Two different ways to generate power with your golf swing

By |2019-09-08T14:06:47-04:00September 8th, 2019|Golf|

Just wanted to take the time to show a couple different golf swings that most golfers are familiar with, to demonstrate two distinct ways to generate power. These are the swings of Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson.  Dustin Johnson ranked 4th in driving distance in 2019, while Koepka ranked 10th. I should note that neither [...]

By |2019-08-19T14:16:20-04:00August 19th, 2019|Golf|

At the highest levels of the game of golf, the game has clearly changed.  I'm guessing Ben Hogan is rolling in his grave at what he is seeing.On the PGA Tour, as Tiger Woods hinted at in recent days, most emphasis is placed on the driver.  Hit that damn ball as far as you can, [...]

How to become a scratch golfer

By |2023-02-04T21:04:00-05:00May 16th, 2019|Golf|

Most of the golfers I know who are scratch golfers started playing golf at a young age, and they played a lot of golf as a kid, as a teenager and young adult. If you are a golfer who picked up the game later in life, you are at a huge disadvantage.  As adults, our [...]

How to analyze your own golf swing with video

By |2019-05-11T23:35:57-04:00May 8th, 2019|Instruction|

One of the most important steps I took to improving my golf game was to have my swing analyzed. This actually happened by accident when I attended Hank Haney's teaching seminar back in 2009.  I was chosen by Hank himself after he watched video of my swing, and noted a particular flaw that he wanted [...]

Golf Tips – Playing from uneven stances

Putting with the pin in the hole, and other new rules I hate

By |2019-03-03T21:23:48-05:00March 3rd, 2019|Golf|

I have to admit...when it comes to golf, I am a bit of a traditionalist.  If I had my way, the players at the highest levels of the game would be playing with wood woods, and balata covered golf balls, or maybe even the old gutta percha balls!  (I won't go as far back as [...]
