    Beating OTT Once and For All... Stuck Again.

    Hey folks, It's been a while since I posted but I always have a look around. The season is done here as snow hits the ground and I reflected back on a mediocre season (my 3rd). I never hit modest goals I had and when I look back the number one culprit was coming over the top. That over the top...

    The Exceptional Driving Championship

    Hey folks, Did anyone catch this last night on the G-channel? I was eating supper and it came on and basically it's your typical long ball/driver challenge except you get more points for accuracy. So hitting it deep on the 'grid' may get you points, but hitting it consistently straight and...

    Question about my instructor.

    So I bet this is a first on this forum.... I am wondering if I am getting 'good' or 'solid' instruction from my current instructor. I'll call him 'Bob' for the sake of this conversation. Firstly, I should back up a bit. Obviously I am a fan of Brian's materials and I learned a lot from NSA...

    The 'Truth' About Power. Fighting Some Myths... help wanted.

    I pose this question to anyone who knows their stuff, because quite frankly, as a newish golfer, I'm tired of gimmicks...weighted clubs, speed sticks, etc, etc. (Not that I've bought most of them..) I have a few random thoughts that I'd love -real- answers for. I can't think of a better forum...

    More than one way to hit a slice... wow I think I over 'cured' myself

    I've been working hard on path correction via NSA 2.0. I still go to the range, or start a round and I have to concentrate, or should I say consciously emphasize the idea of letting the club drop down, then turning my shoulders later in the swing... this is at the beginning of all my rounds...

    Trying to stick out NSA. Simple question?

    Okay, here we go. ;) I have been back on NSA hardcore for a few weeks. I've started scoring lower, but something creeps into my swing and I can't figure it out. This has *only* happened to me since sticking with the fundamentals of NSA.... twist away, hold, twist to target line, striking...

    Swing Video

    Hey folks. Nothing important, I just thought I'd post because a few people have asked to see my swing here. I only had an older one... about 6+ months old here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2I44m-XTmg Well I got a new instructor. The first lesson was a little rough. It set me back a lot...

    Some Quick NSA Questions

    Hey guys, I've gone back to pure NSA style swinging, and leaving the draw stuff alone for a while, and I've come up with some repeatable errors, and questions I hope to figure out. I'll try to be brief and concise. 1. Does anyone else find that using 'twist away/twist to' the target only works...

    So I broke down and bought a training gizmo...

    I'm kinda ashamed to admit it, but I broke down and bought one of those doo-hickey things that make you hit the ball from the inside. I don't want to advertise it or anything so I won't mention product names, etc. As I have gone through the NSA 2.0 program, a lot of my game did improve. In fact...

    Do you trust your swing this much...?

    In my ongoing quest to attack the ball with an inside swing, I often like to look at Vijay's swing. It's one of my favorites. Last winter my instructor tried to get me to trust my swing enough to leave the club this far behind him (as opposed to the over the top chop!) Vijay w/Driver...

    A bit more 'post' NSA troubleshooting...(sorry, long post)

    Hey folks, Just a recap before I explain what I'm working with so it makes a bit more sense. I was hugely impressed with NSA, and noticed instantaneous results. However, shortly after I started doing weird things with my swing by -over- emphasizing the twist. I started concentrating so much on...

    Anyone have trouble 'trusting' a neutral grip?

    Hey folks, I just finished a weekend of massive golfing content. It was fun but I realized as my shooting was degrading in quality a bit, that my grip was slowly getting stronger, and stronger! When I caught this habit, I would slowly do an NSA style twistaway, and by the time I'd get back to...

    NSA Troubleshooting- I'm a tad stumped.

    So there I was enjoying the best couple of rounds of my life after watching, and practicing NSA many times in the last week or so. But as easily as it seemed to come to me, the swing has left the building... at least in part. I'm wondering if anyone can help me trouble shoot this. I don't want...

    NSA: Does it tackle 'Over the top'?

    Greets, First post, but I've been lurking for quite a while. I have a few quick mechanical questions to any NSA experts. Firstly, I'd like to say that I take regular instruction from an excellent golfer. I trust him quite a bit. That being said I am a habitual slicer... with driver...
