Hi Max, Thanks for not putting me in a tough situation.

I saw the same thing with my 3D. I define the delivery position based on the max grip speed. What I saw clinically was that very few golfers moved the hands faster when they tried to. I foun…

I'm sure if you opened up the actual file, it would read with the proper labels. I'm guessing they are automatically generated for the report. The graph looks correct, but the label looks backward on that page. No, I've never seen anyone even close …

I've looked at so many of those reports that I'm surprised I never noticed that! Yes, that would be a typo. If you take the trail wrist graph, and remove the other variables, then it shows you the scale. See the attached photo. It shows positive is …

That does make sense. In fact, you might be describing something similar to this video I did back in the Denver days :)

Hi Adam,
Welcome to the site. As you can see, the issues in a swing are typically interrelated. There are a few things going on in your move. I'll address the specific issues, then a suggestion.

First, if you see the picture, the clubface is on th…

For others looking, I did a site video reviewing this product https://golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/review-downunder-board/

Hey Matt,
I'm sorry for the delay, I thought I answered your question last week. Anyway, I haven't seen a really clear definition of handle dragging. Perhaps you can share what you mean by that term? Once we have it pinned down, we can come up with …

For many tour golfers, the ulnar deviation does start quite early in the downswing. I think one of the big keys is that it's more of a relaxed or passive move. When a golfer tries to do it forcefully, that usually messes things up.

Also, look at y…

Hi Eugene,

Here's a video I did on ways to see ulnar deviation on video. Maybe it'll help tide you over until I can do a video with 3D graphs or video examples.

I would use impact spray and a couple of tees to make a putter gate. Have you tried this setup?

Hey Matt,
This is the best time to work on bigger changes like that. I'll try to help. Maybe you could post a swing here and we can identify the pieces to work through. While I hear the term thrown around, I've yet to see a really clear definition o…

Hi John,

I haven't seen any data on it specifically. Mechanically, a larger grip could restrict radial deviation, but wouldn't have a big influence on flexion/extension or pronatation/supination. I put a number of my older students in larger grips …

I agree with the causation and correlation thing. Hopefully, you find the answers you're looking for in my videos on this site :)

Ed,

Welcome back to the plan. As a regroup, I'd say more pressing than the path in transition is the alignment of the shaft at impact. That's WAY too much shaft lean for a driver. BUT, the clubface is square, so it means that you'll have to recali…

Garrett,

I don't mind being put on the spot :)

One thing I try to preach is that there is no magic feel for every golfer. Rather, what you need to focus on depends on where your swing is now and how it compares to your model. I think most instruc…
