Figured i'd post this here before i go ebay or other boards. Driver for sale is a Tour Issued Cleveland Comp with a TXXXX serial indicating so, stamped 8.5* on the sole, face angle appears to be about 1-1.5* open. Shaft is an Accra SC75 M5 Flex (M5 = X) with a Tour Velvet grip. The crown has...

So, my other thread was getting a little off topic so i deleted some posts and decided to start a new thread to clear up some confusion that surrounds both open faced heads and closed face heads. So here goes: Driver A: - Measured with a 1* closed face angle - Measured with 9* of loft Now, we...

Ok, as many of my students know i hit the ball pretty darn straight. However i'll admit i'm more on the fade side of the matrix than the draw but on most of my shots they go fairly straight or move a few yards left or right, but not much at all. Because i am on the fade side of the matrix and...

10pm central on the golf channel, july 4th Your schedule may vary. Has to have been recent because he has his TM gear on.

Just a couple suggestions for all of you who are posting swings for us to review: 1) On down the line views do your very best to make sure everyhing is as parallel as possible. If you get the angle from the left or the right it will make your swing look a certain way that it wouldn't look in...

I have been working on all this golf stuff for nearly 3 full years come this July. I have made all kinds of changes from hackerdom, to Never Slice Again, to Never Hook Again, back to Never Slice Again and eventually settled in the middle of the Manzella matrix (towards the fade side) at the end...

As some of you know i am a Financial Analyst by profession. I sit around financial data all day long and practically LIVE in Excel. So for fun i did a VERY BASIC analysis of how good -1 par on the PGA Tour really is. If you could make the tour and average -1 par PER ROUND (total tournament...

A great "thru the ball" position/Flat Right Foot (with a Brian Manzella Video Answer) Here's a student of mine that i have been working with for over a year now. He isn't very tall, isn't very flexable, and let's just say he likes his beer ;). HOWEVER He can get into a very nice positions...

Here's how i figure it: That hole a par is like a birdie, so really your goal is bogey or better imo, even for the pros. The likelyhood of getting it on the green in regulation is very slim and the price you pay for TRYING to do it is not good. It brings all the big numbers into play. Here's...

Who thinks they can work on their balance in their swing? If you need clarification, what i am talking about is those of you who feel you have poor balance, do you think you can actually "work" on that? Thanks.

So my 2nd student ever who i began teaching last year who has taken maybe 5-7 lessons from me and also 1 from Brian when he was in town last year called me up today and asked if i wanted to get together for lunch and hit some balls at a range about 2 minutes from my normal job. Background: This...

When you start hitting booming drives that travel near 300 yards on a semi-regular basis and can't quite seem to find the ball in some minor rough. Like "magic" it has disappeared. Does this really piss the hell out of anyone other than me? Nothing like hitting a great drive that might end...

Nothing like shanking it off the tee, hitting a 9 iron from the rough @ 155 and then making a birdie. I wonder how many more big pushes, shanks, and "almost" shanks Tiger has to hit before he figures out Haney's theory of plane really doesn't work. Shame.

Lucky for me i'm sitting at home today and am not feeling well. Boo Weekly HOLED OUT on both 17 AND 18 to save PAR from around the greens. Ernie was 1 behind going into 17, played a bad shot and made bogey. He had to hole out from the 18th fairway (155 yards) and ALMOST DID! Left it about...

This man's swing has been off for 2 straight days. I have seen maybe A DOZEN even decent swings from him and guess what? He's +3, only 5 shots back with 2 full days to make it up. That says A LOT for this man's ability to grind and make it through a round. ------------- So, how's he going to...

Our good friend Stewart couldn't figure out why i said he had a strong grip because he felt it was very neutral. I saw almost the entire logo on his club and the hand looked very turned. ------- Today he sent me a video of his grip that was up close and perfectly centered. What happened...

Looks like he's been paying attention... Title of Article: Let your Tilt Increase Subtitle: For powerful drives, your spine angle should double at impact :D

Is it just me or does Adam Scott look more like a "Mac" golfer? Seems to be very bent over with a bunch of knee bend.

I have been trying to explain to people that for the MOST PART (not all) "feel" in the golfswing when comparing putters, drivers, balls, etc is all related to what sound the equiptment emits and how your brain interprets that sound into some kind of feel. Well guess what? They just had a Nike...
