Trackman states that spin loft generates spin and that spin loft remains largely unchanged when AoA is changed. So why did Kyle Stanley's ball spin back off the green when he hit it in so low and others who hit it in higher did not suffer a similar fate? And why generally are low flying shots...

Watching the Abu Dhabi tournament I couldn't believe how low Woods tees it up with the driver? How can you hit up on it when it's teed up so low?

I have read a few posts lately, including this one from DC about "removing the reward", apparently a Manzella-ism which Kevin Shields also endorsed. Clearly a concept which makes a lot of sense and one which I had independently discovered and used. But in order to remove the reward you have to...

Brian, Kevin et al who have some experience of getting to know successful Tour players: Is there a common denominator for success as a player? If there was one or two things that you guys would say are essential, what would they be?

Were any of the forum questions put to the panel? My question was whether we should be trying to create shear forces on the ground or trying to avoid them. http://www.brianmanzella.com/golfing-discussions/16404-add-your-anti-summit-ii-questions-right-here.html#post211547

Just read about a camera from MIT that takes a TRILLION frames per second. Something similar coupled with 3D images and you got everything you need, no?

Looking at the results from the Q-school it seem to me to be close to impossible to get onto the Tour this way. Look at some of the ex-Tour Players struggling to even get close. IMO it is definitely easier to get a European Tour Card. If the US players start coming over to the European Tour...

A question: how does bending the left wrist through impact affect the movement of the arms post impact. For example would it be possible to tell from the finish position if the release had been done with a BLR or a flattening/bowing left wrist?

Anyone know how much worn grooves affect spin? My PW is well worn on the SWEETSPOT ;) and the ball has started to fly a tad strange from tme to time. Is this because of the worn grooves?

Going to buy a Casio soon. I would like a pocket sized one, with good video quality when the light is reasonable. Would like to be able to see clubface alignment pre and post impact at over 100mph. Which one fit the bill? Thanks in advance.

Just heard a commentator (ex tour player) talking about how much straighter the ball goes these days compared to 20 years ago. In the next breath he claimed that it spins more. Is this possible, given that the ball spins around one axis a la d-plane? Surely this would mean that it would spin...

Confessions of Former Face Shutters: Hogan beat the shut face with his "SECRET". If we all list the best tips we've had (which actually worked) we'll find his secret, right? So fire away! PS: Mine: Grip it weaker with the right hand

Is this in tune with the correct forces at impact? <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/vVFYxhyQ8O4" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

A question to the clubfitters: What's the best alternative to the Project X 6.0? Been using it for about 4 years now and I'm finding it a bit too heavy and feel I really have to kill it to get any action out of the shaft. Not great with 9-irons and wedges. Traj is a bit to high, and I tend to...

Clearly great golfers are a product of their god given ability and their environment. Do you guys think it would be possible to produce a team of great golfers (PGA Tour standard) by creating a good environment (good courses, practice facilities, coaches, physical training, nutrition etc.) and...

A good friend of mine is going to be in Santa Barbara for a few days. You guys got any tips on decent courses for reasonable prices? Thanks for any help.

There has been some inference on the forum here that there is really no need to hit "late". Is there an example of someone who releases all angles early who hit(s) the ball well? I know there has been talk that Tom Watson and Jack hit early but I don't see any positions in their swings that...

Is there a difference between turning the sweetspot off the plane and downarching, or are they one and the same?

Is it possible/desirable to tip trim a parrallel tip driver shaft (Prolaunch Red Axis)? A guy told me if you tip trim it the kick point moves downwards resulting in a higher trajectory, although the shaft is stiffer. Not sure I believe him.... Thanks for any input.
