Just curious what you think of it, Brian and others..... great lag article/description (same as on his site) I could do without the religious crap though - too many wars happen over religion, too much dividing, not enough uniting.... and as they say, nobody is right, if everybody is wrong.

Finally picked up these training aids.... probably the best 'set' of aides I've ever seen. The pure swing, in particular, will give you the 'feel' that Brian is taking about in his 'twist away', and the formed grip of the power angle is the best I've seen. (twist away can be felt using the...

Anybody catch this on TGC? Some of those guys have some EXCELLENT swings... all of the top 5 or so know how to 'ride that rim'. Best of the bunch for swing motion - Mathew Goggin. Very nice swing. Redgoat - I'd love to see some pics if you ever have the chance. Bredan Jones has a pretty...

For those of you who may not have seen it, there is an outstanding statue at Pebble Beach that sums up the swing as well as I have seen in still form. Go here: http://www.richardmacdonald.com/ And click on "monuments" for a few pictures. I'd love a copy of this in desktop size....something...

Just wondering if anyone here is headed to the ATT? I'll be down on Sunday if anyone wants to meet up for a beer.

The best way I can summarize the swing in general is this..... Use the base of your right hand to extend your left during the entire motion. As Doyle says, the right hand is always pushing. Your right palm should feel as if it is tracing the inside rim of a wheel, the hub is the top of your...

I was just reading Brian's article again, and it occurs to me that many on this board may not be aware of yet another way a frisbee can help your golf game. The game of frisbee golf. There are basically two variations - one that is the 'official' game (played with different equiptment...

Brian, in the post re: Sergio, you mentioned he was playing a shaft that was too stiff for him. I'm curious to hear the opinions of folks on this board re: shaft flex. More specifically, what do 'you' feel the best approach to fitting flex, and what 'you' feel are the advantages and...

Hit these today..... very nice. Anyone here play them? A good middle ground between a 'true' blade feel (MP 33/37's etc) and more forgiving designs. The 1025C's are quite nice too for mid to high hdcps, very similar feel to the MP 23 and 30. Not enough feedback for my tastes, but if Mac were...

Just curious what people on this board think of how Jones suggested the club be gripped... "so that it can be easily cocked up over the right shoulder" In Jone's view, take your grip with the shaft resting on your right shoulder, keep the thumbs and forefingers of both hands pressed lightly...

Just played the 'new and improved' Harding Park yesterday. They did an outstanding job of taking a dog track (the conditions were simply, as bad as you could find, the layout has always been good), and making it top notch. Great work on the greens, and contouring of the fairways. Looking...

One of the best swings, and one of the best books, ever written on the golf swing. I'd love to hear other opinions on his approach to the swing, and teaching. Who has read his book?

Anyone know who teaches him? Caught some of his play yesterday on TGC, what a putter! Next to Chad Cambell, one of the guys that looks like he has the potential to challenge the top on tour. I suspect Chad is in for another great year next year.

OK.... so if you put your lead forearm on a table (aka the plane in a swing) with your thumb up, just curious how people on this board view forearm rotation: it either a) stays in the same relationship, and the 'lower bone' and 'upper bone' remain in line, as the lower bone slides on the...

When a shaft is loaded starting down, how much flex should you be able to see in a still shot?

One of the better reference points you can ever use in your swing is to pay attention to the left thumb. From address, allowing natural rotation, your left thumb should move to 'point' to the outside of your right shoulder (well, certainly above it, but that is the 'direction', inside, up...

A good image I like to use for shortgame is to think of either a 'funnel', or a basketball hoop with the net/bottom facing directly downhill through the cup. Chip or putt the ball through the net and you will always have decent putts for par (uphill), or at the least, avoid sidehill putts. Let...

Hit my fourth 'unofficial' ace of the year today... range, 160 yards into a heavy cross/head wind...3/4 6 choked down..... too bad it counts for nothing, but still always a thrill to see. hit the stick halfway up, dead on drop into the cup.

Just curious what swingweights most pros use. Seems to me, you should use the heaviest swing weight you can control for a true 'swing' action. (at least for better players) Anyone know which tour quality irons have the heaviest swingweights?

I'm a big fan of Hogan's swing and I'd love to see some discussion of what some of you think the +/- of following his book to the letter are. What would some of you consider his 'flaws'? Of course, he was doing many things to prevent hooks/encourage fades, but beyond those, what do you see in...
