    Ball question

    Hello forum members I was hoping you all could help me with something. I keep hearing that the current ball goes farther (proportionately) the higher your swing speed.

    Aiming right

    Hello all, A few years ago this was discussed but I don't think Brian ever gave his reason why? Why do most golfers aim right and how do you fix it? You would think due to the slice they would aim left but most people that I play with have very closed shoulders and stance and can never seem...
