Brian: I have just got your Beta tape which is very good and I will post my thoughts on it when I have seen it through a couple more times. I am not clear about your sit down to impact part of the tape. The sit down move looks like a shift of the left knee from the pulled in position it...

Once you have developed a reasonable game what is the minimum practice that you must do to maintain the same standard and prevent erosion of skills? I read a post where Brian said that the short game skills need more practice to keep the same skill levels than the full swing. I would be very...

Brian: I have been following your swing advice and Tee to Green things have improved a lot. I am longer and straighter than I have been and have a better idea of what I should be doing in this area. When I am in wedge land I am not getting up and down enough and am not making enough birdies on...

Brian:A post on FGI got me thinking about this. Why does Mike Weir do his pre shot backstoke ritual? I understand that Chris DiMarco who used to play against mikestloc is coached by the same guy Mike Smith who has got him doing the same kind of thing. see video...

Chuck Evans left a note on his website saying that he was going to be away for a bit and was looking after a couple of players that were doing second stage Q school. You said you were going to post Bartlett's swing . Is he doing Q school and have you got any other up and comers doing it? A...

I was very impressed with Chad Campbell's ball striking and the way he went about his game when spotting for ABC at this years Open. He looks like a major winner in waiting to me. His swing looks a bit flat though. Redgoat : Do you have any video footage of his swing or pics? Thanks.

I know a lot of the first members came to this site from FGI but there is no direct link from that site to here . There are now over 700 members. How did the new ones find out about this website?

Jos Vanstiphout? Toby the Whale on the GO website wrote Jos the mental guy! The name of the mental guru is JOS VANSTIPHOUT of Belgium, who once played in a rock band called and had a single in Brazil,. Seems to me lika a vagabond salesman, but with guys like Darren Clarke, Ernie Els, homas...

Brian: I know that you like the single ball position as opposed to the ball moving further back in your stance with the shorter irons. You also recomend keeping the same ball position when hitting a low punched shot but suggest moving the aiming point further forward in the stance and standing...

Brian: The full swing is coming along fine. Since changing my grip to the one you recomend and working on lag ( Thanks MikeO for stopping me getting the wrong end of the stick)my tee shots are longer and straighter than ever with the full swing. When I am in between clubs or need to take...

Brian: What are your thoughts on the extra lofted Lob Wedge. I know Pelz recomends them. Do you know what Stan Utley's view of them is? I can only see that that this type of wedge would be of use to an accomplshed player and would not suit the less skilled player. What are your...

Brian: Some time ago you said that when you had lessons with Ben Doyle he got you to bend forward from the hips more and got you more over the ball. Could you go into the significance of this? I have recently been working on getting my trail forearm on the shaft plane at delivery position...

I have seen the term the "magic of the right forearm". I am unsure of how the trail arm should behave in the swing with regard to various plane shifts etc and would like this cleared up so that I can monitor it's movement with some precision. Can Brian or someone go into how the trail forearm...

In one of EdZ posts he said he was big on laser training . I have got a rough idea on how to use lasers/flash lights in training and would love to see some detailed posts on how to get the most out of laser training. I would really like to see what EdZ has to say on the subject and see if I can...

What causes once great players and Major players to go from the top of the game to junk also rans ? Both Ian Baker-Finch and David Duval have won the British Open and many other championships yet both have lost it. What causes this syndrome?

I have been helping an Essex junior with his game and he has been coming on well. Today all the Essex kids had a teaching sesion with their Leadbetter and John Jacobs trained coaches. The kid I am helping has been beating the rest of the kids. They had a look at his swing today and this is...

Brian: The short but sweet thing was all very well and good as a means to placate the FGI crew but now that you have your own forum and a small but interested group I feel the short but sweet policy has run it's course. I would like to see longer more detailed posts . Not George...

My playing partner loves messing around with his equipment and spends a fortune on it. He recently had Project X shafts pured and put in his Hogan blades and he swears by them. Last week I took his advice and had a Fujikura Tour spec Spd -660 TR pured and put in 9.5* TM R510 TP head. I...

I got this from the golf opinions web site. I met Laura at the Open she came over as straight forward and open. She is a big lump with big shoulders that any man would be proud of.Here are her comments Golf World Sept5, 2003 Laura Davies: "I have no interest in having someone tell me...
