More Efficient Power = Distance

Power comes from Winding the shoulders first from Top Down, while resisting with the Lower Body. What I mean is… the backswing will use the shoulders to wind the arms and club around the spine, AS YOU RESIST* with the lower body. In other words, holding your lower body still while the shoulders turn first

No Height on Hybrids & Fairway Woods

A student asked for help because he was not getting any height on his hybrids and fairway woods. Here was my response: Hi Todd Generally the big culprit for no height on fairway woods or hybrids is incorrect ball position at setup. This is usually too far back in the stance. If the ball is

More Distance – Golf Swing

Here is a New video that helps explain how if you resist with the lower body as you start your takeaway using the front shoulder, you WILL hit the ball much farther.

Aspects of Putting

In a repeatable, productive (ball went in the hole), putting stroke, there are many aspects to pay attention to, prior to, during and after you putt the ball. These aspects collectively add up to your probability of making putts. My objective here is to enlighten the golfer about concerns of a solid and repeatable putting

Bump? or Not to Bump?

I received an Email from one of my students: Do I need to bump the hips to the left before I turn them, or do I just turn them after I have completed my backswing?  RegardsEddie Hi Eddie  If you were able to maintain at least 60% of your weight forward, you will be able

Isometric Impact Drill

I created a drill to “imprint” impact into muscle memory. I call it the “Isometric Impact Drill”. The key to incorporate this memory, is to repeatedly setup with a golf club head up against something stationary like a door jamb or to the side at the bottom of some stairs… some place that is solid,

No Hit at the Ball

An ideal golf shot has no distinguishable change at the ball, meaning no “hit” at, or “chop” at, like an axe into a tree. There should be no change other that a predetermined* continued acceleration to the finish. Now, this does not mean you can’t hit the ball various distances with the same club. Absolutely

Impact Leverage – Weak Wrists vs. Bowed Out Front Wrist

This is an idea that I’ve had about “why” a slightly bowed out front wrist at impact, feels so SOLID and powerful… and thought I’d share: Given #1: I’ve mentioned many times, that a solid golf shot at impact, will have the shaft inline with the front arm, leading the club head, and (with my

The Snow Eagle

This is just a fun post of something I thought was kind of cool. Was the middle of winter and it looked like it might snow, but that didn’t keep us off the course. We had just teed it up on #1 when a few flakes started to fall. We didn’t care and teed off.

Before, In and After the Moment

Wow, what’s all that have to do with golf? It is my opinion that, there are 3 types of “focus” or “thinking” needed to perform consistently and develop your golf game. Before, in and after “The Moment”. Before the Moment: The “time” during the off season, or before your round, or between holes, or just
