Using Stack n Tilt PLUS conventional swings

[Jspin]

Hi Erik, don't get irate with me, not bashing S&T; just sharing my experience and hoping for help. Love to make stack n tilt work out as I feel that my iron play is 100% better and if I can get the driver technique down and move towards the swing  with all my clubs I have a feeling I'd drop 5-7 strokes at least. Intellectually the swing's principles make absolute sense to me compared with the tenets of conventional instruction. Maybe when the weather gets better, I will make another run at it.

I'd rather not reply with this person's name on the internet because he's a good guy, that really tried hard to help me, even threw in some freebies. Note I was not critical of his efforts, maybe it's something I'm not picking up.  I think you as a teaching professional can understand that.

Instructor and I kept working at it but eventually went back to the conventional method as playing with 2 techniques on the course never realy worked out. Also, started feeling a twinge and slight pain in my front knee using the technique that went away when I abandoned the method.

And the name of your "SnT instructor" is what? I ask because I know them and they're good, and I doubt they'd have you topping the ball with your driver and fairway woods.

Nobody's irate. I asked you who you worked with, because in my experience there are a fair number of people who claim to know the pattern but who don't, and since I know virtually all of them I can say fairly confidently that they'd not have you topping your fairway woods and driver.

And no, I absolutely do not agree. If you want to PM me privately with his name, that's one thing, but to not share his name at all is exactly the kind of thing that lets lousy instruction continue.
