Adam Scott has had one of the best swings in golf for a long time. I played with him the first two rounds of the 2001 PGA at Atlanta Athletic Club and it was fun to watch to say the least even though he didn’t play particularly well and missed the cut. It is not […]

John started with me online back in 2015, sent swings a few times that year and in 2016 and 17, then came down to Florida for a face to face in February of 2018. He returned a couple weeks ago for another look, and as usual we found ourselves working on the same issues. I’d […]

As we know, the reports of Tiger Woods having irreversible pitching yips have been greatly exaggerated (Brandel and Hank). He has always had one of the best short games in history, and he is still getting it up and down from everywhere. Here we see a standard tight lie pitch shot where he chooses to […]

In comparing Rory’s swing over the past 9 years we see some differences in the backswing, namely the takeaway and the position of the club at the top, but in all the swings we see Rory add posture into impact and follow through and get through the shot with an amount of side bend unattainable […]
