Great article here from @TheStackSystem on grip strength (squeezing strength) and its relationship (or lack thereof?) to clubhead speed. Even if you just watch the direction of the purple arrow at various points in the video, you'll learn something. thestacksystem.com/blogs/art…

Butch Harmon talks about something Tiger did that EVERY golfer looking to #PlayBetter #golf should do! Take a guess before you listen and see if you’re right!

No data is often better than having bad data.

Confession: I have no idea when I first broke 100, 90, 80, or even 70. I don’t remember my first par, birdie, or eagle. I didn’t start playing until I was ~15. I just never thought those milestones were worth remembering. I was always focused on what came next.

A listener to @TheSpinAxis episode on the flat lead wrist (thespinaxis.com/ep82) had a question about my red and green paddle. So here’s the simple demonstration.

youtube.com/watch?v=Uc009J2H… I didn't love this video from @MyTPI. If you say the "center of the pelvis" I don't think of a marker on the front of the pelvis where your belt buckle might be.

I like a grip that's perpendicular to the fingers and across the base of the fingers. Here's @JustinThomas34 gripping it "more in the palm" for a specific short game shot. Note how different even this slightly palmy grip is than most amateurs. youtube.com/watch?v=SIU7_oTD…

Koivun's swing is pretty freaking standard up until the early follow-through.

youtube.com/watch?v=O0a8Q-KH… Hmmm. Is being to the left side of the fairway a better angle? A bit, sure. Should you aim for the left side of the fairway? Almost never. @LouStagner, you were there… How often did you have your player aim left here? 😜 #Angles

I love hearing about golfers playing some of their best golf ever! This student is only a few lessons in, too. Congrats! – at Erie, PA

The Arm Shark 🦈 by @A_M_Golf is a new training aid coming out this Monday, July 28 (the start of 🦈 Week!). It’s going to help a lot of golfers with a common issue — over-bending the trail elbow. Here’s how it works. #PlayBetter #golf

If you show up to a lesson with your club(s) looking like this, you might be costing yourself strokes on the course. Please, keep your clubs clean. 😜😊
