Brian mentions and seems to be a big advocate of the right leg straightening some on the back swing. Thinking about it and doing some stuff in the mirror, let me know if this makes sense. If the right knee does not straighten some then the base of the spine will have to lower during the...

that some instructors talk about level hip turn? in the set up we bend from the hips so the hips have primary axis tilt, well they rotate on this axis. So why do some say level hip turn or hips are level?

I am working on just a few things in my swing. The pivot, role of the arms and set up. Working on the pivot is easy so no problem there. but the biggest problem I am having is set up. I got the grip good but what I do not like is my tush line at address. My butt sticks out behind my heels...

are the articles going to come back up or are they lost in the make over? I like the positive direction the website is going, just would prefer to not have to leave behind the valuable info of the articles

I dont hear much about the role of the left hand heal pad pushing down on the butt end of the shaft to get the club to set on the way back. In doing this wouldnt it take care of extensor action? The left hand only swing, which Daly does pretty well with, does the exact thing

I posted this on another fourm and came to some of these conclusions/observations after learning more about the pivot (with many thanks to bman). I would be interested in some opinions from here becuase for golf discussion this is the best place on the net that I have seen. I ask one thing, let...

between weight shift and weight pressure? thanks neil

has anyone here had to play with a knee brace, and if so how could I expect it to hinder me. The kind I am talking about would hinder all side to side movement of the knee

from a golf magazine website. and i tried to read what an instructor was saying but I could not bring myself to read the whole article on two of his articles and gave up from there. First he says the swing bottoms out below the sternum so chip shots should be behind the center of the chest...

a good set up and allignment, mixed in with a good pivot, from there what can go wrong. how much can you screw up a swing that has a good pivot?

use a lagging clubhead takeawy, what are the drawbacks? a buddy of mine uses it and strikes it VERY pure and very long. his only issue is he sometimes gets outside of his right foot on the take away. does a lagging make chipping more difficult?

when you rotate around the base of the spine pivot center, during the initial shift back onto the right side, isnt this moving the pivot center as well. so where/when is the pivot center established? is it after the intial shift?

is anyone here familiar with organic energy? Is this what extensor action really is?

does tgm have more then one pivot? I have looked in my book and only noticed one style which is head centered (what is the name for that again?) I did not notice a pivot that rotates around the spine but maybe I have not looked through it enough.

serigios backswing? How does he get that club head to come up so high? it looks like is he actively pushing with the fat pad of his left hand. his hands at address are also very low. now his swing looks a lot like hogan but hogan did not take the club back near as steep did he?

I am just trying to touch up my set up so a couple of quick questions. 1. at address with a six iron my head is 3 inches right of center, in brians set up article he looks less then half that. is this too much? 2.His hips look like they are a little left of center, is this correct or do...

in having a better understanding of pivot from this site I have been messing around and trying to figure this stuff out. one thing I noticed is this. If you stand in front of a mirror and just think get my weight on my right foot, get my weight on my left foot you will notice something, your...

in effort to get rid of my lunge I have realized that my head stays perfectly still in the backswing and does not move offf the ball or rotate around the base of neck. When I first saw this last night I started lookiing at many different days that I have taped in the past, head always stayed...

Bman, says that he likes the rear leg to straighten a little on the back swing. is that because the rear butt cheek rotates behind the golfer a little more and gets a little closer to the target, and pulls the knee with it. Maybe that is hard to understand, to put it another way. if you...

I had a conversation with an instructor and he told me about how there are some golfers that are cupped at the top, and the advantages of it. So, being inquisitive as I am I started looking at some pictures. From the photos that I saw it looks like Ernie els seems to have a slight cup going...
