    Random theory on full-roll......

    Have been thinking....have a theory..... Brian.... If I know that I'm gonna go "wedding ring up" at the bottom..... Is it likely I will roll it open more on my way to the top? i.e. vs. if I'm gonna angle hinge......(even if I'm TRYING to make the same backswing).......

    Clubhead vs. Clubface/Path

    True or False: For a "stock shot" (one with "normal" clubface control- for you).... Once you get to the point where your clubface and path control are very good- mechanically very efficient.... All you really need to WORRY about is low point (clubhead) control to keep "reproducing".....and to...

    Toed Shots

    What are some causes? Not a chronic problem but sometimes I get little stretches where I hit some shots off the toe. Don't know if something is off in my address or if something is getting "shortened" in there or what.....

    Analyze This: Kenny Perry

    Lifted these pics from Brady Riggs' site..... What's goin on here? I get it and it looks fairly "orthodox" (if you know what to look for and if you know what I mean) except for from into impact to going up into the Finish. What's going on here? (in "Brian language") How come he looks not...

    Stiff Shafts For Less Left?

    You hear this a lot.....but then you hear conflicting things. Is this ALWAYS true??? Or does it depend on the swing? And what about trajectory with shaft flex?

    Angle of Approach/Crossline Hipslide (& All That Stuff)

    Brian... What's the deal with this stuff?

    "Hitting"

    Brian.... You have talked about "pure Hitting" before but haven't totally explained your stance as of late. What are your thoughts on "pure Hitting"? And I mean PURE. Pure enough to call Hitting flat-out, without saying 4-barrel. (which is pushing and pulling at the same time for you non-TGM...

    Downstroke Planes.....The WHYS...

    Calling The Manzella Golf Academy....!!! ;) ... I was thinking today.....I know some people swing on the EP in the downswing and some on the TSP..... But I'm not sure I fully understand WHY. I seem to (at least as of now) swing on the TSP on the way down. So.....why do ppl do one or the...

    I Can't Stand It....

    Another rant. :) K quick question first of all... Regarding Tiger's putt "hitting a ball mark"..... ......true story? or clever ploy? It's tough to tell from that camera angle.....but man.....I dunno. That thing missed the hole (so if it hopped it woulda hopped pretty good)......and I...

    RIVA Videos (.flv)

    Brian..... I dunno if I'm the only one who this happens to....but when u post a vid it says on the bottom "Download it" or something like that. I download....but I can only play it in that RIVA program, it ends up only being an audio (even though it's still like 90 mb's), and I can't scroll...

    Look Out Tiger.....birdie man is coming!

    ;) hehe... ... Here's a face-on of me from early January. My swing has been a TOTAL work in progress for about 5 years or something stupid (not much playing when I'm supposed to be PLAYING if u catch my drift) and (I feel) I'm really starting to narrow things down to something that will work...

    Anyone Watch The Tourney In Dubai?

    Tiger lost by like 2 strokes or w/e.....pretty right in there.... But I just heard on Golf Central he said he had his worst putting week in a really long time. (I had a little explosion in my brain) ... .... ... Anyone watch this thing? He serious?.....or full of BS?

    Tiger Woods 07 (for the Wii)

    Apparently the Wii version of TW 07 will be able to track YOUR swing with the "Wiimote" (which you swing like a club) and use it in the game. COOL. The thing is supposed to be pretty precise....and as we all know, all it would need to track would be: -face -path -shaft lean -speed (center...

    Shaft In Line With Left Arm

    Shaft In Line With RIGHT Arm Brian... Have you ever talked about this? (I think you have) What is your POV on this? i.e. Who throughout history has done this? (or close) I have found some sequences but camera angles and missing frames make it hard to pin down. I mean....even the pic...

    Closed Face Drivers

    What do you think of these? Seems like band-aid to me. How many ppl rotate em open at Address? (knowingly or not)

    Forum Changes

    Brian I liked the way it looked before.... With that little picture of you teaching that guy at the top of the screen. (I think it actually was you getting him to "put the club/clubface on the movie screen") I remember thinking it made the site look "more professional." JUST ONE MAN'S...

    Goosen

    I think (Brian) you said he was: "A hang-a-new-hinge, strong grip fighting, bent left arm, cupped left wrist guesstimater." ... I couldn't find the exact quote but I think that covers it. (you might've tossed something in there about him being ugly too..........jk ;)) K.... Why "strong grip...

    Anatomy Or Otherwise?

    There are a lot of different-looking swings out there....even among good players. Furyk, Trevino, Floyd, Barber, Stadler etc. etc. And shoot.....even aside from the "freakos"......there's just a lot of plain ol different (as in- varying) swings all together. ... You always hear the players...
