  • Alignment - Is It Important? Part # 1
    When I sat down and began to brainstorm about writing and filming "How To Break 90 in 3 Easy Lessons", I tried to think of a couple of sticking points that a majority of all my students over the years had struggled with in order that I might use these common threads as the foundation for my new interactive golf training system.

    After considerable thought, I came up with three problematic areas that virtually every student I've ever taught has struggled with at one time or another.
  • Alignment - Is It Important? Part #2
    OK, we're continuing to talk about how absolutely essential that proper alignment really is and I want you to put on your thinking cap on and answer a quick question for me.

    If you are shooting a gun and you want to hit your intended target with any consistency, what is the first order of business?

    You have to aim the gun at the target in order to hit it...right?
  • Are Fundamentals Just For Beginners?
    Whenever you talk with golfers about golf instruction, they all seem to be very interested in the latest gadget, gimmick, trend, or secret method but mention fundamentals and they tune out quicker than you can say jack rabbit.

    "That's just for beginners," they say citing their current 19 handicap as evidence that they have progressed beyond working on their grip, posture, and alignment.
  • Drive For Show and Putt For Dough
    A popular golf cliche that seems to appear in print and video often is “Drive For Show and Putt for Dough.” If you play regularly, you’ve probably heard it uttered by your playing companions, probably the one who has just drained a long putt to win the weekend wagers or someone who can't keep up off the tee... but is it really true?
  • How Important Is Posture to The Touring Professionals? - Part # 1
    As hard as it is for me to understand, just like the grip, posture is often overlooked by many people who are learning the game of golf and also by many people who are struggling with their games. They go out of their way searching for the "silver bullet" when the real silver bullet is hidden in plain view. Tiger Woods and his coach Butch Harmon are well aware of the "silver bullet" and.....
  • How Important Is Posture To The Touring Professionals? - Part # 2
    Having established the importance of a good posture position in part # 1, here are some important points to bear in mind when developing your best posture.
  • In Search Of Golf's Silver Bullet? - part # 2
    A "neutral" grip along with good posture and alignment will help you acheive maximum performance and consistency with minimal practice time. Having said that, if you practice enough and have enough GOD given talent, you can make virtually any grip work but that's not what you're here for.

    You're looking for the "silver bullet" .....right?
  • In Search Of Golf's Silver Bullet? - Part 1
    You would have to think that mid to high handicappers and beginners who want to improve their golf swings and games in general and who have the most potential to improve their scores would embrace solid, time-tested fundamentals and use these time-tested techniques to improve their ball striking and scores... BUT for whatever reason, most don't. Most look to gadgetry and gimmick teaching to improve their games with little or no results. Every season it's a new theory, a new gadget, a new gimmick, but most important, they shoot the same old score, never seeing any real results where it counts.
  • Practice Makes Perfect.....Or Does It?
    Practice, practice, practice..hit and drag...drag and hit....seriously, most of us don’t have a lot of time for practice and even those who do, for the most part, don’t enjoy it. Worse yet, most players don’t see any improvement in their performance even when they do practice.
