Online Lesson: Sim Allan- Looking for More Right-Load and a More Active Lower Body

Sim has made great strides since his first lesson (this is his 3rd) and I encourage you to watch the previous ones. I focus here only on his face on view as there is a lot to talk about there and his down the line view is quite good and not the real issue. The main problem I see is Sim’s tendency to drift his upper body over his lower in transition instead of using the ground to drive the pelvis with the 3 attributes I talk about all the time, depth, lateral, and rotation. Feeling the stretch in the…

Online Lesson Follow-Up: Justin Miller

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Greatly Improved Lower Body Work I don’t think the average golfer understands how hard it is to change a swing. People come for a lesson, and when they see that they make a multitude of mistakes they think that doing one or maybe two things will be the answer, and that it shouldn’t take that long. When they come back for a follow-up and swear that their swing will look totally different and it doesn’t, they can only take that for so long before they give up and move on to another teacher or a different idea they found on…

Online Lesson: Patrick Cunningham- Good Swing Needs Shape Change

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Message to Wayne Hello Wayne. I’ve been watching your stuff for a long time. I know I stand up on the backswing and pull my head off the ball and push my hips toward the ball at impact. I would like to do the “magic move” but have a hard time to feel it. I know I could really improve my iron strikes. I hit the longer clubs, especially the driver, well – of course. It’s no surprise that Patrick hits his fairway woods and driver better than his irons: his in to out path is much more conducive to…

Online Lesson: Jaime Gylan PGA- Better Posture Would Help an Already Excellent Swing

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

I’ve known Jaime since he was in high school (that was a while ago), and I’m always proud when one of my former students becomes a highly respected teaching professional. Jaime, like I did in my prime, works hard on his game and would like to start seeing better results in his club professional tournaments. He has always had a nice swing, and here I make some simple suggestions to try out to see if we can get it to work better. I put him side by side with Charl Schwartzel, partly because of his grip (I think it’s one…

Online Lesson Follow-Up: Victor Herak

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

It’s always nice to see an online lesson make a difference right away in a student’s swing. Here you see Victor take 4 suggestions from his first lesson, incorporate them, and send in a new batch of swings with a much-improved impact. If you go back to the previous lesson you will note that I wanted Victor to center his setup, move the ball position a ball or two more back in his stance, get a bit deeper and more extended with the right arm in the backswing, and focus on adding left wrist flexion sooner in the forward swing.…

Online Lesson: Brandon Deggins PGA- Swing Shape and Hip Depth

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

My name is Brandon Deggins. I am an Assistant Golf Professional at TPC River Highlands. I am mostly self-taught. I was a decent player once upon a time, but that was 6 years ago and 20lbs lighter. Most of my golf now is a sporadic 4-5-hole loop when a member asks or late in the afternoon after my shift. I typically shoot anywhere from mid to high 70’s. However, I do not do anything spectacularly well. I struggle with consistency with the driver. With irons, I do not compress the ball near as well as I should. The miss with…

Online Lesson: Victor Herak- Backswing Extension and Left Wrist Flexion Earlier in Downswing

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Message to Wayne Hi Wayne – Some context: I’m 63, play about 10 rounds per year, hcap about 8-ish. Though not playing much now I still like to work on my swing. Re swing: I get roll-y a bit in takeaway and get laid-off/flat-ish at top, and for me it seems to help me get the club down in front of me better When I get the club outside my hands on the takeaway better and get the shaft more down the line at the top it seems that the club then gets coming in from too much inside…

Online Lesson: Jim Skeele- Working on Swing Shape

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Message to Wayne: Wayne, I’m looking forward to your analysis. I am 100% self-taught and am currently playing around a 1. 60 years old and still moving it well in my mind. One thing is for sure: being self-taught and a 1 handicap at age 60 is pretty darn good. After watching the swings, I knew that a simple change could make for huge differences because so much of the swing is excellent. Jim has a common swing pattern: shaft swings low and behind him from P1 to P2, gets well across the line by P4, and to uncross it and…

Online Lesson: Mark Woolway- Getting Rid of Excess Backswing Movement

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Message to Wayne Hi Wayne, I’m 47 years old, been playing for a few years, based in the SF Bay Area, and want to get a lot better a lot faster. I’m willing to do whatever it takes. I’ve taken lessons from just about every notable instructor in the Western US. I’m a 13 handicap now, down from a 16 a few weeks ago. I’m a big fan of your YouTube videos and looking forward to working with you. Thanks very much. Mark can advance his game in a big way by eliminating excess lifting and twisting in the backswing,…

Online Lesson: Chris Westfall- Looking for Better Iron Impact

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Message to Wayne Hi Wayne, I purchased an online lesson. I am a member of your site and an avid viewer of your swing videos. Well done! I was a good player, now I am 55 and trying to get my game in order. I did not play for the last two years and recently had a hip replacement. The replacement was successful, and I now can swing a club. I see a couple of Wayne D issues with not staying in the box (although a significant improvement from three years ago) and not shallowing the club in transition as…
