Dr Strangelove Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Just now, TR1PTIK said: It's just a matter of what speaks to you as an individual and how you process information. I don't agree with everything he says, but the way he breaks down parts of the swing is very similar (if not exactly the same) as how I tend to look at those parts. I also like that he isn't about changing a swing simply because of how it looks. His explanation of "match-ups" is spot-on IMO. Coaches like Gankas will help the sport return to more personalized swings instead of the text-book cookie cutter type which is nice - not that I have anything against that type of swing. I'd have to be crazy to suggest there's anything wrong with swings like those belonging to Adam Scott or Rory McIlroy. Thanks. Apologies if my comment came off as aggressive. The challenge from the videos I have viewed so far is that he offers so many options (you can do this, or that, or this) that I'm left scratching my head as to what to do. That's why I am curious if his paid stuff has a bit more instruction to it. Shawn Clements teaches a similar concept, but I struggle with the leg action there too.

He doesn’t teach a specific swing especially the backswing. His method is about rotation and getting open and somewhat passive hands. from what I’ve read his new site is well designed and informative. One year subscription is the cost of a single lesson with him.

Using the ground is pretty common it seems, Gankas (to me) seems to want to do a major squat with big time leg separation while Clements wants golfers to slightly squat while rotating and using gravity to get the clubhead moving. No matter what, different styles work for different folks. Whatever gets you to shoot better golf is A-OK with me.

He promotes what looks like an excessive movement because in reality it isn't nearly as pronounced. This is something a lot of golfers seem to struggle with and it's one of the things I like about his methods. If you can get a golfer to FEEL like they are making this big exaggerated movement and then put them in front of a camera actually hitting a golf ball, the REAL is often much more subtle, but provides the end result you were looking for. russtopherb, Dr Strangelove and cnosil 3 Quote Driver: ST190 9.5* Fujikura Atmos Blue 5S Fairway Wood: ST190 15* Fujikura Atmos Blue 6S Hybrid: CLK 17* Fujikura Speeder EVO HB Irons: J40 CB (3-PW) Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 Wedges: Milled Grind 2 54* & 58* Dynamic Gold S200 Putter: Tri-Hot 5k Two 34" Bag: Players 5 Stand Bag Ball: Maxfli Tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildthing Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) What is GG 'using the ground' for exactly? I know Shawn Clement says 'get the ground' to get the body out of the way of the swinging 'arms/club unit' (being thrown to the target). That this is part of the 'kinetic chain' that we are already 'wired to do' when focused on doing an intended task. Seems there is a lot of talk about 'Ground Reaction Forces' and how it can relate to clubhead speed . But can anyone really explain exactly how squatting and 'pushing off' can create clubhead speed? Here is Shawn demonstrating the bobbing up and down that we would naturally 'bilaterally' do when we wanted swing something faster in a vertical plane. Note 'definition' of Bilateral movement is : Bilateral coordination refers to the ability to coordinate both sides of the body at the same time in a controlled and organized manner; for example, stabilizing paper with one hand while writing/ cutting with the other.Good bilateral integration/ coordination is an indicator that both sides of the brain are communicating effectively and sharing information. Imho , Shawn is demonstrating a different technique to create hand speed and sharp change in hand path. It seems to be a more natural way of creating clubhead speed while also retaining balance (using the muscles in the legs to brace against the increased tension in the clubshaft that is pulling on you). But remember that golf is not all about creating clubhead speed because you also have to square the clubface by impact. We might be 'wired in' to 'throwing things' to a target , but the squaring of the clubface by impact is unnatural imho.

The concept GG uses is the same as what Shawn was talking about and what he mentioned in the Sean foley article. The kinematic sequence uses the legs to initiate the downswing. Posting on the front leg has always been a principle in the golf swing. Legs straightens and club goes down. Rory and Lexi are good examples of udingbthe ground. with gg he also uses the ground to help with he squat and rotate. He uses the trail foot to externally rotate which gets the separation between the knees as the hips begin to rotate open. Then the trail foot helps initiate the push thru extension. James Jordan teaches this push as well. As Shawn mentioned lots of instructors use the same teaching but have different ways of explaining it. as for the clubface getting square the body rotation vice the hands are responsible for getting the clubface square. Being in the right positions throughout the swing allows this to be done with little manipulation needed by the hands Dr Strangelove 1 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a cause or an effect of pelvic rotation? For example see this instructors opinion on what turns the pelvis (it's not the feet torquing the ground) at 02:47 Basically he saying in the backswing 1. These pelvic rotary muscles stretch (especially the right side). 2. You weight pressure the right hip joint so its stable in space. 3. While point 2 happens , you contract those pelvic rotary muscles and they turn your pelvis counterclockwise (when you look from a top down view). The above sequence squares your pelvis from P4 to P5 only (as you do the squat) , then the 2nd phase of the downswing is using the glutes and other muscles (upper torso/obliques) to help rotate the pelvis some more (ie. from P5 onwards). The right foot torquing against the ground is an 'effect' of the above points 1-3 not a 'cause' for pelvis rotation. So we basically have 2 opinions on cause and effect of the pelvic rotation in the golf swing . Edited August 24, 2019 by Wildthing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildthing Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 (edited) I still don't understand how pushing the right leg/foot down and twist the foot/knee against the friction of the ground can provide enough twisting force to move a heavy pelvis around in the downswing . Imho , seems like a lot of twisting stress put on the right knee. I find it more realistic to regard the pelvic rotation happening (from P4-P5) due to the powerful contraction of the pelvic rotary muscles. Backswing : Basically you use your torso muscles to move your pelvis around , while your right foot is stabilised on the ground and that stretches those right sided pelvic muscles as your 'right hip joint/pelvis' reaches the end of its rotary degree of freedom (ie. on the tush line). Top Of Backswing /Transition : You get most of your weight pressure on that right hip joint - keeping it stable in space (ie. on the tush line). Downswing: P4- P5 (Hip squaring phase) : You contract those right sided pelvic muscles and it rotates the left (and partial right) side of pelvis back to the tush line (ie. while the right hip joint is still parked on the tush line by all that weight pressure). The above is just a general idea of an opinion that I tend to believe and its far more complex than the above (with regards which muscles are doing what in the full downswing).

My favorite part about the program is he explains everything so that you can self diagnose and correct. He doesn't just say what he feels are the right positions/moves - he explains ALL of the positions and moves and how each of them can impact the swing and ball flight.

RickyBobby_PR Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 1 hour ago, Dr Strangelove said: To be more clear, I don't think the Gankas videos that you can find on YouTube are very good. The ones I have seen are always him giving tips to some guy while talking 100 MPH and they look like they are shot with someone's iPhone. That's an exaggeration, but I don't want to pay $500 to get that. My point is that it would be nice to see a sample of what you are buying before putting down a substantial amount of money. Or a trial period etc. That’s not what you get from what Ive read. see above post from jlukes conforming what I’ve read elsewhere Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Strangelove Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I just enrolled in the program last week. I have to say it has exceeded my expectations. Each module/video is extremely detailed. My favorite part about the program is he explains everything so that you can self diagnose and correct. He doesn't just say what he feels are the right positions/moves - he explains ALL of the positions and moves and how each of them can impact the swing and ball flight. Thanks. That’s the type of insight I was looking for.

PMookie Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 So, it’s $500 to get access to videos, then the student self assesses? Wow. Does anyone get any direct, one-on-one, video lessons evaluating the “student’s” swing, specific responses from GG himself?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro null 1 Quote Driver: Ping G430 Max 9*, Ping Tour 70X Fairway: Ping G425 15*, Ping Tour 70X Hybrid: Ping G425 22*, Ping Tour 80X Irons: Ping i230 4-GW, TT DG X100 Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 Ball: Titleist 2023 AVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
