    119 mph swing speed = 264 yards????

    Guess who is dead last in "driving" distance this week? Behind Funk, way behind Goydos. Doesn't matter what club he's hitting off the tee, he's hitting pop-ups for crying out loud. How has it gotten this bad? Can it get any worse?

    The new grooves don't seem to be working.

    At least not for the USGA. A study of the stats taken from the first 13 events in 2010 compared to the same events on the same courses in 2009 show that the new grooves don't seem to be having the impact the USGA was looking for. Guess these guys really are good. :) Full story can be...

    Question about launch angle

    Is it possible, from Trackman launch data, to determine the amount of forward shaft lean? For example, my 7i (34*) has a launch angle of 16* with a -2* angle of attack. Is it as simple as subtracting the launch angle and angle of attack from the club loft to determine 16* of forward lean - can...

    Need help with Trackman translations

    Tuesday evening I had a driver fitting with Trackman. This was my first experience with “the man”. It turned out to not be the ideal conditions for an outdoor fitting (57* with mud all down range from the recent showers/flooding), but I kept the appointment anyway – too anxious to see what...

    Putter experimenting

    Been doing some experimenting with different putters, mainly with loft, head shape, sight lines, and hosel configs. The loft test have been the most surprising so far. I've always bought into the 3* to 4* as being the ideal, but not anymore. My stroke has been measured several times and I...

    1st swing in a Long time

    It's been nearly a year since my last full swing and 5 months since having surgery to fuse L4/L5. I've been cleared to hit some shots from a 100 yards and in. The back felt good yesterday so I decided to film a couple 8 irons to see how much swing atrophy there was. Surprisingly, the ball...

    Early shoulder turn bad?

    My shoulders have always turned early and completed turning before my arms have reached the top. Should the shoulders and arms stop moving together? If so, what problems can come from the arms and shoulders not stopping at the same time?

    Flop with flat left wrist

    There was a thread a few weeks back about hitting the flop with a square face and some throw away. Here's a high speed example of the open face, flat left wrist method (with a crazy 'volunteer'). YouTube - Unbelievable flop shot YouTube - Unbelievable flop shot #2

    Planes vs. Patterns?

    In Brian's blog on Tiger and Phil, he mentioned in a reply that it is difficult for a natural elbow planer to switch to the TS plane and for a natural TS planer to switch to an elbow planer. Do certain patterns favor certain planes, or could either plane work equally well for the same pattern...

    New to TGM

    Hello to all. I heard about TGM on another site a couple days ago. I asked a couple questions, and the guy suggested I "check out Manzella on YouTube", so here I am. I'm currently "trying" to play with the Hardy 1 plane swing, but I'm having some issues with the whole process. I'm 6'5" (235...
