  2. hogan advised a grip with the trail hand (your right hand) having pressure in the middle and ring finger for proper contact. so you might be pressuring incorrectly with the thumb and pointer finger? that's what i think it might be
  3. It looks like you use the hands and arms to much to initiate the swing, then bring the upper body in too late. That might be what gets the right arm a bit too far back.
  4. I think he also doesn't want his analysis to be drawn more to your ass than necessary
  5. It doesn't help me, seems like it would hurt since most people don't putt with the eyes right over the ball or perfectly in the line of the putt so it won't look right, imo
  6. I don't play soccer but this sounds great
  7. Wow. I am impressed, getting it over the water no problem like that
  8. I wouldn't practice with only one club, unless you were working on distance control or something driver related, like trying to teach yourself to not overswing
  9. I like the different pics of people b and a of key#4... the 5SK system isn't a cookie cutter swing. The DSP isn't exactly the same for everyone.
  10. Sounds like me at the driving range vs the course! :) as cliche as it is... it's just the head. It's easy to hit at the ball instead of swing at the ball when it's a real ball
  11. How on earth do you hit a 7i with a crisp downward strike that only goes 10 yards?
  12. He probably lifts 2-3 days a week... not that much but half hour 2-3 tines a week with enough protein can get you muscles like that (if you know how to lift properly)
  13. It's not if you're a lefty ;) I think he's meaning a fade that is played, so it's fades to the target? But of course is right of target (starting) line.
  14. Make sure he understands the real ball flight laws for sure. I wouldn't sign up for more than a lesson or two... a lot of teachers are just good players. They aren't necessarily good at teaching. Also, consider lessons thru evolvr. These guys know what they're talking about here.
  15. Tiger woods does not average 125. I don't even have to look it up. And just because you didn't say 300 doesn't mean we wouldn't assume it. Bubbas 128 mph club head swing easily goes over three hundred, so saying you have 130 mph club head speed seems pretty ridiculous. Let's get back to topic.
  16. Also, I see you said you'd prefer a right to left ball flight, but there is a point where you should give up on finding a shape that is preferred, and playing what is natural for you, so make sure not to worry about that too much
  17. I would like to see a video of your 16 y.o. 130 mph club head speed, would love to see how to achieve bubba like numbers.
  18. I think putting is a great start, but what will really lower your scores is being able to hit greens, so it is not necessarily good to only practice putting for awhile. there is a great thread on here about practice times, but it basically recommends 65% of time long game 25% short game 10% putting
  19. I like watching this video: Tiger in the good ol' days, great tempo
  20. Good point. In my high school team, I and 2 other players had never played golf before... so 3/5 players on the team had never played. We had to be taught. But on a team with golfers who have played a lot, coach shouldn't teach swing and such
  21. I think so. I used to do the same thing, on anything where I opened the face. Because my body was aligned to cut across the ball, I always did. I adjusted to swing inside out (towards the target, instead of cutting across) and fixed the axis tilt and let me land it soft without releasing sideways. Once I started feeling the pitching method Erik and mike advocate, that helped too.
  22. If you fade it the same amount every time I wouldn't try to fix it. I would play for the fade, makes it easy to hit the green. Aim away from the pin and play it.
  23. Nice! Beautiful course too. Looks like you're improving, keep up the good work.
