Well worth a watch if you missed it the first time around on PBS.

Thanks for the link. That was really interesting.

Tim Clark, eh? Too bad they couldn't go into more specifics, but it is Charlie Rose, not the Golf Channel. Now I'm definitely going to give the book a second look when I'm at B&N.;

It was interesting seeing how they were straddling the line - trying to make their point but not tick off too many people at the same time. Not possible.

I just recently noticed, Charlie Rose is on Hulu now if you're looking for a second source.

I'm a little surprised they didn't mention Sean O'Hair. Sergio and Tim Clark are pretty good examples though.

Here's the rumor: Sean Foley, Sean O'Hair's teacher, is teaching O'Hair S&T; straight from the DVDs. Sean is almost as close to the S&T; model as Charlie Wi... and Johnny Miller and a bunch of other people gush about how good Sean's swing is.

It goes to show what putting a label on something can do.

Yeah, thats what i was talking about. Wasn't there a Golf Digest or Golf Magazine article where they interviewed his instructor? IIRC they basically said everything about S&T except the works Stack and Tilt.

I haven't got a clue what you're talking about!!!! P.S. Seriously, it's written by "Sean Martin"? How many freakin' Seans does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Nice interview. They looked a bit nervous at the start. I thought they did a good job of explaining that you can use some of the elements.

I've been focusing in on Pro player swings a lot since I've read the book. I see a lot of players using most of the principles. Especially, right leg straightening and spine tilt to the left at the top.

Critics are a normal occurrance whenever a new way of teaching appears. Just ask Copernicus, Galileo, Newton, Einstein, Hubble and Darwin.

Hubble does not belong in that list.

I watched most of the interview on tv and it was interesting.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
