Student Lesson: Zach Verses Part 2

By Wayne | Videos: Lesson of the Week

I’ve been working with Zach for some time and we thought we were getting some good progression with his swing, but as he got closer to the time he was going to get back to competing he began to regress a bit and return to some of his old habits. Zach is tremendously strong and flexible and produces a lot of power for a smallish frame. His main problem is control, and we have concentrated on getting the shaft not to cross at the top in order to simplify his downswing and improve his approach to impact. He produces a…

Student Lesson: Jared Kenworthy

By Wayne | Videos: Lesson of the Week

Jared has been a member of the web site for a while now and has created a nice series of videos that he posted in the forum documenting all the hard work he’s done on his swing, check them out if you haven’t seen them yet. Jared used the information on this site, a few online lessons, a lot of motivation, some self-analysis and plain old hard work to build himself a very nice swing. In this video Jared actually made the trip out from Kansas for business and decided to drop by Woodmont for an in-person lesson, which was…

Swing Analysis: Crossing the Line

By Wayne | Videos: Swing Analysis

Here I take two of my younger students who both cross the line at the top of the swing and show how I try to get them more on plane at the top. Both Joey and Zach are strong hitters who generate a lot of club speed, but both tend to lift their arms at the top and cross the line quite a bit. They are also similar in that they tend to be overly late with their release into the ball with their fairway woods and drivers, which makes it difficult to control the clubface through the ball. Joey…

Online Students: Rob Kane

By Wayne | Videos: Online Students

I think it is so cool to be able to try to help someone from the other side of the world. Just thinking about the advances in technology over the last decade can make your head spin. Rob is from England, and here we see a classic right arm action issue, one that if you have watched a bunch of these lesson videos you find crops up quite often. Rob has a bunch of good stuff happening in his swing, and does a great job of returning the shaft pretty darn close to the original shaft plane on his approach…

Lesson of the Week: Zach Verses

By Wayne | Videos: Lesson of the Week

Zach has been a student of mine off and on for 5 years, although it has been quite intermittent and “off” more than on. In the video you can see that Zach has the ability to change and improve his mechanics, and has always been blessed with the knack for achieving a stellar line of compression through impact. However, he is also prone to reverting back to his old habits when he gets away from consistent lessons and plays more than practicing.
