either preset the weight at the start or make the backswing slightly more leftward-biased than normal. Personally, I set the weight a little mo…

Hi Garrett,

Thanks for the videos. They help.

With the driver, I think the early extension and trail arm being fully straight at impact is the big cause of the hook pattern. You can see in the first picture, compared to the spine angle I drew at…

Hi Alfred,

There are some good pieces, but I can see where you might be struggling a little bit. As you indicated, in the supination video you posted secondly, there's actually a good amount of shaft lean, especially considering how square your hi…

Yes, I haven't done too many analysis videos lately, but I can get back on some. Lucas Glover has a fun swing to break down, but I think Scottie Scheffler is the first on the list!

If you look at the screenshots, when you do the drill/practice swing and create shaft lean, the clubface is about 20 degrees open. It's even open about a foot past impact. Then when you make the actual swing, you break down that left arm. It could b…

Hi Dave,

I think you'll get the most bang for the buck from working on your release, but that can mean doing shorter and slower swings, which not every golfer loves doing.

In the driver swing recording, you'll see the shoulders pull around the b…

Hey Zach,

Way to push forward. A couple of comments about the posts. I appreciated reading the last post the state of your game. I'm thrilled that you've dialed in a bunch of the skills.

Changing power sources is one of the hardest elements. I t…

If I'm looking for one picture that worries me about that pattern, it's this position here. It's part of the steep early, shallow late pattern that causes the block/hook combo. Because you have a stronger grip, you're more prone to the hook side of …

Hey Zach,

That's a good topic. I can film a video on it. In general, I think that the exit plane is something you can monitor, but focusing on it often leads to poor matchups. As you said, a common request is to swing more left. Often, golfers tol…

Yes, it's easy to fake a lot of things and get close. Hitting really good shots here and there, but if the misses are big, then we typically have a deficiency that we're masking. It's hard to get to scratch with too many of those movements, so seems…

Yes, a forward press can make the starting number closer to zero than 20. I'd look at the number in live mode and see if it's closer to 20 before the forward press. If that's the case, then I wouldn't worry about it.

For the top of the swing quest…

Thanks for the quick summary :D

Yes, the blue pants looks like a more "stable" release.

If you can do it without the ball, but struggle with it, often times it's tied to a body movement. I know you just gave up on the pivot (for now) but that cou…

Hi Garrett,

Based on your description, especially the iron issues, I would probably start with a face on video instead of down the line. From the down the line, it looks like a version of steeper upper body motion and more shallow lower body motio…

No worries about the rambling posts, sometimes that's what is needed to process all the crazy thoughts we're running through!

Wrist video:
I like the second version better, it's still lacking some arm rotation while it ulnar deviates, so it looks a…
