    Pushing off that pitcher's mound...

    I've been working very hard on my downswing pivot all winter in my living room of my apt with my plane lasers. It's getting better and better. Every time it has warmed up a bit here in chicago i hit the ball better and better. Thanks Tom/Brian. Here's something i noticed: For me to get to that...

    Why can't the bent left arm be an accumulator?

    Just as the subject says, why can't a bent left arm that straigtens into the ball be a power accumulator?

    Why Tiger misses to the right now

    This is a question to all of you. I saw a stat today that in all of the 3rd round tiger missed a total of something like 20 shots to the right. So, his swing swing pretty much almost guarantees a miss right as long as he doesn't flip it through impact then it will go left. I know this because...

    I would like to talk about Annika.....

    I've been looking at her swing lately and have been really studying her downswing a lot. Some things i find interesting: - Her right shoulder comes down plane quite nicely. In the clip i have, it's pointing perfectly at the plane line. - She has a decent amount of axis tilt, not a huge amount...

    Brian....your new picture

    Brian you are a very humble guy in my opinion and one of the nicest people i've ever met who just wants to help people. That picture says to me (and my g/f who saw it) "i'm gonna get you" LOL Bring back the "skinny manzella" photo, Nikki thinks you looked hotter.

    That's it....i'm done!

    NO MORE MATTS! THAT'S IT! ----- They injured me before and they freakn' DID IT AGAIN! I had ONE, ONE really good range session and have been hurting ever since. And wouldn't you know it? It's in a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AREA that never hurt before. Matts will kill your game and your body...

    Back from Orlando Range Report....

    Well i didn't have too much to work on at orlando, short list of things: 1) bend over more from the waist 2) strengthen the right hand grip a bit 3) get the right shoulder to KEEP going down plane through the ball so i don't lose my axis tilt ----- #3 has been a killer for me my whole golfing...

She called up, the man, Ben Doyle and ordered me my first copy of The Golfing Machine! How freakn' cool is that? I'll just...

    Range report......

    Well, it's been a looooooooooong time since i've just gone out to hit balls. Man reason is because well, it's been freaking cold in chicago lol. However we got up to 50* today and it was warm enough. I've really settled on a pattern for me, i don't tinker much anymore except for learning and...

    More fun from the golf channel......

    Was watching the segment on long drivers earlier and was busy doing other things when somehow they merge into something with Frank Thomas and some guy with some golfer. He has a problem with hitting the ball off the toe for the bulk of his career. I immediately thought OTT...but it didn't...

    2 questions......

    1) I need some help with a move that two of my favorite golfers do but i don't know WHY they do it. The move i'm talking about is done by Ernie Els and David Toms. At transition (backswing to downswing) it "looks" like their left arm gets longer. Like they magically applie a bunch more extensor...

    Paul Azinger's "Bunker Lesson" at the Skins...

    He should've just stayed a player because he obviously isn't that good of a commentator however i'll admit when him and Faldo make fun of each other it is comical and today he shows why he can't teach. Here are Azinger's "fundamentals" for a bunker shot: 1) stand far away from it 2) sit down...

    Adam Scott's new setup....

    I haven't really been paying much attention to his swing lately and to be honest i don't think TV has had much coverage of it. However i did get to watch a little of him and Couples this weekend watching the Franklin Templeton shootout. So who here can tell me what is different about his setup...

    Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to the straight ball we go

    The straight ball is back and the pulls are gone! The moral of the story is to always monitor the left hand, if you're going to be "manzella neutral" then you can have a perfectly flat left wrist. If you have strong single action, then you can have a slightly cupped left wrist with a thumb more...
