Quick question for the instructors: When I really pay attention when practicing, I can feel my right hand come off the club slightly on my backswing and then again just after impact. If I concentrate on maintaining my grip through the swing I can keep it in during the backswing, but can still...

What is the best way to video and send a swing using the iPhone?

I spent a lot of time with my "mind" monitoring my right forefinger. Should I still have this finger separated from the rest of my hand? Even though we're not holding onto anything is it still an acceptable thing to monitor during the swing as it corelates to squaring the clubface?

I've been working in the new release swing again. Having trouble with thinned shots and misses right (pushes and even an occasional push slice). I've tried strengthening my grip, but have gotten to the point that it is seeming unorthodoxly strong. I feel like my new release almost has a...

Please let me know what you think and if I'm going in the right direction. This first video is my old swing. Not the prettiest, but it gets the job done decently. IMG_0215.MOV - YouTube This second video is me attempting the new release with bent arms at the top. However, I find my arms are...

I can't compute the hands away/club away and coupling point into any sort of workable swing. I look forward to the instruction. However- I have had success with "scrape the ball off the ground with a delofted club" and the "hit up on the ball with a driver and delofted club." Those are images...

I feel like I make more consistent contact with my hands slightly forward of the ball, but might not have as precise directional control. What is the recommended putting set-up? I know putting is personal etc, etc. But what is considered orthodox.

Here is my swing today. I previously was working on Brian's NSA, then SD. Recently I've taken a few lessons with Ben Doyle and so I have decided to go with his pattern. I haven't been able to see Ben for the last month and it will be a while before I'm able to get down to Carmel again, so i...

I recently took a lesson with Ben Doyle. His comment about my address and pivot was that I should think about a steel rod connecting my tail bone to neck bone. This image has been making me try to flatten out my back out and pivot around my spine such as in NSA. My question is: should my...

To what extent do you just make a swing and pretend the ball is not there, or let the ball get in the way? Versus aiming the first groove or leading edge just under the equator of the ball as a point of aim and swinging through the ball? I'm experimenting with both using SD pattern. I make...

YouTube - 8 01 09 swing 0001 I've been working on the soft draw pattern for a while now (doing a lot of the back and forth drill), but this is the first time I have video taped my swing since changing from NSA. Looking at my swing it seems like I am taking the club back too far because of a...

Brian and/or Academy Instructors, Thanks for all the information on this site and the videos. This is my first post, but I've been monitoring the forum for over a year. I just returned from 15 months in Iraq and within two weeks of being back I broke 80 for the first in my life using the the...
