What do you think of this Golden Egg video?

Just curious what everyone's thoughts were on this video I saw on youtube today.

Key #3, Flat Left Wrist? Nobody teaches that ;-) He also spelled "piece" wrong, wrist supination and flexion are two different motions, and 12 minutes is way too long for an instructional video that has no audio commentary :-)

Yea it is pretty long I was more interested in the comparison of the baseball impact zone and the golf impact zone.

You never know. For the right person, this might be video that gets them to the next level. I wouldn't discredit any golf instruction. I might not agree with it, or understand it, but I'd never discredit it.

As for the comparison to the base ball swing, when I was in college our baseball coach did not want us swinging a golf club. He told us that even thought the swings were similar, if we played much golf, our baseball swing would tend to have us swinging below the ball at anything above our knees.  He also went on to say the only good thing the golf swing had in relation to baseball, was that it would be easier to hit low, out side pitches when using a bat.

Couldn't tell you. I quit playing baseball when I was 11. My head moved around too much in my swing and it made it hard to make consistent contact. Was great when I timed it well, but wasn't fun when I didn't hit well. Just like golf :-D
