Thanks Brian. Near the end of the video you mention that all great players are in a bent right/flat left position coming into the ball. Redgoat hasa great picture of David Toms in this exact position. One of my favorite photos to look at. It should be your logo!

Great stuff!

The towel plane board is AWESOME. If anyone wants to learn how far left they need to swing, just watch this video.

I like the towel plane board a lot. I used to use a range bucket occasionally to prevent coming from the inside too much but the towel plane board is much better.

Excellent

I use a homemade 8x4 wood monster at my range....I think I'm gonna logo some bath towels and sell them in the shop

Very nice... For several years I have wondered about this towel plane board. I have used a rolled up towel, but never did I consider to shaping the one side to the plane angle. Have to try it, that appears to be a great idea. My thoughts are that on chipping this might actually be the most benefical to some of the unique chipping strokes I have witnessed...

Great, Thanks Brian

Brian, your marketing instincts need work. You should have sold the blue plane boards first, made a killing, then posted this video Thanks for all the free info on this site.

People will still buy it just like they buy the original inside-approach instead of making their own.

LOL, I bought one of the originals off e-bay. Figured my time was worth more than $10 over materials that I paid.

I can't download the video - any suggestions?

 

[Mr Inconsistent]

roll up a towel, set it inside the ball, run your hand across it for the desired plane angle.

list of inside approach materials: one coat hanger.

cmartin, a 4 by 8 wooden monster out on the range? I like it.

1. Bend.
2. Stick in ground.

I like.
