I watched Doyle's tape again last night, and like the little yellow book, new nuggets are still being unearthed. I have been right forearm pickuping like a madman, and have forgetten, or outrun, the work of the pivot. He loves to have students swing a club against a raised ledge of a sand trap without the club rebounding. He says "tighten those buns." Anywho, last night I went out to my sidewalk to do some edging with a 5 iron. What a great feel. It feels like I could break the shaft. It is a slower, heavier feel. I call this the "west coast" tgm. Yoda, chuck are "east coast" hand-controlled pivot guys. Doyle and Mchatton are the Tupac and Snoop of tgm. Yoda and chuck are Biggie and 50cent. So like I say to my wife, "Baby, you east coast or west coast?"

Proud to be EAST coast with no rap. I think you might be underplaying the importance of the pivot that Yoda/Homer use in both swinging and hitting (talk about breaking shafts !). :D

No doubt. I recall a post of yoda's on another forum where he says go to impact fix, and pick up the whole assembly with the right forearm, and the feel was that my right forearm was pulling a long rubber band out of the ground. It is almost like the right arm drags my pivot. I just lost my focus.

A smack talkin, cajun coon *ss, ball-striking, strike ball teaching machine that is. The most refreshing thing ever to occur to me in a leeson was with femoore, when at the end he noted that I stayed on or below the plane back to the ball and he had a tough time getting through to over-the-toppers. He wanted to know any swing thoughts I used he could possibly pass on. Brian, I admire the fact that you say "this is what i believe, so knock it off my shoulder with reason and logic and I'll refine my beliefs." I will not knowingly go to a golf instructor who doesn't still have a critical eye on his or her own swing. By the way, I told Femoore, "I swing under the stick. And also try to emulate the p.g.a. logo. "Just a little swing key I ehm hehm made up. Thanks man. Press on.

Afraid to ask who Shug Night is in all of this.

Hopefully no one.... a scary dude indeed.

Met Snoop a couple times, and if Mchatton is snoop, I hope he doesn't smoke as much dope (snoop set off a fire alarm during a meeting with the CEO)
