Online Lesson Follow-Up: Victor Herak

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…

Online Lesson: Tanner Wieringa- Eliminating Upper Body Lean in Transition Should Produce Great Results

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Hi Wayne, my name is Tanner Wieringa (wear-inga), Im 20 years old and have been playing the game for 2.5 years. I am around a 10 hcp and I struggle with my irons. I would like to be able to compress my irons better and be able to control the club face as my shot dispersion is not consistent. Thank you and I look forward to the lesson! Tanner has done a great job with his swing in only 2 ½ years and judging from the videos I would bet that one major fix will have a huge impact on…

Online Lesson: Harrison Murphy- Controlling Immense Power

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

I watched this swing and then texted Harrison as I needed to know more about his game before I made any comments. You will see why, as it is exceptional and appears to be quite powerful. However, I wasn’t quite prepared for the text I got back from him: “Played 10 years. Game this summer has been quite good. Played well this past 2 months until the past week or so. Tendency is to lose the feeling of a good pivot and then the swing gets steep. My SS (swing speed) is 136-138 (!!), BS (ball speed) 200-205 (!!) and…

Jon Bui Follow-Up: Nice Improvement, Still Things to Work On

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Jon has done a good job improving his loading and sequencing, as well as his right upper arm pull back in transition and his tendency to push his hips toward the ball in the forward swing. He reported in that he hit the ball much better in his sessions just after the lesson, and here instead of looking for new items to address I suggest he keep working on the same things. One thing he does that is quite important is a half swing drill where it is obvious that he deepens his pelvis to create more space for his…

Junior Golfer Stewie Bruce Follow-up- Kids Improve Fast

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

Here are some notes from Ian Bruce, Stewie’s dad, who obviously knows what he’s talking about, which is nice, because I have to write less and just say that this kid is a tremendous talent and has a great future in golf ahead of him. Overall a stronger looking movement I feel The right loading with steady head is a work in progress and we need to focus on this more. We’ve tried the “left shoulder over the right foot” concept to exaggerate the right loading but then he drifts back to some left loading. The arm tension (especially right) at…
