Question - I just googled 5SK This is a place to find an instructor - I had the impression you were talking about a forum of some sort. I'll do some more research into 5SK, and thank you for the help (My instructor has basically turned me from a bad golfer into a worse golfer, and I am starting to understand why so many people are giving up on golf - they pay an instructor tons of money and see little to no improvement or in my case they end up worse then when they started). This is why I wanted to do the research on my own and regain my kind of bad game (At least it was enjoyable hitting 3 over par on average).

Thank you all for the responses. I didn't realize it would bring up such ill feelings towards this company. I can say that some of the ideas I saw in the video do seem a bit out there, or stretching, but I figured that was because I didn't understand them. However, I did some research on alignment in the golf swing, and a lot of what they're saying is true. I should have directed my questions to the idea of measuring knee angle and alignment. The reason I'm asking is because I was looking for more control with my golf swing, and I've been taught to restrict my swing - which in turn has taken yards off of my drive. The video is saying that not restricting your backswing and focusing on your alignment and stability will give you the distance with the accuracy. I have been practicing the last few days on keeping my hands on plane at address, and fixing my alignment - it has been successful, but it also is pushing my comfort with my swing. I do know if I want a good swing I need to give up the comfort. Anyways, I'm really overwhelmed with all the negative comments I got back, so maybe you guys can help me here.. How do I drive the ball farther and more accurate (Without restricting my backswing)?

I found this video over the weekend. I sat down and watched it from beginning to end. It brings up some good points, and got me thinking that there's more to the golf swing than going out and hitting balls at the range untill my hands get sore. I just wanted to know if anyone has any success with this company as a golfer? Are there theories on swing mechanics true? Thank you!
