I joined 2 months ago and Clay and Chuck make it simple……Really helped
my game on the takeaway with my right arm and using my core.Good bye early
wrist cock and hello better scores.
Thanks! I really like that “thorough, but simple”. That’s good stuff.
Thanks for the tip! I hope you still get some enjoyment out of the game,
even if the distance may not be there anymore. ~Clay Ballard
More on that left arm, moe norman, arnold palmer also had that left arm on
tht shouder turn plane, those are big names too
There is no explanation as to what causes lag ?
Sorry for the inconvenience Dave. Could you tell us exactly what happened?
If you had trouble with this, others may too, and we would like to get that
taken care of. I haven’t had anyone else mention an issue with this though.
When you click the link it takes you to a page where there is a 2 line
application box (create email & password). Once you fill this out, the
video you clicked the link to watch should automatically pop up and you can
begin viewing. Is this not what happened? ~Clay Ballard
Oh, yeah. He has tons! That is really too much for normal golf. It can get
inconsistent if you get that much. Great for distance though! Good luck
with your game Shakoski7! Hopefully I will talk to you again soon on the
website. ~Clay Ballard
For crazy wrist cock and lag look at jamie sadlowski
This is so good, Clay. I’m a 47 year member of the PGA and was known as a
very thorough but simple teacher during my prime teaching days. “Thorough
but simple”, we do not have to impress the student by our sophisticated
knowledge of the mechanics of the golf swing. I was also a very good
amateur and professional in my younger days. I still practice a lot but
nowdays it is very sad and frustrating not to be able to swing the club
like days gone by. The 75 yr old circuits won’t fire anymore!
I watched the video on Wide To Narrow. I wanted to see the follow-up video,
so I clicked the link. I got a browser page asking for an email address and
password (and perhaps other stuff, don’t remember). I filled the form and
submitted it. I got a page saying I was no longer eligible to see the video
(or words to that effect), and I was given a list of video topics I could
see. Didn’t see the one I wanted, so I went elsewhere. Specifically, I
looked for a way to unsubscribe, but didn’t fine any.
Oh and ben hogan too has his left arm smack on his shoulder plane
See all the movies, news, TV shows, documentaries, any professionally
filmed videos, no one uses that out focusing effect.
Ok, that was most likely the issue. You receive the 25+ free videos to
watch whenever you like. You also get to watch all of the premium videos
for free the day they are released and the PGA Tour swing review for free
each week when you are a free member. The 1 premium video that you click
over to watch is only available on your first visit. You will receive and
email with each new that you will be able to watch. Hopefully, we will talk
again soon. Good luck with your game! ~Clay Ballard
I’ve been watching youtube thousands of golf instructions for years, and I
can tell you that you guys are the best. I also will sign up for your
premium membership program next season. However, I am telling you, please
stop using “out focusing effect” when you filming these videos. That is not
fan fancy, nor effective, but very annoying. Please listen, you guys are
making not just golf instruction videos but human sporting legacy of 21st
century.
Straight to premium membership 🙂
Are absolutely correct. No one can truly bend their wrist as much as Sergio
Garcia appears to from face on. He rotates the club very flat. Tiger on the
other hand does not flatten the plane in the downswing. He is a more
accurate judge of how much the wrists truly create lag. Same with Trevor
Immelman, Adam Scott, and Billy Horschel. You may want to use those guys as
more of a model in the future. Good luck with your game!! ~Clay Ballard
Thanks. I bought an LCD viewfinder and used it today today for the first
time. It worked great and now I can see what is in focus when I am out in
the bright sun. I appreciate the tips. ~Clay Ballard
I don’t know. As far as I know, it was the first. But I may have been
intrigued in the past and signed up for a different video. I don’t feel
tied to one instructor, and DEFINITELY NOT to one school of instruction. I
usually follow ideas and techniques, not individuals or teaching combines.
So it’s entirely possible I signed up before.
I disagree, I think it looks cool and makes him stand out when
demonstrating body positions. but i dont know what im talking about lol
lag can also be an illusion. hogan lays the shaft off in transition so it
look like hes having alot of wristcock. check out Sergio garcia. same thing
At the bottom of the swing the hands need to work back in front of the
torso, or the arms will be stuck behind your body. The farther you get your
hands behind the torso, the more ground they will have to make up on the
downswing. By matching the arms to the shoulder plane, the hands get behind
the torso at the top and you will have to work to get the arms back in
front at impact or you will be stuck. You will also lose some leverage due
to the loss of hand height. ~Clay Ballard
I think we have got to take Hogan’s head position into account. When his
arms extend and the right shoulder rises, as the right shoulder blade
glides, Hogan cocks his head to the side to accommodates this movement. And
I do think that we have to look at how his head continues to accommodates
the right shoulder blade glide when the shoulders move beyond an angle of
45 degrees, bearing in mind that the shoulder angle has to apply a downward
force in the direction that it points
I tried the link, including signing up for the rotaryswing list. It told me
I was not eligible to view it. Guess I should resign from rotaryswing,
because the site doesn’t work the way you say — and doesn’t give me any
indication why not.
Thanks gee gee k! Glad to hear it! Keep up the good work! ~Clay Ballard
Had you signed up for your free membership with the Rotary Swing in the
past, or was this your first time? ~Clay Ballard
oh, i’am sorry. Then try these. Place camera from main object as far as you
can and then zoom in, close aperture more (=higher “f” factor on your
lens), an so on ….
