    Help . . . me lower my Vertical Swing Plane

    I had a lesson with Brian back in Oct and the main thing we worked on was lowering my Vertical Swing Plane . . . it was apparently off the charts steep. Brian described it as way too much "tumble." He had me laying the club off in the backswing to help shallow out the shaft . . . I'm still...

    alignment. . .alignment. . .alignment. . .

    I've been playing poorly for a couple of months, and finally have come to realize that it's mainly my alignment. Body aligned 50 yards to the left isn't the best way to set up (at least not for me). No wonder I was hooking it off the planet. Anyway, the last few "dry spells" I've hit have...

    How good is the worst putter on tour?

    If they played at my local course would I think they were unbelievable? Or, would it be more like, "yeah, he rolls it well." I know a couple of guys who can really putt, especially from inside 10ft, would they be close, or would it be no contest? Are the one or two really good putters at...

    Holy Grail of Golf Swings?

    While there are many different ways to swing a golf club, it seems to me there are two main camps. One way to swing is more dependent on the hands and arms squaring the club face. The other way is to square the face with the body, or so-called "bigger muscles." Now this is just my...

    Go App State!!!

    Brian, Thanks for your instruction and generosity on this site. . . but as an app state man I had to razz you a bit before Sat's game. . . especially since LSU is probably going to pound us. Anyway, if you go to the game, enjoy, and show a little mercy on the mountaineers. jeff
