Last week, I had the opportunity to practice with mgranato and he graciously put me through the paces with flightscope and K-Vest. The results have been eye opening for me, to say the least. I have been on Trackman a few times before and felt like I had a good handle on path and face. We...

Ok, got the app yesterday and have been messing around with it since. High score = 91. Mostly have scores between 78-82. The hold up is peak time. Everything else is tour standard. Question is; what is peak time? How do I improve this metric?

Scenario: Dustin Johnson hits a rat hook into the bushes. The announce team shows a slow motion close up of the club head at impact, at impact the club head twists way open, Gary Koch and Miller say he twisted the club open to keep it from hooking more, they were all baffled that with the club...

Yes, indeed. Big 10 is the conference of slow and can't hang. Kind of like other golf forums that think they know, but don't.

Say what you want about his swing. Best putter I have ever had the chance to play with. Congrats to him.

Ted Potter with a golf swing only a mother could love wins yesterday. I know every golf swing can get hot and produce results. I am just wondering if this guy fights two way misses the way most people with a move like this probably would.

I have been hitting the golf ball very solidly as of late. I am not posting this to brag but to simply put thoughts to words and give some credit. I chronically suffer from underplane blocks and snappers, which also accompanies nirvana like ball striking, which leads to insomnia, which leads...

Hi guys, The club that I order all of my Titleist gear through has encountered some financial troubles and can no longer order equipment from Titleist. I have to go through a PGA pro or Titleist account to get the high school program discount. For some reason they will not give accounts to...

The past several months have been an exciting time in the forum at brianmanzella.com. The ideas on the release thread and subsequent videos and discussions have made a lot of progress in determining what really happens in the golf swing and how a person can really improve. One of the gems that...

Thought this might be a fun thread to discuss. Of course there will be the usual suspects like improved golf balls and clubs but could there be other reasons? I am inclined to agree with Byron Nelson when he stated a couple of years before he died that the biggest technological advancement in...

I got to spend all day yesterday at the PGA championship. Here are a few observations 1. Nobody cares about this major. This felt like a Nationwide event. Honestly, it is more exciting every year at East Lake and the Tour championship 2. The players HATE a lot of the redesigned holes 3...

Hi, Lately there have been a few threads that reference another instructors website, youtube account or other media outlet. This is Brian's site. While everyone here loves to discuss different theories out there, I would like to see direct links to other instructors media outlets to cease...

Brian has said many times that one thing in a golfers swing can be fixed and allow the golfers swing to start working properly. Brian recently suggested that I try to keep my right side straighter and not get into right side bend so soon in the downswing. Being a chronic underplaner I am prone...

Brian, have you thought about making an iPhone app that details the d-plane? I think it would be helpful to range rats like myself to have a sort of pocket app on their phone that illustrates what is necessary to hit different shaped shots I think it would a good range tool.

Recently, I have noticed something that allows me to hit it better. It is something Brian and I worked on in lessons, but not something I fully understood. Deeper arms in the back swing with a steeper shoulder turn. In reading the "Let the elbows seperate" thread, Brian said there would be...

Yesterday, I pulled a 4 wood into some trees (the old dive move at the ball creeps in every so often) Remembering the D-plane pic from this site, I set the club and my body to hit a draw according to the D-plane....what happened was a beautiful low draw around the tree and on the green from 175...

Today, I picked up my driver and 4 wood from being re-shafted (Axiv core Black 79 & 89 respectively). While I waited I hit some balls on the indoor "launch monitor" at PGA Tour Superstore in Kennesaw. Anyway, my club head speed according to this was 100 - 103, however my spin rates were...

I had my third lesson with Brian yesterday at Reunion in Braselton, GA. First off it was nice meeting Ryan Smither. He was giving a lesson to Mrs. Fabersham yesterday, so I didn't get to talk to him very much, he was trying to get her to hit it in the air. I hope it went well :) Brian took a...

What do you guys think. Instead of always looking in the past (i.e. the Hogan threads). Let's look forward. What will become of the golf swing? Please no references to the no back swing retarded garbage by TJ Tomasi I personally think that swings will look less dynamic in the future. As...

Have you guys seen this? It's awesome. Nearly every ping staffer with a face on and DTL view of their golf swings. Hunter Mahan Heath Slocum Bubba Watson Calc, etc., etc., etc. It's pretty cool, go to the pro_files section and click on swing. http://www.pinggolf.com/pingpros/
