Especially the last sentence, considering the entire article teaches you how to hit 'double-cross draws'.

Yeah. That's just insult to injury. To me (and I think just about everyone?) a "double cross" is when you intend to curve the ball one way and it goes the other. So a double cross on the 10th at Augusta where "the only option is a 20 yard draw" ends up in the right trees, not the left.

Remember guys:

"I believe in having my Ph.D in impact, and the inch afterwards, and I think that's what you should do too. That way, when you hit it good, it's not a big surprise. It's not like 'Well, my timing's good today.' "

I don't want to put the blame entirely on Miller, but I studied the heck out this video series (plus I was taking lessons from a reputable instructor on the top of Golf Magazine lists), practiced a lot, didn't improve that much, hit a lot of hooks and quit the game cold turkey for 3-4 years.

I like how this guy is teeing the ball up and not coming close to taking any turf.  Oh yeah and his right leg releases flex in the close up view.

HaHa, I'm still trying to figure out if I need to buy special shoes with red bottoms for this swing. I do like that my swing will become health-ier.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I likely know less about the golf swing than the vast majority of people on this site, but that strikes me as a really good way to encourage you to keep all your weight on your back side......

Yeah the drill makes it kinda hard to get the weight forward at impact, among other things.
