i need a little help in understanding swinging left and clubface control. still have a bit of a tendency to hit a pull with a draw added to it at times. i do feel i swing left(although at times my divots do go right) and i really should swing more upright rather than flattish. but when i do...

I have rarely, if ever tried a mid body hands set up position until this afternoon. it really never felt or looked comfortable to me. i've been fighting the pulls and drawing on top of that and ready to try anything. the guy i played with today said to try hitting with my hands more...

I am now finally understanding the down, out, and forward---especially in trying to straighten out my initial direction from previously pulling most irons. now what i'm doing is swinging out and i'm getting shanks. what confuses me a bit is the swinging left. how do you combine the two...

Ok. here is my problem and what I think I may be doing, but not sure of a correct fix. misses and what has turned to be a consistent shot lately is a ball that either starts straight or even a bit left of target and goes further left. my divots go a bit to the right, which tells me i am going...

can a swaying of the hips cause a change in the downswing that could promote pulls or clubface closing too much? many times i feel my right hip is about in line with my right heel. should the hips be inside the feet?

by habit i shut the clubface coming down into the ball. divot pattern is out to the right but ballflight is left. would getting the feeling and thought of the underhand toss as mentioned in soft draw help eliminate this premature clubface closing? just easy practice tosses inside has me...

Brian, Is there any way you could or would post up the attendees of the GTE conference that are instructors? I'd like to see if any from or close to St. Louis went that I could possibly get in touch with. currently I have a tough time getting to Louisville to see one of your authorized...

i have a problem with finishing my pivot on the forward swing. i still seem like i quit and then my hands get ahead of the pivot and i flip through and results seem to be hooks. i have the flipper video and know the towel drill, but are there any others that may help me finish a little better...

i'm still having a heck of a time getting rid of the draw in all my irons. they start at the target but then draw/hook quite a bit. I've got NHA and i think it will surely help me, but i have a question regarding the clubface after impact. At impact it says the face should still be slightly...

A little advice on which pattern may be best for me. My typical swing with my irons have a bit of a draw, perhaps even a hook. direction wise starts pretty much at target but tend to be pulled as well. Would doing something like the soft draw pattern be good for me especially if I fight...

is anyone familiar with the Tour Tempo (microPlayer) device? I was given one and curious to the benefits, etc before I use it. thanks

Brian and instructors: During this last year, what 'new' things have you learned both about the game and for giving instruction? What were the things that had you making a change to your regular thoughts on instruction or other elements for teaching or the game itself? Thanks

i'm really trying to get this swing left idea, but i am still pulling the ball big time with my irons--not with my driver. can or do you swing left without coming over the top, or is the idea to swing from in to out, then back left after contact? thanks for some clarification.

Brian: Do you have any students in the women's am this week here in St. Louis? I've seen a couple gals carrying Louisville Cardinals bags. Just wonder if you've coached anyone.

i'd like a little bit of explanation of the position of the elbows and forearms both at address and as swinging. would i want to keep the forearms/elbows somewhat tight or connected if possible? i feel my left elbow gets away a bit. would this be a power leak and if so, how much is...

Brian: I've read that you've been pretty busy lately, but will you be doing any more of the webcasts soon? Thanks

ok, a quick question on pop out and sd/nha patterns. would the nha2 pattern have a bit of the popout as you are bringing the clubs/hands somewhat straight back? when using sd pattern and the idea is to have the hands relatively close to the hips turning back, does the clubhead itself turn...

Brian(or academy): could you comment on a couple articles listed regarding firing the hips and sequence? the guy has several articles. a couple others actually tie into a lot what brian has in his #5 video. Tiger and Sadlowski: Emergence of a New, More Powerful Swing :: Oceanic Time Warner...

i have the NHA2 and it really has helped with my takeaway and reducing my hook. i remember in brian's first nha he said you may still have a pull. although i am hitting a straight ball, my miss could be the pull. i almost feel as when i am at the top of my backswing and when he says to...

Brian or others: do you like the 'pump' drill or something like it as a drill to help throwaway from the top and too early of a release? i sometimes feel i pre-release the club and thought this drill will get my right elbow leading better. what's your thoughts, pro or con?
