This guy is doing what every mini-tour player dreams of: going from a small tour (South Africa), to a minor league tour in a different country (the Challenge Tour), through European Q-School, to a win on the European Tour, and now to a spot in the top 50 in the world rankings. He swings with […]

After missing 5 straight cuts and 9 out of his first 11 events for the 2020 season (finishing outside the top 50 in the 2 cuts he made), Hughes finished solo 2nd at the Honda Classic on the incredibly difficult Champions Course at PGA National in Florida with a 50 foot birdie putt on 17 […]

This video is a continuation of “THE BEST Senior Swing for Elite Level Play and Competition”. In the first video I covered the driver swing: now, in this video, I cover the iron swing. The two swings are similar but there are some key differences when hitting the ball off the ground with an iron, […]

I have a question for you: Do you track your ball-striking stats either manually or with an app? If your answer to this question is “no” and you’re serious about lowering your scores you should consider changing that approach. Now think about these two questions: How many greens in regulation do you hit on average? […]

Watching these two swings on TV in full speed I could see the club doing some serious dancing at the top so I figured it would be interesting to slow them down and check them out more closely. What we will see are two distinctly different backswing techniques that produce excellent approaches to impact, both […]

I was always the most nervous in tournament play on the first tee, especially if I had gotten myself into contention, which of course ratchets up the pressure. Every player wants to get off to a good start, but when your heart rate is up, and your stomach is not exactly settled the pre-shot routine […]

This is a great golf swing. It’s hard to believe that after making 1.8 million dollars in 2015 Todd then missed 39 of his next 44 cuts, then after making a few at the end of 2019 when he only made $250,000, he started the wrap around 2020 season with 4 more mc’s before a […]

I’m 62 years old (2019) and have limited trunk mobility due to multiple back, elbow, foot and other surgeries from injuries during my long teaching and playing career. Most of the online instruction catering to senior golfers focuses on increasing the backswing arc by closing the stance and maximizing the backswing turn, while I go in the totally opposite direction by suggesting that the best swing technique for senior golfers still interested in competing who are coping with limited flexibility and continuing back pain is the open stance.

This is a great golf swing, and I’m going to go out on a limb (not a big one) to say that this guy will win on Tour and eventually be one of the best players out there. When I first saw this swing I knew I would like it, and when I slowed it […]

Watching Danny Lee at the CJ Cup (he finished 2nd) I noticed his leg action and immediately thought that it was similar to a swing I have looked at many times, Johnny Miller. The movement I reference here is the front foot, in these cases the left foot, sliding well to the left away from […]
