Well, a simple rule is that solid contact comes from path and curve comes from face-to-path. So if you're not worried about hitting it far, you only have two variables to try and solve.

In your scenario, one simple guideline is that transition rev…

For sure, and also make sure to wipe sunscreen off your hands before you hold them!

I have not seen or tried the planemate yet. In theory, it might help with arcwidth, but I haven't tried it and am unsure on the anchor point and how it would influence the feeling during the release.

Comment below if you have any other grip saving techniques!

Hey Scott,

I got a chuckle from the analogy. Thanks. But here's the challenge with the analogy. In Algebra, there is one right answer. In golf, there could be many. Let me explain. There are three main variables - Path (solid contact), Face to Pat…

Thanks. I'm sorry to hear about your injury. But yes, if you do get a clip, I'd love to see it :)

Here are a few: In general, you have two options big options - Axis Tilt and Unhinging. I hope this helps!

Gotcha. Yea, I thought you were talking about the trail arm with both.

For me, the big concept you're discussing is balancing steeps and shallows. Every move in the system has some flexibility, but if you want solid contact, you need to balance yo…

Personally I think in-plane is cleaner to imagine than alpha, beta, gamma. So I generally prefer those terms. As far as in-plane squaring, the further down the plane the club goes the more that it will close to the target. Another way of thinking of…

I don't mind the right hand off the club drill. It's probably in the same family as the open right hand and shadow drills that I use frequently. I've actually never seen a golfer let go with the lead hand. If you have a video of it, I'd love to see …

Scott,
No one knows for sure, but it's my guess that the open alignment was developed to compliment his arm movements. The shallow arm movements would shift the path in to out, but this is usually balanced by body rotation. In Lee's case, he adds ex…

Yes, I think it's easy to get that perspective. But the data shows about 1.5 to up to 2x bodyweight. Think about it, if they were jumping as hard as they can, they would probably get higher than a couple of inches ;) In my perspective, the amount ca…

My goal with the GSA framework is so that you can look at a move, compare it to the model, and decide if it's something that would benefit your game. Typically, the squat and rotate feeling is a good feeling for some elite junior golfers. They typic…

Joel, stepping drills are a great way to add speed. Many amateurs have an idea in their head that they have to use their legs hard like doing a vertical jump, but the amount of force is much lower (about the same force as jogging). The key is the ti…

Greg is right. The unhinge is a key piece when combined with the other pieces. Each person finds keys that help them do as many of the key moves automatically.
