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. ...

If you’re still puzzled, this golf video tip from Plane Truth instructor Kevin Flynn highlights the key differences between the two as well as the pros and cons of each. brightcove.createExperiences();

One plane: A more stable release

Kevin Flynn, 06 January 2012 12:33

A one-plane swing is preferable over a two-plane swing because the clubface goes through much less rotation through the hitting area. In this golf video tip, Plane Truth instructor Kevin Flynn demonstrates a drill with a cane that highlights the benefits of swinging in this manner. brightcove.createExperiences();

Four-foot zone checkpoint

Kevin Flynn, 06 January 2012 12:30

In a one plane golf swing, the arm plane matches the shoulder plane at the top of the backswing. But rather than turning correctly in the backswing, many one-plane golfers lift out of their spine angle, which causes problems with strike and accuracy. This simple checkpoint from Plane Truth instructor Kevin Flynn will help you turn while maintaining your posture ...

Make your range sessions count

Gareth Johnston, 02 December 2011 10:38

The weekend golfer regrettably doesn’t get much time to practice. So when 20 minutes of range time does become available, it’s important that you use it as productively and effectively as possible. This routine set out by TG Elite Pro Gareth Johnston will get you hitting every club in your bag and increase the chance of taking those well-struck range ...
