Dont comment if you have no clue.
Even worse dont comment if you believe you have a clue when you dont.
You failed the challenge so your just full with nonsense.
Clueless.

Flopper. Go hide in the corner with dtowngolf; cover your ears and listen very carefully. The angle of the swing you posted makes him look better than he is. He has a lot of work to do. But in regards to your challenge I would like to remind you that nobody here has private planes. If I did then I would not travel to Sweden; and I would not be seen trying to play a 25 HC

Post the swing from this angle and aimed at the red so everyone can properly assess what changes are being made and laud you for your accomplishments.

No axe to grind here nor favour either camp, but;

If the published swing angle, which I cannot veiw on my phone, doesn't enable decent perspective in which to comment on swing improvement ~ how then is one able to give an accurate critique on the flaws/impediments?

As a bystander only...
the Austin thing is intriguing,
i have the DVD,
i found the book lying around at the driving range pro shop,
so i am scanning it now.
but i see it is available at amazon
it actually seems more informative than the dvd
I think what i like about is that it could be quite useful and easy enough on a 60 year old body.
I already have a square to path takeaway, good tempo from years of practice,
experimenting now with getting the hips moving and the left knee coming in not out,
still as ever i never "find my way" back to the ball properly,
today's suspicion is that is due to the shaft going outside the hands in the downswing,
the shaft goes up to steep and comes down too steep, i see this on video of my swing.
that wil be today's range practice, keeping the club head sort of under/behind the hands.

I hope you don't my responding however I don't believe this to be the best source of information for learning the MA swing type and principles. I took a lesson from Dan ( i also have the book you reference and other materials from Dan) and while he's a very nice man, i find that he has added his interpertation of Mike's swing concepts that i find conflicts w/ alot of MA direct instructional info, i.e., austinology and gimi as two examples. I would however recommend Steve Pratt's web site (no i don't receive fees for recommending). The most important aspect about the swing is learning to swing properly around a stable C7 ..... as a starting point i might add that it is the only part of your anatomy that stays on plane the entire swing. Everything else supports this motion ... there is alot to understand about what Mike Austin taught and i can say from experience that the journey is well worth the effort...

I can offer what Mike Austin actually taught over many years. I have posted clips of actual lessons with Mr. Austin at www.mentoredbythelegend.com. They come without the twisting, pulling and tongue lashing that I endured. Hope they shed some light on the subject and help players out. I can tell you that he helped me immeasurably and I witnessed some amazing results in other students (men and women, young and old) in terms of both power and accuracy.

Nice videos. Very helpful. Explains a few things that I couldn't quite grasp. Thanks for posting.

Austin left age 70+, Hans using the BMS system and austin age 40+

Camera angle is off again. Hans is still tipping out. Look at the right elbow and right heel.

Better than Austin.

[saabrad]

i know i'm just coming into this thread that's been two years in the making, but i'm sold on the concept. how do i go "all in" to learning this swing? where do i begin and what should i be on the lookout for (both good and bad)?

[hyunkang0403]

The golf swing is not hard. It just takes lots of practice! Learn to trust yourself and what your mind and body is telling you about your own swing. You are your best teacher. Squish has developed a system based on some solid fundamentals and a method that suits him the best. This doesn't mean copy everything exactly to a T. There are no shortcuts to anything in life. Let this guide be a baseline for some solid fundamentals but the only way to get desired results is to be your own swing coach and practice!

Any thoughts on controlling trajectory. I find that the freewheeling arm-club linkage with a centripetal release flights the ball a little higher than i would like. Trying to control the flight by bowing the left and cupping the right is hard on the wrists at this swing speed, especially when you like to pound as many balls as as i do.

put leadtape on head.
shouldnt need to hold off the release, check the distance carry and spin rate.

[TexasTurf]

This is the most insightful thread I have ever read on this forum. And, besides my lack of participation, I have read almost all the big instruction threads. This seems to work with both the fascia and muscle and joint movement theories (and not the lower spine rotational, forward weight shift bullshit so commonly taught these days)

[stingerfade]

First 14 pages are awesome. Then the trolls come in. Nice showing by RBImguy if anyone wants to reminisce.

[Golfbeat]

I started to read this thread but it is stuffed with complete, utter gibberish. What on earth can you do with this information.

[rich_s2]

I would have liked to have known you

But you got banned from here

Your candle burned out long before

Your legend ever did

 

[glk]

Get a chuckle from it and move on. That is what I did. The stuff of wrx past.

[stingerfade]

The bit about starting the downswing by pushing right foot CW Into the ground is what everyone teaches now

[isaacbm]

Anybody who feels this thread resonates with them is not Being a natural athlete. Possibly the most unuseable drivel I have ever come across at any point in my life. And that’s saying something for this site!

I disagree dan!
