Steve is a high level senior amateur (played in last year’s U.S. Senior Am) but has been fighting pain in his right hip and lower back. We have always worked on Steve’s tendency to back up his upper body and come out from under himself with his lower, leading to late squaring of the hips […]

Lucia is 23 years old and 2 years out of a college career playing for the University of Tennessee. She is now in her second stint on the Symetra Tour, the LPGA’s version of the Web.Com tour. This is my second lesson with Lucia, and in the first lesson I saw some real potential as […]

Hi Wayne- sending you face on and down the line of a 46-degree wedge, hopefully incorporating some of the concepts you introduced me to when I sent my swing to you last year. Feel as though I may have gotten too outside on takeaway and flat at the top as a result of really bowing […]

I should put a warning label on this video that says “Caution: Quite Physically Difficult to Accomplish”, although if you can get a bit closer to what Koepka does your swing will definitely improve. Staying bent over during the golf swing (not to mention getting even more bent over like Brooks does here) is possibly […]

In this video I look at Honda winner Keith Mitchell hitting a 91- yard wedge shot with a technique designed to control trajectory and spin. The shot can be interchangeably called a “knock-down”, a “3/4”, or a “cut off”, and the idea is by reducing the length of both the backswing and the follow through […]

If you have watched any of Andrew’s lesson videos (you should) you will see just how stubborn his backswing hitch has been to get rid of. Andrew is a good player and an athlete, and you might think that once he is made aware of such an obvious and exaggerated flaw that he could fix […]
