    Controlling the D-Plane in the short game

    How would one go about controlling angle of attack on short shots? I know I myself can get very steep sometimes and wonder how it would be best to control the angle of attack to get consistant trajectory.

    Question for Brian/Academy

    Would it be along the right line to think in terms of snaping the kinetic chain that Building Blocks is a good way to think/practice of how the "arm" chain snaps? Would the video portray this in the correct order to practice according to kinetic chain snapping? I realise they dont all go one at...

    Solving of chipping problems

    Well I'm back to short game practice only after doing a few silly things with lifting suitcases. Chipping issues come back down to my main full swing fault and my pivot "stopping" on the way down or at least lagging behind. I seemed to have more limited success with a clubhead tucked into my...

    Long lay off, weight loss and a question for Brian....

    And all to be honest.... I've had about 4 months off golf and have lost around about 3 stone (UK weight) and have done a lot of work posture wise via Egoscue exercises to correct general (not golf) poor posture and help prevent future neck and back problems. I have hit a few balls this week...

    Alignment questions/D Plane

    For Brian/Academy members, Is there variation on how a golfer aligns dependant on where they are in the Manzella matrix? How should a "middle of the matrix" player set up in terms of alignment of feet/hips/shoulders to target and what would be general rules for ball position? How does this...

    For Brian/Academy:- Underplane/Fatshots and Steep swings

    What are the main causes of golfers being underplane? Are there any main rules to keeping low point consistent? As someone who can get very underplane coming down, is it at all possible to get "steep" into the ball to try to compenste for this? I noticed after reading this mornings discussion...

    Soft Draw backswing and no "popout"

    I seem to find it easy to take the club back inside yet still "popout" In trying to get this feel I held a sponge ball inbetween my elbows (other commercial sponge balls are available that I thought were useless ;)) and tried to keep it there, swing back inside to get the butt of the club...

    Winning with Manzellafied swing

    My wife and I won a tournament this weekend. I have to say foursomes with the other half is a real test and we won the handicap part of our clubs Open Foursomes tournament (just missed out on qualifying for the scratch matchplay) I have been working hard on the feel of a lagging clubhead...

    Alignment and plane lines

    I have read a lot of forum archive stuff here and all over the place lately (bit quiet on the teeth front) It is so easy to get sucked into one method it's untrue :( I had a TGM overload going on and it is VERY easy to not realise it is just a way of describing all motions, not a HOW TO...

    Judging forward lean, midsole pitching and other things......

    Hi everyone, I have a little obsession with golf gadgets, it used to be ANY gadget.... Now I am a little specific with them :D Sheriff going very well....I'm happy with putting practice so thats one short game base covered. I have the official TGM 3D impact bag ( like just now, like a kid at...

    Has the way golf courses are set up changed the need for as much forward lean?

    Just slowly making my way through the downloaded show.... Is it true that todays modern hard greens set up for the pros has brought about the need for this higher, lower spin shots that stop on a green that a "mashed" high spinning shot wouldn't? Is this why so many guys struggled at the...

    Is this float loading?

    After playing well this weekend I was thinking about some of the shots I had hit. I played in about a 40mph wind at Hoylake yesterday and hit a lot of "stinger" type shots. For this I felt there was a buch of forward lean at impact. Hit some great ones, hit some fat smelly ones too..... I was...

    Just received "The Sheriff"

    Well, aside from a minor issue of it losing the screws and bolt over the pond somewhere :) (easily bought from local hardware shop) I am stunned by what this has done in 20 minutes of use. My main putting problems..... Everyone says my stroke looks "nice". To me that's like me telling my wife...
