    Pull Hooks with Driver

    Just a refresher question here. I'm hitting everything solid and all clubs are push draws and slight straight draws except driver. Driver is an unplayable pull hook. Generally speaking that is a path issue first? I'm using IATR as my pattern.

    NHA and Going Normal with the driver

    I drift back to NHA periodically to get rid of my pull hooks with driver. I can hit all other clubs beautifully with the pattern but I don't like hitting down on the driver. I vaguely remember on a Wiseguys video how to blend NHA and going normal. I can't remember the details of it. Brian...

    Smash Factor

    Ok went to PGA Superstore in Plano to hit some Exotics 3 woods, my numbers below E8 beta 15' loft, 70g aldila stiff 94.5 avg CHS. No tee 220 avg carry. (The last 4 I carried 227-229) Avg smash 1.40 I was hitting these well, similar to on course and made my purchase. I had some time to kill...

    Am I the only one?

    Am I the only one who feels completely different things when swinging with a noticeable plane shift (Sergio) and one without (IATR)? I can do either for a time and the Sergio feels nothing like IATR. For example, with IATR I can almost close the gap from the top with an all Alpha feel. I do...

    Question about over pivoting/sliding

    Ok bear with me on the long read. Currently, at my course the range is being seeded and sanded so they move the whole thing up for two weeks. This temporary location is mostly uneven where my front (left) foot is slightly higher than the back. From this spot I am a machine, mashing...

    New Mizuno Irons

    I am thinking of getting a new set of irons this year. I have had my original AP2's for 5 years now and love them, but they are pretty worn. I have always liked Mizuno irons so does anyone have any recommendations? I play between a 5-6 and am not a fan of cavity backs.

    Tell me about your game

    I love this game. I love it so much that spend hours playing practicing and researching the swing. I have played since 1997 and am currently a 4.9. Above average driver, chipper and putter. Really weak with irons. Have never been able to consistently hit them. When I play I usually impress...

    I need some help with my downswing and arm drop

    Ok, I start my BS with a slight step on the right foot. I try to get a 90’ shoulder turn with my left shoulder under my chin. I feel like my clockwise pelvis movement works naturally ahead of my transition. At the top through the DS I feel the underhand javelin feel while my chest faces my...

    Uneven Lie helps underplane?

    Hey folks I found something interesting during my last round on Sunday. The two most solid, best trajectory shots I hit on the day were from uneven lies. The first was uphill and the second slightly down/sidehill. What I noticed is that in both cases I was unable to ‘engage’ my body in the...

    What out toss do I need?

    I am trying to figure out where I belong in regard to the out toss. Brian has said in multiple threads that the out toss idea from IATR is not for everyone and not for those players who already have some toss or cast built into their swing. Well, I have never been a handle dragger. Never had...

    Club spec question

    Why would there be such a difference between a titleist ap2 player club 7 iron loft (35 degrees) and a game improvement club of 31 degrees? What is the standard loft for a 7?

    Tumble and Late Tugging

    For clarification, what is the 'late tug' in reference to IATR? Is it a sudden pulling/dragging once you have started a good tumble? In other words, I feel that I have done 90% of the pattern correct, but the feeling of the tumble is really powerful and I don't trust it enough to continue. I...

    Barclays at Bethpage

    Am I the only one who is growing tired of the jerkwads in the gallery every time they have an event there?

    Does this thought about connection make sense?

    In the context of the new findings it is desirable that the arms and hands feel like they are moving independent of the turning torso on the downswing? More specifically, I seem to be feeling that my arms are getting a head start on the DS while my hips ‘stay turned’ for a fraction of a second.

    Thinking about donating the bag and clubs to the pond............

    Ok so I am at a crossroads. I am carrying around my little 6.4 and am as unhappy playing this game as I have ever been. Why? Because I can’t hit a 7 iron 160 yards. I know that some of you would look at that statement with confusion so let me elaborate a bit. I am 5’10 200, and am pretty...

    Almost there.......I think

    I am making some good progress with the new release and have developed a nice little bent left arm at the top that I try to use to pull the quiver. I seem to be losing it just after that somewhere and was wondering a couple things: 1. What do you do when you 'run out of left arm' pulling the...

    Are we being fooled a bit by 'tour' greens?

    I watch a ton of PGA golf and focus much of my attention on putting strokes. It seems to me that no matter the stroke, these guys get the ball rolling perfectly immediately. Now, I have been playing around with different techniques trying to get the ball rolling better and nothing works as...
