Hi Matt,

I agree that your p6 position is more of an issue than the top. Backswing might have a little bit of a sway but nothing red flag worthy.

With the p6 position, You have a few moves complimenting each other. Your upper body has moved a goo…

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the description of what you experience with EE. And yes, if it's totally low point drive, it usually doesn't show up as much with the driver.

Looking at these short and slow-motion swings, I can see what you're noticing with y…

Hey Tim,

Thanks for the reminder. At the TPI Summit last fall, I talked with the owner about the product. It sounded interesting but it hadn't launched yet. I had kinda forgotten about it and your question reminded me to follow up with him. I will…

Zach,

It's hard to speak for why other coaches promote the patterns and explanations they do. Most never show their work on how they got to the conclusions they did, so we have to just take their advice at face value. On that note, I can't really …

Hi Joe,

Thanks for checking out the program. You have a pretty solid move and I think you have a pretty good assessment of your swing, but I can see why you might get caught with some early extension and release concerns. I wouldn't say that your …

Hi Zach,

Yes, looks less hooky. What did you figure out?

Happy Golfing,

Hi Zach,

If you were to preserve some internal rotation, I think the main benefit would be having more range of movement to move into external rotation. The downside of going internal is that it could encourage scapular elevation and upward rotati…

Hi Garbriel,

I think you're not alone with struggling to develop more of a body vs arm driven swing. In theory, they have to work together. I like the analogy of pushing a shopping cart. When you push the shopping cart, you use your legs/feet, you…

Hi Jai,

Without the face on, it will be a little hard to tell exactly what's going on with the arms. From the down the line, the arms don't look too bad as far as right arm in front, perhaps a little earlier ulnar.

The club just before impact is…

Hi Matthew,

When deciding what to work on, I usually go off of how a swing looks, how a swing feels, and how a swing performs. I almost always start with some type of performance goal before recommending any technical change. It's more important f…

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm still figuring some of them out and how to teach their awareness better. But it's definitely on my radar of ideas I want to organize and promote.

Stay tuned,

Tyler

Hi Jai,

For your question on early extension. I think looking at your pattern, it seems like your early extension is a lack of turtle shell. It looks like you are overusing your lower back instead of your abs. So it's the blend of late transition …

Yes, the release and transition are definitely intertwined, so they will often have shared breakthroughs. But overall, looks pretty good demonstration of the drill.

Happy golfing,
Tyler

Hi Jai,

You're welcome. Thanks for the kind words, glad you're enjoying it.

I think you have a good assessment of the situation. I'd work on the combo of early extension and flippy at the bottom. I'd probably tackle the early extension first in …

Hi Zach,

The squish the bug still looks like the core is disconnected from the lower body movement. Or rather, it's connected more in extension than it is through flexion/deeper core. Oftentimes I try to teach this concept through gym exercises fi…
