    Practicing the Toss

    I'm gonna try to go back to Soft Draw with the driver but I'm still hitting some push fades. I saw in a thread where Brian said without "the toss" it becomes Soft Push Fade. Do you think a weighted club could help practicing the toss? What do you guys do? I've hit some of the longest drives...

    Ball position

    How can something so important vary so much? I just watched Jack's "Golf My Way" where he says use a single ball position. When I first found Brian, I started using a single ball position, and then for the past few years I've switched to multiple positions. What do the "science guys" say...

    Driver, Fade, D-Plane

    I thought I read in another thread that you hit up on the driver and to do this you swing a little to the right. I'm having a hard time figuring out swinging up and to the right to hit a fade. The only thing I can think of is to aim way left and hit a push fade. Any help? Thanks

    Hep Wanted: From Wife

    Ok guys, need some help for the wife. She is an athletic woman and when she gets a hold of one she bombs it. But, she's all over the place. She can step up and hit a hook, slice, super high, super low, and a lot of pushes. Today she hit a ball almost sideways, never seen anything like it...

    Lower back pain

    Shoot, I thought I was young but have now realized I'm getting a little older. Shoulder pain the other day and now I have lower back pain. What do you guys do for lower back pain?

    Moving towards middle

    Has anyone gradually moved to the middle by themselves? Not sure, but I think I'm a little closer. I went from NSA to SD to NHA. This spring I had good success with NHA as my hooks totally went away and I was hitting my long irons better than ever. For the past few weeks for some reason I've...

    "Fitting" in hybrids (no gaps)

    Hey there, I'm thinking about buying a couple of hybrids (3 and 4 irons). However, I'm thinking the process is going to be a lot more difficult than I thought. Do you normally hit hybrids higher AND longer? I'm not looking for more distance as that would create an unwanted gap, I'm just...

    Different wedges for different conditions

    Right now it's been a little rainy here so the ground is a little soft (not soggy though). For the life of me I can't hit my lob wedge. On one hole I hit three identical shots, back to back to back. It called for about a 50 yard shot and ALL three of them landed almost identically 30 yards...

    Tom Watson's Secret to the Golf Swing

    Take a look, tell me what you think. I find it interesting how he thought his swing felt, almost like the "carry" that Brian talks about.

    Weight transfer: Footwork

    Ok, I'm currently striking my irons very well, everything from my 3 iron down to my lob wedge. However, every now and then I'll hit one fat. I'm really trying to step on my right, step on my left but I have a feeling the stepping on the right may be causing the fats. I really feel this...

    Still/Video Camera

    Are the new high speed video cameras just that or can they take stills as well? We need to replace our video and still cameras and if possible would just like to get 1 nice one that does both. It would mostly be used for "family stuff"( pics and home movies) but would definitely be utilized...

    Putting: D-Plane style

    How has the D-plane changed your putting, if any? Today I had possibly the best ball striking day of my life. Many tap-in pars and 1 tap-in birdie. The only problem with the tap-in pars was that many of them could/should have been birdies. My putting stinks and I need all the help I can get...

    Wedges: Mechanics or Feel?

    What do you guys do? Right now I'm all feel and it's not working the best. The past few days I've hit a wide variety of shots. I've hit beautiful lob wedges from 50 yards that end up tap ins, or I'll hit a shot that lands on the back and rolls off the green. Normally the contact is good but...

    SeeMore RST putters

    I'm on a putting quest right now. I just bought a BreakMaster and now I'm looking at some type of a device for my putter path. I'll probably end up buying a Putting Arc. Anyways, has anyone had any experience with the SeeMore putters? The RST seems rather intriguing. I'm wondering if that...

    Shaft lean

    Can someone remind me why Brian doesn't like a lot of shaft lean now? I watched the tournament today and Zach mentioned how getting more shaft lean was important. I also saw a clip form JB Holmes today where he mentioned he likes a lot of shaft lean. Why are we getting away from that...

    Zach Johnson's swing

    If anyone has the knowledge and time to review his swing that would be great. Obviously a huge fan as he's 30 minutes from me. I have access to his swing coach (Larry Gladson), just not sure how long he worked with him. Thanks PS If you didn't hear it yet, Zach has shot the last two 60's on...
