Re: (Q1.) Proper Pivot, (Q2.) Howto support lower back with a stress releasing swing, (Q3.) Sequentially, smoothly perform whole swing in one motion.

Hi Dave,

1) With most swing questions a video of your swing is usually helpful. Most of us aren't great at describing a movement accurately. So, for example, you said, "I find it difficult to sequence getting my knees to come together." There are m…

Re: Return of Heel Contact

Hi Gabriel,

Glad you were able to figure it out. As a little layer of detail, the shank is RARELY caused by a pure swing direction issue. Many golfers have really high numbers for their path (either hook or slice) but rarely slice it. The bigger i…

Re: 2 o clock finish keys?

Hey Zach,

I agree, overall it's looking pretty solid. There are always little things that can be cleaned up/improved upon. So I'd usually factor in what miss I'm trying to fix (still battling hooks, start line or curve issues, contact issues, traje…

Re: Which program should I start with?

Hi Dom,

Welcome to the site. I don't think you can go wrong either way. But I would probably start with the Build My Stock Swing Program. It's usually the first program I recommend and provides the hierarchy of where all the concepts and drills fi…

Re: struggling with speed

  By: Tyler F on June 2, 2025, 10:05 a.m.

No worries, if you don't have old video, then I just work off the standard Stock Tour Swing model we're trying to work toward.

If it were me, I'd probably work on that impact and follow through. Especially the follow through width. I think with tha…

Sorry to hear about the calf injury and subsequent loss of swing. Golf is a hard game to keep the swing dialed indefinitely. Do you by any chance have a video of your swing from pre calf injury when you were swinging it the speeds you'd like? It's m…

Re: How To Keep the Head Back?

John, Spinning the shoulders is a very common problem. Feeling closed longer, or not spinning, can be a really good swing thought for many. Sounds like you're going down a good rabbit hole. I look forward to seeing the video to see how the feel is s…

Re: Secondary Early Extension?

Hi Cecil,

I tend to like to have a swing goal as well as a performance goal. The picture I would want to change is the follow through side of the puzzle. It looks more like a baseball release to me which is usually linked to club face inconsistency…

Re: Over Rotation? Lack of Arm Extension?

  By: Tyler F on May 18, 2025, 8:59 a.m.

Hi Joey,

In general, I think ulnar deviation is one of the keys to wrist stability and radius/club face control.

In the full speed swing you posted, I think it's apparent that part of the issue is the movement through the ball seems like it's pul…

Re: How To Keep the Head Back?

Hi John,

Welcome to the site and thanks for the question! In general, it's always easiest to analyze a swing if you post your swing with the question. Many golfers describe their swing different than it actual is (describing feels vs real).

I'd …

Re: Lead Ankle Dorsiflexion

  By: Tyler F on May 18, 2025, 8:18 a.m.

You're right, it's not an area typically looked at. Commonly, lead ankle plantarflexion would help raise the lead heel and is associated with a longer backswing. But I looked at some graphs from AMM. I'm sure it's not 100% since it's on the shoe and…

Re: Secondary Early Extension?

A lot of the best wedge players have a movement away from the ball during the downswing. It looks like this is a 60 degree wedge by the description?

If that's the case, I think the bigger issue is that your arms are a bit steep and your body is a l…

You're welcome, good luck and keep us posted!

Re: Lesson with Tyler???

Hi Scott,

Thanks for the kind praise. I'll keep you posted if I can free up a little more time in early summer. In the meantime, feel free to post your questions about our system here on the site.

Happy Golfing,

Re: Over Rotation? Lack of Arm Extension?

  By: Tyler F on April 28, 2025, 1:17 p.m.

I do think you're on to something with your arms. If I look at your release and arm action through the ball, it appears to have a few elements of lead arm pulling. The elbow pit quickly rotates, the lead shoulder isn't very protracted/elevated, and …
