Can anyone explain to me what affect hand size has on grip style (overlap, double overlap, interlock, etc)? I've read that it does, but don't recall ever having read why it does? Why are big hands better suited for overlapping grips? Is there a real reason, besides tradition?

During my final few rounds, I was playing a nice little fade, and was hitting the ball good for me (gave up on Bubba golf; way too hard :) ). It was working through the bag, and my driver became my best and absolute favorite club. I would hit it with confidence anywhere, no matter how tight it...

After an almost 10 year run, I'm finally replacing my 975d. What do I need to know going into it? What should I expect, and how do I get the most out of it?

I hit Trackman Monday, and it looked to me (as usual) that I was spinning it too much with my irons. My question is, in comparing my numbers to the pro numbers on the TM site, should I look to optimize my spin by comparing my 5 iron to the pros 5 iron spin rate, or do I match the spin rates up...

...and put my swing up for scrutiny. A little background: Been playing since about 2000, but haven't been out as much as I would like. Played less than 10 rounds the last 3 years (injuries, unemployment, young children; the trifecta baby!). Best score is a 94 shot last year. When I'm...

Anyone have any tips on how to calm an overly active left arm (right handed golfer)?

Does anyone have any ideas regarding how a large, rapid weight loss will affect the golf swing? Any experiences dealing with this, from either the instructor or player perspective?

This is primarily directed at the instructors, especially the Manzella Academy guys, but anybody can chime in. Have you guys run across players who have had too much turn for their particular swings, where you've actually had to have them turn less to make a better golf swing?

Just finished watching the youtube video regarding Trackman practice. If you're using a version of Trackman that only provides launch data, how do you use it to zero out? What are some of the things that you have to be aware of in order to properly use this model of TM without falling into...

During the release/pre-impact/impact interval, as the hands are rotating: -Does the right hand "orbit" the left hand? -Does the left hand "orbit" the right hand? -Do both hands "orbit" an point between the two? Know what I mean?

Over the winter I worked on flattening my swing and had had my lowest round ever my first time out (5 strokes better than my best round on the same course, putting terribly). My contact has improved a bunch as well as my flight. Also, after my round on the range, I was working on different...

I normally play with a very strong grip, and basically hold the face off. Was at the range, and someone got me to weaken my grip and allow the face to open in the backswing, and close it during the downswing. The results? I was compressing the heck out of the ball. I've played around with...

I have a question in light of Calc's birdie record this weekend. Calc, among some other players, is known for going really low, knocking out birdies in bunches, when he gets it going. And there are quite a few guys out there who have shot super low rounds (59-61) who have barely sniffed the...

I know it's not ideal. But for those of you who have done this successfully (without being able to see the ballflight), how were you able to do it? I have a setup in my garage, which is what I'll be using primarily (won't be playing much due to a new baby and unemployment). Just wondering how...

If I were to decide to go exclusively to a fade, do I have to just live with distance loss, or is there a way to hit one without losing a significant amount of distance?

Can you use the D-plane concept to determine how much curvature a shot will have? If so, how?

After struggling with this silly game since '00, and not getting to play as much as I would like, I've finally broken 100, and I did it on a course that eats my lunch (and golf balls) on a regular basis. I shot a 97, which included a back 9 46 (the back nine is the more difficult, and I never...
