Break 80: We want drag, not drop

Adrian Fryer, 01 May 2012 11:29

The better player has learned the downswing begins from the ground up. However the muscles in the thighs and hips are strong; it’s easy to drive them too hard, causing the club to drop inside and lag behind. Sensing a block the player releases hard, creating a hook. To solve this problem, we need to get out of that old, ...

Break 100: Set the clubface shut

Adrian Fryer, 01 May 2012 10:49

Clubface aim and swingpath are linked… and often in the form of a vicious circle. As the face opens, the right-handed golfer hits further left to allow for it; and the further left he hits, the more he opens the face. This relationship causes problems both for the high-handicap club player, who tends to start down with his upper body ...

How to learn golf faster

Adrian Fryer, 13 February 2012 17:06

Research by Dr Gabriele Wulf on attentional focus and motor learning has shown that learning with external cues means skills are learned faster and retained for longer than those that use internal cues. By cue, we mean a focus or stimuli, such as a command or body part. In golf, an external cue is anything outside your body, such as ...

Feed what you need

Adrian Fryer, 09 February 2012 16:21

It’s important we structure our practice so that it’s weighted towards getting rid of our faulty tendencies. Rehearsing the move that is the opposite of it in your pre-shot routine on the course will certainly help but in practice, it’s important favour the corrective move in terms of the number of balls you hit. As TG Elite Pro Adrian Fryer ...

Understand ‘parallel’ alignment

Adrian Fryer, 02 February 2012 13:26

Many amateurs think they’ve got to aim their body and club at the target but in actual fact the shoulders, hips and toes need to be aimed parallel left of the target, the two lines should never converge. When you aim the body at the target the club will usually aim right of it as a result, for a right-handed ...

Combine a picture with a feeling

Adrian Fryer, 27 January 2012 09:17

Research has shown that learning becomes up to 80 per cent more effective if you combine a picture with a feeling. You can optimise your time working on your movements by better understanding where your body is in space. This also increases the chance of the skill being retained so it’s well worth incorporating this in your future practice sessions. ...

Simplify your swing plane

Adrian Fryer, 03 June 2011 16:06

There are so many different ways you can check your swing plane. Trying too many of these methods can over-complicate your swing, taking away the fluidity and tempo, which will compromise your ball striking. The key is to simplify your thought process, as TG Elite Teaching Pro Adrian Fryer explains in this golf video tip. Remember that all your doing ...

Switch to a target focus

Adrian Fryer, 03 June 2011 15:46

Problems with ball-striking arise when you stare too intently at the ball before starting your swing. Watch any of the Tour pros on TV and you’ll notice they spend more time looking at their target when standing over the ball. As TG Elite Pro Adrian Fryer explains in this golf video tip, your focus should always be on where you ...

Keep moving during your pre-shot routine

Adrian Fryer, 27 May 2011 12:36

Amateurs often struggle when their mind becomes cluttered with too many swing thoughts standing over the ball. The only way you can hit successful shots is when your mind is free of technique and focused on the target. The key to overcome this is to keep moving during your pre-shot routine and limit the time you spend looking at the ...

Practice with baby steps to improve quicker

Adrian Fryer, 27 May 2011 12:31

Most of us will have had at least one golf lesson in our time and consequently have an idea as to the part of our swing that needs the most work, whether it’s the takeaway, downswing or clubhead release. So rather than trying to integrate a feeling of a certain part of the swing while hitting full shots, break your ...
