Want to have Tour Level structure at the top! But you Hate how you have a bad over swing? Flying right elbow at the top? Arms becoming disconnected from your body? Once you get your lats engaged it will help to build a proper arm structure at the top. So you can start
🇺🇸This July 4th, Remember Who We Are.
A nation conceived in prayer. Built by believers who refused the word impossible. Defended by patriots who understood that some things are worth more than safety.
We don't apologize for our values. We don't negotiate with our principles. We don't ask permission to be free.
The more the world demands we bow, the more certain we must be that we stand.
Remember who we are and then refuse to be anything less 🇺🇸
With Scottie attempting to complete the Career Grand Slam, I decided to look back at the seven golfers who faced similar pressure and never got over the hump. @fried_egg_golf https://t.co/ThbpyRnRGU
Many golfers who come over the top have transition backwards. They feel like the downswing starts with rotation, so they spin open from the top, throwing the club out and over the plane. Hello, slice.
The fix isn’t no rotation. It’s better sequence. Starting the downswing with a lateral move toward the target not only shifts pressure into the lead side, it helps shallow the club.
Now rotation becomes an asset. With the club shallow, a player can rotate as aggressively as they want and the path stays on plane. The lateral shift earns the right to turn hard.
This is one of the ways we teach coaches to use force plate data in our advanced seminars. When we see an over-the-top pattern and lateral force is low or late, we start cues from the ground up.

Want to have tour level sequencing? Here is an easy drill to help with that. Most amateurs open their shoulders way too quickly to start the downswing. That will create over the tops, pulls or worse. Allowing your shift to happen first then hips, then torso as the arms shallow
*Warning this may be disturbing to some viewers* I've been watching old Joplin videos and this video is the most absolutely terrifying one made me sick to my stomach I'm glad this guy is ok, he made it out alive
This putting lesson from Tiger Woods has improved my putting 50%.
(From very bad to kinda bad.)
Somehow the way he presents the idea of how the putter hits the ball just clicked with me.
I used to have a longer follow through when putting. After this, I changed and my putting instantly improved.
15 years ago years ago today, Joplin, MO was devastated by an EF5 tornado, becoming the worst tornado of the 21st century.
The story, meteorology, engineering, and social science that combines to create the worst-case tornado scenario.
I wrote a short ode to the Shany Lowry shank, a reminder of how hard this stupid game is, and how even the golfing gods briefly return to earth where the rest of us live. @fried_egg_golf https://t.co/3jFsnHYze3
Walked the front nine just now… some takeaways.
- Consensus among players/caddies for winning score is around -16. Some said up to -20. “-4 every day is our goal.”
- Many echoing Rory’s bomb and gauge comments (more on that below)
- 5/6/7/ is a great stretch, cool greens, side hill lies, risk/reward plays
- Greens are very fun, shorter holes have wilder greens — consistent with Donald Ross courses
- Tracked what most players were hitting on each hole. You’ll sense a theme…
1 - driver or wood/wedge
2 - driver/wedge
3- driver/wedge
4- driver/short iron
5 - short iron
6 - driver or wood/wedge
7 - driver or wood/wedge or short iron
8 - long iron/hybrid
9 - driver/wood or layup with short iron
April 26, 1991. Today marks the 35th anniversary of the Andover, Kansas F5 tornado. At its peak, wind speeds were estimated at 268 mph, making it one of the most powerful storms ever documented.
This thread looks at the meteorological data and the historical impact of that day. 🧵👇 #Andover #KSwx
