    What the Golfer CAN and CAN'T do during Impact

    Hinge Action, Rate of Closure, and what you SHOULD do with the clubface (p9 pic)

    Fredrik Tuxen said to me today in a 30 minute Skype conversation: A perfectly straight ball (no side-spin) would actually have an impact have about about a 0.4° closed face at mid-impact interval (the point near maximum compression when the ball gets its programming) and a 0.7° inside-out...

    The Hits just keep on coming...Kevin Shileds wins PGA TriState Teacher of the Year!

    I remember when he called me in December of 2006 looking for some help with his game. He was thinking about getting out of the golf business altogether, and had gone inactive in the PGA Apprentice program.

    My Week at the 2012 Masters
