    Body/accuracy-arms/power?

    Okay occasionally I venture into other forums to see what others are talking about and came upon this. Essentially it was stated that if you are too open at impact you are losing power because the right elbow is so far behind the hip and it was generalized that the more open you were the more...

    "You'll hit it worse for awhile"

    What's up with this? I know Brian has said he likes to make changes while not bastardizing what the student already has. In my first lesson with Brian he was going back and forth between my father and me and the lesson was over but Brian said " you're not leaving me hitting the ball like that"...

    Saw this and immediately thought of Brian

    This was posted in a science thread on a board that has nothing to do with golf but when I saw it it reminded me of Brian vs. most any teacher with something to sell. Thought others might enjoy it.

    I have a conspiracy theory

    Well not a conspiracy but I might have a figured out a swing pattern. Without naming names theres a pattern that keeps your weight left and turns your spine the wrong direction at the top which helps people swing left. Well say a couple guys learned this from the "master" that was working with...

    Is it me or does Sergio..

    have a lot of left lean? I thought I heard he was doing that at the open to play in the high winds but it seems that he's kept it. I couldn't find his old stats but 47th in driving distance this year? I thought he was long....

    Hogans hook

    Do you guys think early Hogans hook was a result of tremendous lag after you now understand the D-plane?

    Do you think

    NBC will have to move "The Office" from it's 9:00 slot to 8:00 as Manzella live grows in popularity on thursdays?:) But really great show Brian and crew, d plane was fascinating. Has the d plane always been known about? Quite simple when taught, so how come we've never heard about it?

    Is this right?

    Now that I'm on the turned shoulder plane at the top I feel like I can really start using my pivot. The question is do you guys feel pressure from the left arm against the left pec as you start down from the top? To me it feels as though the torso is pulling hard and the left arm is just pinned...

    Range suprise

    Last week I posted my swing which had my hands way above the turned shoulder plane at the top. Today I was at the range working on having them lower and hitting the ball really well. In front of me was a tall guy hitting drivers and grunting with each hit and not really hitting the ball that...

    My swing

    Taped this morning. Two summers ago Brian helped with not getting so steep in the transition, last summer he tried for 2 hours to get me to swing left but I could hardly do it. A year later I'm really happy with my plane line but I still have this nagging roll the left arm open deal with a raise...

    pivot question

    There's an instructor on another forum that is basically worshiped for his thought's on the swing (jim will know who I'm talking about) and I had a question about the pivot. First of all I'm of the belief that you snap your kinetic chain for power and it would have to start with the hip brake...

    Another possible urban legend debunked?

    I was thinking about how it's now been proven that you can't sustain the line of compression while watching golf and a commentator said something to the effect that in the U.S. Open Tiger has an advantage of being strong out of the rough. I was thinking if you can't sustain the line of...

    More repeatable pattern-draw or fade

    Well my grandpa swung right, my dad swings right and I swing right so I guess I got it honest but I envision myself hitting these high little baby fades. Mechanically do you guys think one is more repeatable than the other? I think the fade would be superior when talking about ball/turf contact...

    Swinging right=toe shots?

    Birdie man was talking about this happening to him in another post and I used to do the same thing. I'm sure there's a simple answer for this but I can't figure it out. Any ideas? Is it maybe because to raise up to not hit it fat, thus further away from the ball?

    Tiger's Head Movement

    Every single forum guy on this planet thinks they can fix Tiger by eliminating his head bob. My question is do you think it's just to much "sit down"? Or can it be traced back even further to an over aggressive start down? Or can he drive it well with this sit down if he changed something else?

    Swinging left and gaining distance?

    If you read my lesson review last week you know I was swinging to far to the right and Brian fixed me. Well I've been hitting balls at the range but couldn't tell how far they were going until today when I played. I set 4 personal best drives today and was just killing it. Now the question; is...
