Is there a way to tell what is causing my pulls? Besides going on Trackman? I just want to know if I need to work on my path or if it's a clubface issue. I pull almost all my woods, duck hook driver from time to time, but hit my mid to short irons pretty straight. Thanks for any help!

Is there an easy way to see all of Brian's videos on Golf.com? I've searched "Brian Manzella" and also "Big Play", but I only get a few videos.

I've been playing pretty well keeping my lead arm "relatively" pinned to my chest and just out tossing as hard as I can. This means I don't actively try to pull the shaft with my lead arm. My mishits are way way more manageable, but I've lost half a club because the trajectory seems to be higher...

because his AoA is greater than most pros? But he's also a club longer than a lot of the pros, so to get that height and distance he must have a remarkable SS? Wondering what his impact numbers are like compared to other pros...

Besides working on our golf swings, does anyone do another type of physical training specifically for the golf swing? I used to think that flexibility was more important than strength in the golf swing, but after reading that thread on handle rotation, I think I should try to build strength...

I know it's hard to diagnose a swing without seeing it on video, but just wondering if anyone can help me with my iron game. I've been hitting weak slices that go about 3/4 of their normal distance and slice about 5-10 yards. They start straight and then balloon/slice. The courses I've been...

Can you hit a pull slice with a clubface open relative to the path? I read somewhere that you can but I really don't see how that happens?

Playing around with the different left wrist positions at the top of my backswing, I realized if I erred on the side of more cup, the New Release was a thousand times easier to do. Coming from the old drag-the-handle school of thought, I had a very flat, if not arched wrist at the top. While...

I learned that when I can "let go", my swing is a thousand times better. I've been working on the "release" indoors recently and things are clicking. I use the Pelz practice balls which are fairly dense since it feels better than most other practice balls. Being indoors, if I miss hit it too...

I've read on this forum and others that hitting up on a driver is less controlled. Or in other words that to get maximum distance hit up but for control hit down. I don't know what that means? Like is there more room for error when hitting down? Or does hitting up on a driver cause the ball to...

Often times when you see a pro hit an iron shot, they'll finish like it was half swing, yet they'll fly an 8 iron 180 yds. If I were trying to get my 8 iron to go even 150 yds my finish wouldn't look like that. What's stopping the clubhead enough that they can control the finish like they do...

I've dedicated this winter to improving my golf swing. I bought a P3Pro, which reads clubhead info, and simulates ball flights from that. Anyway, just been tooling around with my swing a lot and I realized that my biggest flaw is that my hands always want to go towards the ball during the...

I'm working really hard on my swing this winter and I've realized that some days I have a flat shoulder turn and some days it gets way steeper. For the flat turn, I concentrate on keeping the face very square and then turn away and turn through. For the steeper turn, on the downswing, I try...
