RickyBobby_PR Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 I started going back thru the course again last week reviewing the short game sections on chipping and pitching as I’m going to be getting back to adding more practice time to these areas again like I did several years back. This weekend I started reviewing the full swing videos again with focus on setup and backswing. For those that may be curious about the website and what type of detail is in it. For the full swing he has 4 sections foundations which goes over a lot of his terminology. Setup, backswing and downswing. The number of videos in each varies as does the length of each from :30 to 7+ mins. each of those topics is broken down into sections with a series of videos in each. Foundations has 25 videos Setup 45 backswing 20 downswing 151 heres a few snippets of the topics in the downswing. In both the backswing and downswing he has a section going over p1-p10 both from a face on and down the line. bens197, Kenny B, M.

Very difficult for me. Since I have been working on my swing, I have neglected a lot of the short game practice I used to do. Got to get back on that, as well.

Rotation is my big issue to it’s related to lack of depth in the backswing and arm structure. The focus of my lessons last year with one of gg’s students turned teacher was working on reducing forearm and shoulder rotation and better hip depth. I had other priorities going on so I didn’t put much focus on practicing but going to change that this year. A couple years ago I got away from spending time at one of the local courses that has a good practice green. Going to spend at least an hour there this year along with time working on the swing again. bens197 and Kenny B 2 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...

bens197 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 1 week down with the shallower. I won't go deep dive but just some quick points if anyone here wants to expound. 1) It is fantastic for putting. Anyone who struggles to keep their arms moving congruently or fights their wrists breaking, it would certainly help. 2) There is no set forearm for RH v LH. I swing RH but I am naturally left handed. I've found more success with it on my left forearm than my right. George recommends RH golfers wear it on their right forearm. I am not trying to be a rebel, it just works better for me and what I am trying to feel and see on video. 3) I've liked warming up with it on the range using wedges. Pitches for 10-25 shots help me really create some rhythm and tempo but also set a good foundation for the bigger swings. There will be more. It's pretty simple but gets the job done. I can leave it in my carry bag without sacrificing space and for a guy who isn't a big fan of training aids, GG made a product that I really enjoy. null, cnosil, Nolan220 and 1 other 4 Quote Titleist TSi3 Fujikura Speeder NX Blue 60X TaylorMade SIM2 3 wood Fujilkura Ventus Blue 7-X Titleist U505 2 Tensei 1K Black 85 X Titleist T100 4-P Nippon Modus 3 120X PING S159 50-S 55-H 59-T DG X100 Vokey SM8 50, SM9 54 & 60 Nippon Modus 3 120s L.A.B.

Very similar, but the one thing I struggled with planemate is the transition. I couldn’t shallow properly. Helped with my takeaway. Helped with partial shots, but just shallow out properly with it. I feel like this is already giving me better feedback and at the top of the backswing than the planemate did. And I don’t need a backpack to carry thing to the range! bens197 and Nolan220 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He picks it up moves it towards the target and then places it back down. I'm starting to get it by trying to emulate the Matt Wolff pre-swing squat, but at this point my hips are still moving to far forward as they turn. I know I'm late to the convo on this, but I love Eric Cogorno, and the 2 latest videos on his channel have been a huge help to me on improving hip rotation and timing.

booyaa138 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I've been thinking about pulling the trigger on the online course with Gankas also. How I think about it is how many lessons could you get for $500 these days from a good golf instructor? With all the info he gives you and also the fact that you can summit videos I feel its a great deal. Quote I wish I could play golf more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
