Lately, after using a strong grip, I have kept my left hand in a strong position and moved my right hand on top of the club. I seem to be hitting a nice draw but lower and good distance but wonder what some think/opinions of this type of grip.

I have been working on more coil by keeping my left heel down on backswing and if anything rolling onto the instep a little. A few of the pro's I play with claim it doesn't matter that much but I swear I have gained 20 yards with driver and my swing is spot on balance with nice finish. No...

As I continue to work on various points of my swing I have been noticing an increasing feeling with driver that I can actually feel the ball compressing against the driver face. As I drop my arms into the slot with the driver, I just allow the uncoiling without forcing anything and I feel the...

is scraping right side of chin on throughswing lately, anyone hazard a guess what is happening? Thanks

as you know, I am not a student of TGM but I do like to keep the hands and arms very passive and especially driver at top I pause slightly, not so anyone but me notices but it allows(I think)my lower body to go ahead of my upper which drops me into the slot. I used to pull drivers once in awhile...

Here's my first and last post regarding other sites. Periodically I will go to Golf tuition or some other site and frankly, they are lame, infrequently visited, and usually a source of extremely poor advice which the unsuspecting novice will take to heart. Shame on you who post on these sites as...

Hey, can a guy get some help here? I posted a simple question regarding a case of the pulls with the driver among an otherwise very sound 3-4 hcp. golf swing and not one of you "gurus" seem to want to tackle this question. I am well aware of ball position, swing path, alignment and other faults...

Suddenly started pulling with driver. Here are some facts: Hdcp of 4 Average distances: driver 275; 8 iron 155; 6 iron 180 ball flight: boring, medium trajectory, straight Grip: 3 knuckles left hand; finger grip both hands with grip under heel pad of left Good shoulder turn Driver ball position...

Forget Hogan, what about Tiger and his erratic playing and swing?

I have been trying to keep my lower body quiet other than moving my left knee in on the backswing. By doing this, I seem to be very balanced, can just turn the shoulders and lift the club from a toe up position to finish backswing. I always feel when doing this with driver that I am not behind...

I would like some feedback on the following things I have been doing: 1. completing my back swing, especially with driver 2. very light grip allowing my wrists to cock naturally with no thought at all 3. turning my left shoulder behind the ball on backswing 4. keeping my lower body relatively...

Another golf channel fiasco. I understand they were setting the criteria at handicap of 1 or better. Give me a big break! None of those guys on the first break were a 1, more like 10-15+. Where do they get these guys and worst of all, why would they think they belong on TV. Lousy golf...

I hate the golf channel. I would like to see someone start another golf channel to compete with it. There is never anything worth a damn on the channel and its all ads, nonstop. Anyone know how to start a golf channel where meaningful instruction could take place; I could get the investors if...

from someone who has come through the many years of playing to finally achieving satisfaction with MY swing versus the guru's(sorry Brian, I am really referring to lead, flick,smith, and etc). It wasn't until I started focusing on turning my left shoulder to its maximum that my swing and results...

I posted this on another part of this forum but just in case no one reads it, I would like anyone with similar sensations to respond. Here it is: When I make the transition from the top, there is a sensation that is hard to describe but here goes: its like I'm reorienting my body into a squat...
