Which should I buy? Also, what is a Rifle Flighted Precision FCM 5.0 shafts? Are these stiff flex?

How many good lies can a man get a the OPEN hitting it 30 yards off line? It's almost not fair when Rocco and Lee are missing by 5-15 yards and have no shot but to hack it out. Tiger routinely hits is off the planet into the trampled dowm rough and its sits right up for him. And, yes, I know...

So I want to become an instructor. I have long wanted to work for myself and be around the game of golf as much as possible. I have noticed quite the demand for good instruction at my club among a group of 20+ handicap guys. I have learned a great deal about the swing in the last 2 years and...

Ok just a quick recap of where I have been. Had a lesson in October to fix underplane issues, pull hooks, lagging the hosel, axis tilt. Immediate improvement in all areas except the underplane move which took this spring to work out. I had/have a nasty drop move from the top and I guess that...

Throwing the drunk is money for my longer clubs, but it causing a very high shot with the 9 iron, pw and sw, enough to lose a club in distance. What gives???

Last Sunday, Miller said Freddie had the fastest left hip he had ever seen and that is why he is able create so much speed. How can this help me get faster? Can someone explain? Brian, Jim, Kevin......others?

I am a "soft fader" in the matrix and I have played 4 rounds in the last 2-3 weeks. I have not hit a draw/hook in any of those rounds nor the last 6 trips to the range, and my soft fade is turning into more of a hard fade and some slices. I am hitting it great, couldn't happier with contact...

The madness begins today. My final four: Louisville Kansas UCLA Texas

I am trading in my Taylor V Steel and have 4 choices: Tour Edge Exotics Taylor Made Burner Nike Sumo Steel Cleveland HiBore Anyone hit these? Your thoughts?

I am hitting the ball pretty good, and more consistently straight, and my axis tilt is good. I decided to video my swing in the house last night just to check my positions at backswing and the transition. After months of working on the downswing plane and swinging more left, I am not even...

Why am I hitting smothered pulls that barely get off the ground with 4, 5, 6 and 7 irons? Driver, 3W and short irons are very straight and very crisp with good trajectory, I couldn’t be happier. I thought that maybe I was getting in front of the ball with the longer irons trying to hit them...

Recovering hooker here:D The majority of the ball flights I am getting are straight ball with a late curve right, or a sometimes a big curve right. Occasionally a push, occasionally a pull. Never a pull-cut or what I would consider a "fade" that starts a little left and lays over to the...

Hey Brian and other academy-ites: When I had my lesson in Oct. we worked on more inside takeaway, less arching of LW, hold the hands at the top as long as possible, getting the hips more open and swinging left. I continue to struggle with what I call “sequencing” of these events and that has...

I rarely have trouble with short greenside bunker shots. I usually use my 58 degree and splash it out pretty close to the hole. I have no idea how to play the longer greenside bunker shots where I have to carry the ball further. I have no problem getting it out, but it is always 10-20 ft...

Referring to Brian’s latest article on Sergio, I am curious about the statement: “Sergio’s body has rotated enough to prevent an overly inside-out impact”. During my lesson with Brian we worked on more rotation and less lateral motion, and I have always had an extreme inside out impact. Every...

One of the changes I made during my October lesson with Brian was a narrower stance. I am still encountering a balance problem with this change that is causing me to occasionally “stumble” after some of my shots. I do notice, however; that when I consciously add axis tilt during the downswing...

Are there any? I have a set of Cleveland CG4 Tour's and a set of Mizuno Mp-32's that I need to have flattened. Are there any potential problems I should be aware of?

I went to see Brian in mid October as a 6 handicap to fix 3 things: 1. Heel contact 2. Big time Driver issues costing me 4-5 shots per round 3. Overall inconsistent ball striking I had in my mind a few things he would change and boy was I surprised. After a 2 hour workout, I had a new...

After my lesson, I have been working on getting on plane (from under) on the downswing. From the top I am pivoting with my torso while holding the hands at the top. It feels that I am shifting to a higher plane and coming way over the top on the way down. The ball flight is pretty straight...

The following is a list of how far I hit my irons on average: 4-190 5-180 6-170 7-155 8-145 9-135 PW-120 SW-105 I am 5'10 205, and a 6 hcap. Is this about right, or should I be focusing on increased distance with these clubs? I would be interested in hearing other's results as well.
