Sorry but Michael Breed is a very poor teacher and even worse as a tv personality. Also, no one on tour is using him nor do they give him any credibility.

He has a couple touring pros that he teaches, but it's not top players. I don't think he's a poor teacher. If he was that bad, I doubt he would have made it this far. The show is too fast, but I think that's the idea. To get as much information as possible across in 30 minutes. I don't agree with that approach and think it would be much better to spend 30 minutes on one single topic, but the show is still on so someone's watching evidently.

The Golf Channel use to dedicate Mondays to a show called "your game night". They had different teachers of the game on the show, and it was over a couple of hours so it was not rushed.

I wish that they would bring that show back on!

I agree with this last part of the above quote; he goes so damn quickly that it is tough to pick up key learning points. Think if you had a teacher in school that went at his pace.... would be pretty tough to learn from him. I think the show would be much better if he tried to cover half as much but did a more thorough job of what he was getting across.

oh come on ... really ? how many classes in school did you have that were 30 minutes once a week and covers what is basically 10-15 different topics. He has to go as fast as he can, to get in as much as he can to help as many people as he can...

Big difference. I didn't pay attention in class. I do during lessons.

Golf Channel runs many shows multiple times during the week. Surely they could find room to give him an hour and slow the pace.

I can't watch him, I need a more intellectual approach. As I said before he sounds like he is selling Shamwows.

I don't like it. I prefered Golf Channel Academy when Peter Kesler did it. Too bad they canned him.

    • God I hate when golf can’t give me n+1 day of success. Drives me up the wall when my body is, FU! Im like, ok let’s check the vid. Yep too much turn, arms getting behind me. Ok, I work on that. Get the feel back for a shorter swing. Confirm with video. Then going back to arms down stuff.  Arms down, nope it’s hands out towards the ball. Oh, you get arms down better. Guess what, you don’t get to rotate and you hit 6 inches behind the ball. Yay!  Maybe I should have walked off the range and not wasted my time. I wish there was a body alert system when it’s going to a SOB for the day. 😭 OK rant over, I’ll be back at this tomorrow.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
