Where does extensor action end and forearm tension begin. Whenver I try to apply extensor action I feel like my right arm tightens. Where is the balance or how do you know you are applying the extensor action properly.

This is still the one area where the fog has not completely listed. I have a problem with the "timing" of this component. Any idea's?and how do you know if you are doing it right?

Some of you may have been like me and 1000's of other "hackers"; you tried real hard to put together some resemblence of a golf game. You took some spot lessons from any PGA professional - you didn't know that not all instruction and instructors are the same. You tried every "flavor of the...

I cannot hit my driver or any other fairway wood. My irons are sizzling and I am very happy with the results (most of the time). I cannot hit a driver to save my life. Most will go blocked right or slice even when I'm trying hard to hit the inside of the ball. When I try to concentrate on the...

Let's say their was a little yellow book about kicking (field goals or kickoffs). It would list all the components on how to kick a ball: how to hit it straight, how to "curve it", etc. It would have at least 3 imperatives and would talk about different kicking planes (waist plane, knee plane...

Have you watched the 1st episode of Big Break IV - Eurpoe VS US. The Euopeans kicked butt last night - The US put on an embarrassing performance. Hue, Did you know any of those Europeans on the show? One was a former Bristish Amateur Champ.

One of Ben Doyle's imperatives is that you do not move the club backward (or downward) with your hands or arms but with the pivot. Does Right Forearm Pickup contratict Ben's teaching?

The school was worth every penny. The sound of a compressed golf ball coming off my clubface is burned into my brain – It felt so “powerful” yet so effortless – the holy grail in the game of golf. I know I have allot work ahead but knowing the work I am doing is going to produce desired long...

I look forward to the TGM camp in Atlanta next week. I thought I'd give everyone a "before" picture so an "after" picture may have more meaning. I swung the golf club "wrongly" since I was 16 years old and never really understood the "right" way until about 2 years ago - I am a "young 52"...

I just recently understood what the heck everyone was talking about by putting the RF on plane and using a RFP technique. I tried it 2 days ago during my golf league and although it felt really "weird" to me I had good results. I had great contact but some problem with accuracy - I assume...

I'm willing to "bunk" (share lodging costs) with anyone (non-smoking) attending the Atlanta event. For those who are flying in will ahre rental car too......let me know. Ray Rbaum0519@aol.com

I really am hoping that the TGM school in Canton is more like a boot camp where all the concepts that I've been learning on my own are "drilled" into me. I'm picturing Ben saying "We've been over this 10 times, do you think you can it right this time ? If not you can drop and give me 10"...

Can someone put the "flying wedges" concept into layman's terms and talk about the drills used with the dowels. Thanks Ray

I was reviewing some old notes I took regarding swing tempo and one of the "visuals" mentioned was to imagine the shaft extending from your hands through the center of your chest. During the swing try to keep the butt of the club pointed to the center of your chest. Is that still a valid...

I've been working allot more on my putting after finally realizing that many strokes can be saved by having a good putting stroke. I read Brian's article on rolling the rock and found it to be most helpful. Another thing I started practicing was looking at the cup as I putted rather than...

I'm having trouble teaching my son to swing inside out. He cannot do it. I've video taped him several times and he is still hitting outside (cutting) actoss the ball. How to you teach this move? What are some good drills?

I saw an infomercial for a product that's used to get golfers to swing to the inside of the ball - demo'd and endorsed by Jack Nicholas. I rememberd Brians technique of having a partner hold a club shaft 6 inches behind the ball about 4 inches off the ground that simulated this device. Brian...

Can you guys talk (again) about an easy way to hit a fade. Hue, I know you mentioned you discovered a "new" method......

OK, I'm a slow learner - how would you explain/teach the aiming point concept to a "slow learner"
