Something I have been fooling with, and I thought it might make a good discussion topic. Watching footage of great players (Hogan, Palmer, Nicklaus, Nelson, Vardon, Jones, etc) I noticed they all share a setup peculiarity. They all "pump" the club in the setup, maintaining a slight elbow flex...

Not sure if I'm breaking some unofficial rule about starting 2 new threads in one day, but here goes. Ok, I really need help around the greens. Brian we are dying for that short game video! My chipping and pitching have gone to absolute H E L L. I'm either duffing short, or blading long, or...

Been really thinking about the hand position at address, and pondering the effects on the swing. Thought it might be good to start a thread on the subject. Very curious as to the following: Hands low or high at address? What are the pros and cons of each setup? Who would you recommend a low...

So yesterday at the range I noticed that my clubface alignment at address is off. Holding the club out in front of me, and not trying to turn my hands to make the face square, I noticed the face was about 10-15 degrees closed. Misses lately have been all over the place, but mostly slices and...

A short story... For those of you who saw my swing video a while back, you know I have been fighting a really armsy swing that was way too much inside the line on the way back. Anyways, to make a long story short, yesterday I had the chance to stop at the golf store and fiddle around with my...

Just wanted to express some comments on the flipper and soft draw videos. Confessions of a Former Flipper: This video is an excellent explanation of why a flat left wrist at impact is essential to good ball striking. The drills, especially the Dr. Pepper Machine and Progressive Divot are great...

Well, I'll be posting a new video soon, but for those of you that saw my last one, here is an update and a question... First I have been working to fix that overrotation of the clubface going back / handsy takeaway. Brian's step on the right foot, combined with the feel of the Hogan waggle has...

Hey Brian, I loved the Sam Snead swing analysis. Snead's swing was fantastic. Could you do an analysis of Byron Nelson's iron swing? I see several things in it that I really think are great and align with some of your teaching: Mid body hands Lagging clubhead takeaway Pivot powered delivery...

Ok, I searched and searched and searched and cannot find the elusive pdf from Brian describing setting up the "Manzella Neutral Grip". Can someone provide a link? Thanks! :D

Noticed a really big problem yesterday. Was practicing the swing with a mirror and noticed that at the top of my swing, especially with long clubs, I have a distinct bounce of the club, often causing it to pass parallel. My arms aren't changing positions, it's just the weight and momentum of the...

Hello all: First post on this forum. Read through a lot of posts already and I really like the scientific approach to understanding the swing, but also the emphasis to learn the proper associated feels. As an engineer and musician, I kinda need both for my swing to function. Ok so here is the...
