John and I have been working together successfully (almost exclusively online) for about 5 years now, and this lesson is from April when he was just coming back after missing a few months due to shoulder surgery. John has all the equipment anyone could need right in his basement, so we have been able to […]

Rob has done a nice job improving his takeaway, which before had seen his hands pushing well down at the start, thus shutting the clubface, and leading to an across the line position at the top. Here we see Rob still somewhat across at the top but definitely improved. I would like Rob to extend […]

In this follow-up lesson Justin succeeds in accomplishing my main suggestion in his last lesson and keeps his head nicely out over the ball (staying on the forehead line) from the DTL view, giving him more right side bend through impact and a more leftward exit.

I met Brian when I worked at Woodmont CC and he was an assistant pro. He has since gotten his amateur status back and had an exciting win in 2018 when he prevailed in the Oak Hill (Rochester, NY) club championship. He is getting close to playing some quality golf and would like to compete […]

Austin has taken an extended break after turning pro last year, first due to poor play and then the Coronavirus, but now is back at it and trying to improve. Austin is incredibly strong (I watched him hit 4 drives that flew 330 when I played 9 holes with him), but that amount of power […]

Posture has a huge effect on what happens when the player starts to move, and in just about every case where I see a slumped, heel oriented setup I suggest something more athletically angled and “ready”, with the upper body out over the ball and the foot pressure toward the balls of the feet (but […]
