    The search for new blades.....

    Just wanted to get some opinions from folks on the board re: the best pure blades on the market? I've got Mac 1025M's, which are great, great sticks, they play more like a cavity back though, can't work the ball much with them. I've never been a huge fan of the MP 33's. TA1's are pretty...

    David A vs. Hogan

    Well I just watched David's tape, and his swing speaks for itself. Looking forward to seeing it posted sometime. I'll keep my comments brief and just say, nobody does Hogan better. Not that I've ever seen. And that just may include Hogan himself. Well done David. Well done. You sir, need...

    Steven Ames

    Looks fairly TGM to me.... who teaches him? Pretty solid motion from what I can see. Redgoat, I'd love to see some pics of his swing if you get the chance.

    Rod Pampling's Swing

    Hey Brian, what do you think of this guy's swing? Seems to be a good example of what you describe in your articles, especially setup 'looking at the ball'.

    Homer's Notes and max delay

    On FGI there is a link to some of Homer's notes that can be found here: http://pub209.ezboard.com/fthetruthaboutthegolfswing9747frm26.showMessage?topicID=12.topic Question re: max trigger delay and a swinger's motion - in the notes Homer mentions that for a swinger, uncocking happens 'before'...

    That was just plain wrong.......

    I am disgusted by the way Goosen was treated by the galleries. Not only embarassing and beyond rude, but further displays the worst of this country. What example does that show to everyone else on this shared planet of ours? Congratulations Goosen, outstanding play, and a great victory that...

    EdZ's Swing

    Been a while since I had my swing on tape.... thought I'd post it. Face on, 6 iron: http://www.geocities.com/ezil71/face.avi Down the line, 6 iron: http://www.geocities.com/ezil71/downline.avi Not happy at all with my setup, sloppy. Experimenting with right knee flex, allowing a bit more...

    Macdonald Smith

    Anyone have any links/photos of his swing? I was just reading Alex Morrison's "A New Way to Better Golf" 1932 again, and found a post impact photo of him that is textbook picture perfect, but I've never seen the rest of his motion. BTW - Morrison's book was well ahead of its time, some very...

    Grip - Ben vs. Brian's view

    Brian, I think it would be a helpful conversation to discuss why you recommend the grip you do, and why Ben uses the grip he does. Personally, I think most folks should start with a grip more like Ben's, and move towards your model only after learning decent contact, and proper rotation, and...

    What equipment do you play?

    Just curious what folks on the board play. My current set is 2-PW, 52, 56, 60 Mac 1025M standard loft/lie with s300 shafts (alternate carrying 2 iron and wedges depending on conditions, surprisingly forgiving blade, less workable than MP's or apex, but still workable) Had them spec'd to D4...

    Martin Hall - great book

    Picked up a copy of his 'Golf Myths Exposed', very solid and an outstanding set of drills. Highly recommeded, especially for new golfers. Rock solid info, great images and clear concepts. Strange, for such a good book published in 2003 by the PGA Partners, it seems that it is no longer printed?

    Hogan and the flat left wrist

    I was doing some experimentation today at the range, with the goal of following Hogan's 5 lessons to the letter. My lead hand grip tends to get a touch into the palm (not much, but certainly not down in the fingers as much as today). After forcing myself to really get the grip down in the...

    The right foream

    Anyone else 'feel' as if they hit the ball with the 'inside' of the ENTIRE right forearm, from elbow to wrist?

    mid body hands - bent left straight right

    Brian, can you go into more detail re: the mid body hands, bent left, flat right? I understand the 'why' of this move, but having ingrained a more 'flat left' wrist position (think Irwin), have a hard time not feeling a 'scoop' move through the ball when trying out this address position... my...

    Vegas courses?

    Going to Vegas with the gang at the end of this month... any recommendations for places to play (under $100)? Haven't played much there (well, Legacy, which wasn't anything special) no car, so close to the strip/airport is key......

    The right hand 'throw'

    Just wanted to get a thread going on what people 'feel' for their right hand through the shot the 'rock skip' the 'sidearm' the 'underhand toss' the 'uppercut punch' What type of 'throw' do YOU feel, and where do you aim it? Brian, looking forward to your aim point article BTW....;)

    C Groove Putters

    Picked one of these up off ebay the other day (Sophia model), and if you haven't checked them out, I'd highly recommend it. VERY nice roll off these putters. Got it from a guy in CO, Dale at 'Yes' golf - very nice folks (I will send you his email if you wish).

    De la Torre and Knudson

    Brian - what are your thoughts on their approach? I know there are a few (or many) things you would disagree with on a detail level, but I'm talking about mental images and concepts. IMO - golf is much more like basketball, it should be a 'reaction' to a target. As you know, I'm a huge fan of...

    What would you do to Hogan's swing?

    Just curious what the folks on the board would do, if anything, to change Hogan's swing? Lets imagine he came to you just after his accident, and wanted you to rebuild his swing. How do you think your results would have differed from what Hogan eventually built?

    Wally Armstrong best teacher ever?

    Brian - what do you think of his teaching? One of the best instructors I've seen, and honestly, I now 'get' the 'inside back corner with an OPEN clubface' in 'feel' - and am hitting it like Hogan and Tiger. I know you are a good teacher, but IMO this guy is up at the top of the list. Hogan...
