    Johhny Miller on Mike Weir

    Did anyone else hear Johnny talking about Mike Weir's struggles with reverse pivoting and distance loss with the driver? He also said that "stack and tilt is fine for short and mid irons, but you have to get behind the ball with the bigger clubs" (paraphrased). Then Roger Maltbie commented...

    Does the pivot help you square the face?

    In my quest to figure this game out, I have encountered another puzzling development with my swing. My normal pass at the ball is a very smooth arms driven swing, (98-100 mph with driver) with a good transition move, a flw at the top and a slight draw. My fault has always been shots off the...

    What is the most difficult thing to learn in the swing?

    My vote: The combination of lagging the sweetspot and swiveling properly just after impact. I either lag the sweetspot and overdo the horizontal hinge and pull or, in an effort not to pull it so much, lag the hosel a bit and hit one off the heel.

    Can someone define "laid off"

    I thought I knew what it was, but I am unsure of it now. I thought it was describing a position at the top where the club is pointing left of the target. Anyone?

    Does Swinging More Left Make it Easier....

    To lag the sweetspot? It feels like so to me. I have been working hard on swinging my hands way much more left and have noticed that my contact has improved drastically (even though I am hitting a lot of pulls) and many hits on the center to toe of the club instead of center to heel (for me).

    Hitting "the box" with the hosel.

    I have a problem with twisting away on the downswing too much to put the club on the box and angle hinging enough to hit it straight or even fade it. I have a powerful pivot and that causes the face to open on the transition/downswing, and if I do not twist down to the ball I hit it on the...

    What's Up with Wie?

    I know, her swing is messed up and her confidence is shaken, but I am looking for a detailed explanation of whats wrong with her swing. It seems like the numbers she is putting up there are a so drastically different from one day to the next.:eek:

    What happens when clubface control wears off

    I spent Feb-May learning clubface control with twistaway to top and "knuckles to the ground" on the way down. I then moved to NHA to straighten out the path, and was playing great. I did take a couple weeks off to move to a new city, and wow, I can't do squat right now. 80, 83, 85, and I have...

    How important is the mental game????

    I just got back from a 6 day golf trip with multiple money games going on and my new manzella swing that was lights out previously, showed up only the last 2 days. I couldn't get my takeaway right, I was fighting all kinds of shots the first 3 days, including a couple shanks. What is the story?

    I Need more height Captain!

    I have eliminated almost all leakage from my swing, and am squeezing the crap out of the ball. I am also hitting it straighter than ever. I have noticed that some of my longer irons, my utility and my 3 wood are extremely low and I feel that I have lost some distance as a result. (3 wood...

    Hinge Action/Release Question

    I have been watching some pro swings lately and comparing them to mine at impact and release. I am using horizontal hinge with a full roll swivel, and I notice just after impact my left wrist and clubface has rotated much more than say Tiger's at this same point. Is that because Tiger plays a...

    What should I do to fix driver....

    I think I have "mastered" the full roll swivel for my irons and 3-wood as I have been really hitting the ball solid and straight. I am unable to hit driver consistently and am hooking the ball a good 40 yards from my initial direction. I do swing out to right field a lot, so I have been...

    Driver Set Up

    Question for anyone really, but mainly for the clubfitters/teachers: Traditionally I have played an 8.5 degree driver mainly because I had a flip and a steep swing that hit the ball very high. I have since eliminated/reduced both and am hitting my driver very low, like irons almost. In 2...

    Your Turn Mr. Manzella

    BMan wins another one This is long, and yes I am bragging.................on someone. I have made myself a 6 handicap in 7 self taught years of well timed flipping. The last 3 years have been wrought with frustration so I turned to 3 teachers for help. I bought books by Butch Harmon, David...

    Hitting and Swinging

    Would it be beneficial for me to pick one or the other? Would it help in my development of clubface control and other components in the swing?

    Right Shoulder, Roundhousing and Getting "Stuck"

    I have learned that I do not have the best of clubface control so I have been working through NSA. I have also learned that by starting my downswing with an aggressive hip rotation after a slight bump to the left that I am better able to square the clubface and create more lag. I can play...
