Thanks for these videos.  I like Miller's thinking on the swing and how to deliver the club to the ball.  I especially like his "wall" idea.

I didn't see it in the videos here (I might have missed it) but on the Golf Fix last week, Miller talked about how to ensure you hit with a forward shaft lean, and made contact before hitting the turf.  He said to make sure the butt of the club penetrated through the wall before contact.  I tried that image at the range, and it really seemed to help me make more solid contact with no flipping. Maybe that visual image has been around, I just had never heard it before.

One thing on the first video that I had never heard before is in the grip leaving a one finger width gap between the middle finger and forefinger of the right hand being a source of power.  As a short hitter I am always looking for ways to increase distance without meddling too much with the swing.

So I'm wondering if anyone out there does this in their grip and whether you think it could be a source of extra power?

I have been looking for the Johnny Miller Golf Swing instruction video on youtube, I guess someone took it off. Do you know where I can find it, I don't see any videos on this thread now.Thanks
