I have been hooking my longer clubs but hitting my irons fair. I bought NHA 3, watched it 3 times so far and went out and played 18 early this morning. I hit some fair shots but nothing to crow too much about. On the last couple holes I bent over a bit more and focused on driving my rear...

I have a problem that keeps coming back again and again. I believe my head moves forward on the down swing. I hit many shanks with the irons on all types of shots from a few yards to full shots. It does not affect my driver as much but most other clubs it does. When I really try to stay behind...

I have been trying to keep my elbows close together and somewhat pointed down at set up. My thought for the back swing is to keep them close together. In Hogans Five Lessons he advocates pointing the elbows towards the hip bones and feeling like they were bound together. It appears Tim Clark...

I went to tne course yesterday to work on some pitch shots and found out they are oficially opening Thursday. The forecast for Friday is looking good. After reading some posts somewhere about right forearm takeaway vs: shoulder turn takeaway I realized that somewhere, somehow, over the winter...

What would be some good drills to get to the proper backswing position then turning the shoulder on plane down through impact? If it matters I am a swinger not a hitter. Steve

Brian When we were in Orlando you gave us a group bunker lesson. You demonstrated the short greenside shots and the longer 20 yard or more shots. Could you put up a video short recaping that demonstration. How to hit the high soft shot, the low running shot, and the long bunker shots? Steve

I know this is a hot topic with Brian and others, but I have a question about it. I was hitting some balls in the local dome Friday. I was hitting them very solid but pulling most of them to the left, even the short pitch shots. After some experimentation I found if I kept my head still I was...

I've seen Brians twistaway move mentioned many times but I don't see where it is explained. I did a search and did not see it. Where is the twistaway explained? Steve

Is it easier to use the elbow plane or right forearm plane vs: the right shoulder plane as a downswing plane? Is it better? Steve

I've noticed many of you attaching "quotes" from posts you are replying to. How is that done? I have looked for that as an option when I reply but have not found it! Steve

I believe I would be classified as a swinger rather than a hitter. I have read that good thoughts from the top for a swinger would be a left hand karate chop toward the ball or keeping the right palm facing the swing plane. How does this fit with the tracing the plane line top the ball with PP...

I just finished reading the perfect pivot series in the instruction forum. Very enlightening!! Can I assume these basics are equally applicable to hitting and swinging? I sure wish I could hit some balls outside.
