I don't know if there is a perfect answer, but one that makes sense to me is that it's based on face tendencies. Most golfers are right-handed, and most of those golfers error on having the face slightly open to the path. In that scenario, you have …

The unhinge move can help hook it less in 2 different ways.

Geometrically, if you are hooking the ball, you have a clubface that is excessively closed to the path. The unhinge (ulnar deviation) opens the club face, which helps your hook pattern. S…

Andrew, completely agree with your observations. I love those pictures of his swing too! Especially that follow-through position. Such a thing of beauty!

Ed, good observations as well. His open stance might help exaggerate some of the looks. But, a…

Many of you have probably seen the chart below. It outlines the average make and 3 putt percentage from different distances on the green. Amateurs frequently overestimate how many putts from 10 feet they should make. Roughly knowing your odds will h…

What do you see in these pictures that relate to our GSA system, or what you're working on in your own game?

There are a couple different ways you can look at this. But, as a general rule.

Distance comes from ball speed
Ball speed comes from club head speed in the plane of the swing
Club head speed in the plane of the swing has a strong correlation to gr…

Hi Clara,

I think the most important thing for kids is giving them opportunities and keeping it fun. Make sure you play from an appropriate distance so that they get to practice all aspects of the game. Playing a 400 yard whole when you only hit it…

I agree with Chris, It definitely looks like you're moving things in the right direction with the lead leg action.

Chris, It's possible that he could benefit from a longer backswing. I would get it from more extension rather than turn. Also, I think that would be something to work on when you have enough time to get used to a big change in timing. If you haven't…

This season, I was paying attention to the "warm-up" channel at the majors. Here's a list of players who used an alignment stick during warm-up.

PS - These are the best players in the world, but they know how important alignment to the target is t…

Keith,

That's a great suggestion.

We are working on solving this issue, but it'll take some time. As Chris Adkins indicated in his response, we've had an underground certification going on for the last 10 months or so. We will be launching it pub…

Instead of the push ball, I'd just do the door jam drill. Pushing a yoga block or something into a wall. You'd want to push at about the height of the ball with the hands almost even with the ball instead of way in front of it.

I think better golfers have a tendency to be overly shallow rather than overly steep. Your observations, setting up a little open, would help balance this out. Unfortunately, my data is set based on the body position at set up, not to a target line.…

I like your little recipe. Sounds like a very effective session for this drill.

Unfortunately, the push ball is harder to do with the driver. Instead, I'd just have you push up against a yoga block against the wall. Like the door jam drill instead…

The buckle almost always comes from overuse of the hands and underuse of the hips through impact. As far as the leg straightening too soon, I think a big part of it is the lateral movement of the upper body off the ball as you set the club. See the …
