Two things....
1) A Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours!
2) I see you talking, but can't hear it (I can hear a background buzz as the swing plays). Is there supposed to be sound?

PS-It took me a minute to figure out, but I like ISRAD!

Italian Stallion Research and Development.
The first shot "down the line" went in the ball out on the range at 160yards.
The second shot one bounced into the flag I was aiming at, about 165.
I'm coming.....

Brian is there any way you can put these vids up other than in Quick Time, please. I run Windows 98 and QT won't have a bar of it now. They have a fix but not for W. 98, unfortunately for me.
what do you feel you are doing differently?

welllllllll...
...i can't figure out what you're feel like you're doing...as far as what it looks like you are doing differently, i can't find an old swing video...

I was looking for ya'll to try to figure it out.

I am REALLY swinging.
And I seem to be the only person who has figured out what REAL SWINGING is.
Well, Ernest Jones probably did.
Soooooo, what I mean is AMONG TGM-ites.

Your talent really shines at impact and low point, looks good.
Looks like a bit too much upper body movement both ways.
Coming a little on the inside during takeaway may be causing the head to move up and forward as you shift plane to the top.
Do you think you could have the same amount of control and power with hands a little lower at the top?

That's why I can teach as well as I do....I know better.
Only if you know what to look at, many would like the Manzella 4-barrel Impact look better.
This one IS better though.....but why?
Nope.
Too little flexibility.
Ball has NO IDEA.
Absolutely, positively incorrect.
I show you a Pattern of mine where I took it STRAIGHT up the plane and lift my spine MORE.
In-flexible and the ball doesn't know....
Absolutely, positively not.

Missing the point....
The point was to have people who have seen a few of my patterns, try and figure out WHY this one hits it 15-25 longer.
I'll put one or two of them up for comparison sake.

sounds like to me...
...that you have figured out how to maximze acceleration during impact->separation!...if you are REALLY swinging then i'd say you have swiveled the clubhead so you are moving your hands, the shaft and the clubhead "on plane"...

Not a bad answer, but...
I HAVE learned to " maximize acceleration"....but where...and how....it does have something to do with a swivel through.

Well it looks like to me you are playing with a semi-closed stance (you looked similar when you were in town), it looks like your pivot is much more active, and it also looks like you aren't swiveling AS MUCH after the ball versus some of the other swings.
But honestly, i think you're hitting it further because you weigh less

ok, here goes...11/06 version looks:
-a little more upright with hands closer to body
-double shift, finishing on elbow plane (vs. single shift on TSP earlier)
-hips more open and hands accelerating more thru impact
-release seems later (should lead to inc acceleration thru impact)
-all in all you seem to be "swiveling" more aggresively thru impact in the later clip rather that to impact in the earlier

Brian,
I think that you've let go of the desire to have the flatest left wrist in golf AND trying to sustain the LOC at and through impact, rather trusting that those things WILL happen if you prepare for them and allow them to happen.
So you're letting the club free wheel 'more'...more of a swinger perhaps?

Invisible exertions
Brian, you are asking to look for what Perfect Impact calls ‘invisible exertions’. However what I do notice is a subtle upper body movment towards the target during the transition. Also the shoulders rotate back before the club had time to come down a bit from the top.
When fooling around it seems that I can get a few more mph making sure to let all tension flow out of wrists, arms and, shoulders. I just keep a vivid mental image of the hands beating the clubhead to impact. It seems to produce more of a free centrifugal swing with minimum interference.
