Article at golf.com reviewing all the world #1's and what made them great by some of the current top 100 teachers. Brian reviews David Duval. I'd say another feather in the cap for Brian in his ascent to the top. LINK -> What the former golf world No. 1s can teach you about your golf game -...

Have never played a tournament in my life. Playing to a 9 handicap right now. Not getting any younger so I want to try to play some organized tournaments through our county golf association. We just had the county amateur and I walked with one of the better threesomes just to get a...

Here we are winding down 2010. I started this year still trying the pure swinging pattern. Just could not get consistent with it. Committed to a pivot pattern in late spring and…thanks to this website, I managed to have the best year of my golfing life which has now spanned over 30 years...

The self proclaimed 55 handicap with the $2500 clubs. The whole thread is gone. I for one thought that had real potential as a Manzella rags to riches story. Did he turn out as some kind of troll or something or is there something indeed in the works with this guy?

I'm always fascinated by all the stuff that happens behind the scenes and to be sure, I have no clue about all the details involved in entering and playing a PGA or Nationwide event. So here's a few from-the-hip questions. For those in the know, feel free to fill in the numerous gaps. How do...

It's been the best year of my golfing life thanks to Brian & Co. Snuck a few rounds into the mid 70's after having never broke 80 prior. So now looking into other areas of playing golf, not golf swing. And one which I believe I truly stink at is course management. Example: Par 4, about a 45...

Just wondering what you guys do in terms of maintaining your clubs. I pretty much just clean my irons with a soft brush and water. I wax the top and bottom of my woods periodically (of course not the face). And no storing in the trunk. That's pretty much it. Anything else to do to extend...

Thinking a lot about my swing lately as I am struggling to regain my mid summer form. At that time, I broke 80 for the first time followed by 2 more with a low of 76. Been downhill ever since and I'm back to mid 80's mediocrity. Ever since I can remember, I am always tweaking some body part...

Face control has become my white whale. Try as I might, I just cannot latch on to a consistent means to decrease my considerable shot dispersion range. As an example, went to the range yesterday and hit maybe 20 drives. The tee was laid flat pointing EXACTLY at the target ON EVERY ONE and I...

Sand shots have not been my strength over the years but Brian's Over and Out has certainly helped. I at least now have a stock sand shot from normal, dry sand. Howver, I still struggle with unusual sand conditions. What technique/club adjustments does one make when playing out of: 1. Soft...

The official definition of talent is "a special natural ability or aptitude". So what natural ability or aptitude do high level golfers possess that sets them apart? Sensing where the sweet spot is at all times? Superior motor control? More in tune with what their bodies are doing? Hand-eye...

First observation is the climbing of the Manzella Mountain of Knowledge. I saw this place up in the clouds and after a few months here and a few videos, I thought I knew what was what with the golf swing. But after reaching this place, the clouds cleared and I realized I was standing in what’s...

After seeing how bad I was flipping, I'm really focusing on half swings with a FLW per CoFF. Swinging with hands maybe just above waist high and the results have been good...BUT...I really feel my right arm snapping straight at about 10:30 position after contact (ball is 12:00). I've developed...

The squeamish should look away... Impact position doesn't look too bad but I see some OTT and a whole lotta flippin going on. That amazes me because my arms and hands really feel passive. How would you fix all this? :( Also based on what you see, what pattern would be best? I have COFF...

Playing with the weekend buddies, we just avoid each other's the direct line on the green but I see pros avoiding other player's through line past the hole as well. What's the protocol for this? Do you give 2 feet past, 3? More? Do most of you employ this in your regular friendly outings?

Since being here, I've been fascinated with body pivot power and then wondered if the same mechanisms were used in what seemingly was super human martial arts feats. Good read (but long) Generating Power in Martial Arts: A Martial Arts and Close Quarter Combat Skills article from Dragon Door...

Bear in mind I’m only 10 days and few hundred range balls into blowing up my old swing and trying the concepts presented here but I am very pleased with what I’ve seen so far. I know this is an important time for me since you are only new to something once and it is obviously critical to try to...

My name is Festus and I suck at golf - (Everyone…”Hi, Festus”) I’m 46 years old and have been playing since my early teens. I was half decent back then, low to mid 80’s, with a good tee to green game and a hideous short game. Took about a 10 year break in my 30’s and now am back at it. My...
