I ask this question because of all the stuff you read about how after 3 years you really don't get any better and about how golf is a game you have to learn as a kid to be really good at and by really good, I mean a + handicap, breaking par in local and state tournaments Is it possible or just...

I just wanted to post and say thanks to this site, personal lessons from Brian...I finally did it, I BROKE PAR. Shot 71 on a 72.1/125 course. 11/14 fairways and 11/18 greens it took 6 birdies to get it done because I started out bogey, double bogey, but I did it, one of the proudest days of my...

According to the Golf World US Open supplement. Ben Doyle watched CH III hit balls at the US Open and afterward Howell was very interested in what Doyle had to say, even asking him for a business card. Could this be the start of something big??

I was wondering what is the best way to grip the putter. I watched a couple of videos on the SeeMore site and the grip the instructor described included getting the heel pad on top, similar to what Brian teaches. Most everyone else teaches more of a palm grip. What would produce the most...

What happened to the alumni section?

I had the opportunity to hit some wedges on a lined football field yesterday. I was basically lining up on a hash mark and trying to hit wedges as straight as possible. Funny thing was, a straight shot, right down the hash line felt like a slight pull, a 3 yard push was actually the "eye...

What makes him statistically the best ball striker on tour? He has finished inside the top 10 in ball striking 8 of the last 10 years. I've seen his swing on tv coverage a lot lately and was wondering what peoples opinion of his swing was. Maybe a swing analysis is in order? I know he's...

I have had some success with the pivot, by feeling that they turn level on the backswing but also not adding flex to the right knee- it seems to make the transition to the downswing that much easier. I get in trouble (have a hard time driving the right shoulder down plane), when I feel, that...

Lately I have really been working hard on the fiddle drill, and working on it yesterday, I finally got what aiming point and letting the pivot carry your hands meant. A light bulb really went off. To create as much lag as possible using the fiddle drill you have got to get your hands past your...

MGF staff, What are some things I can do in of doors the next few months. I have a feeling that taking full swings in my living room for 3 months in the winter probably hurts more than helps my game. Any motion type drills that I can do to remain focused on the correct motions. Thanks

I enjoyed the thread on managing expectations by 30yr, and the comment by Thomas on his miss being a pull. I have the same problem. I've been really working hard on the downswing pivot, but something told me I still was not using my backswing pivot properly. I was confused about the Shoulder...

Do you need a specific camera or will just any ol' camcorder do ya. Thanks in advance.

Cause I'm really tired of the Pivot and Hogan threads How does the finish swivel and horizontal hinge action work together? What should be the dominant action?

Does anyone have any video of Byron Nelson? Thanks in advance

My habit has been to slide my hips up the wall instead of turning them. In trying to better learn the "Perfect Pivot". I have began in practice swings to preset the initial turn of my hips. When I start the backswing with my hips already in the correct position it feels much easier to rotate...

The last week has been completely eye opening for me. I spent last Sunday with Brian and this week had the opportunity to play a lot of golf. Scores were 78, 75, 73 and a 9 hole score of 36..Pretty good improvement the 73 included my lowest 9 hole score ever of 2 under 34. Haven't broke par...

I think most of the non-kool-aid TGM users are a lot like the fans of The Grateful Dead. Dead fans could listen and appreciate any and all types of music while relying on ol' Garcia at crunch time... The same goes for most users of TGM knowledge, they can listen understand and even appreciate...

I got the opportunity to spend this morning with Brian in the ATL working on my golf swing. Let me start off by saying that Brian has excellent communication skills and the ability to immediately put the student at ease with his likable manner and conversation. Brian had me start out getting...

I'm making a couple of assumptions here. 1. David Toms uses a Never Hook type pattern 2. I feel like I am using a Never Hook pattern as well. I try to model my swing after DT's with a little Rocca thrown in there too. That is what I feel like I'm doing anyway. I am just wondering if this...

Just finished watching the Never Slice video and was wondering if the twistaway move would help a leakage hooker maintain the flat left wrist through impact. Also what is the difference between full roll and twistaway? Are you just rotating your forearms in opposite directions? Thanks in advance.
