Downloaded last night, will watch tonight! I have a tournament on saturday, so looking to add 20 yards and/or ruin my swing completle lulz

 

Watch it Saturday night.

 

I figured this was the case

 

I would have probably watched and implemented it during my round...and Monte knows this...

Well, to be honest, I was going to hit the range tonight and see how it was. If it was decent I was going to leave it alone, if it was a pile of dog dookie like last round I was going to watch the video and/or leave the driver in the car lol

 

You should be like Pepsi. Have the best range session ever, watch the video, then implement all 4 hours. :-)

The secret is to rehearse every move mentioned in the 4 hour video prior to each swing on the course. It's obviously the only way to ingrain the swing change.

Downloading! Can't wait to watch. Have a tournie on Saturday and understand the smart man watches it after the tournie. But, there is zero chance I don't watch prior - nuh uh. Thanks Monte!

The post-production takes this video from great to amazing. No wonder it took so long to finish. I've watched almost all of Monte's YouTube videos and a couple of the pay ones... This is the best of the lot. Clear, comprehensive and an incredible value. The added graphics will increase your understanding tenfold.

 

Highly, highly recommend.

The right shoulder movement in the downswing is a big misconception of mine - Monte's explanation is a big nugget.

The drill in module 1 with centered head and moving from left shoulder / right foot to right shoulder / left foot is magic. I have always had a very hard time not getting too deep / too flat with elbow stuck behind me - like for a dozen years. Many instructors, read a ton, and never figured it out. It was almost entirely in my body rotation and not so much in my arms/elbows (arms/elbows are always what other instructors pointed to but it never came close to solving the problem (very frustrating)). Tough to explain, but essentially I was rotating my body more in the depth dimension which kind of forced my arms deep. This drill magically got my arms up in a good location (hands over right shoulder) with loads of the extensor pressure you are supposed to feel (never felt it before). Like a dog with a new chew toy. How am I supposed to sleep before hitting the range tomorrow before work?

Really excited to dig into this video! Also, I really hope it has a blooper reel during the credits, a la Cannonball Run 1981...

 

How can there be a blooper real when I did everything in 1 take? :-)

I think there should have been 10 minutes of Monte smoking driver with the Protracer graphics. Just sayin'.

Great idea. My video guy wanted to do that. I wanted as little "Look how awesome I am" as possible.

only through the first hour and I have about 3 things that I can use

 

perpendicular shoulder over the right foot while aiming the butt of the club outside the ball - will really help me get deep enough on the backswing WHILE maintaining that secondary tilt WHILE getting the shaft on plane, DAMN thats nice!

bump dump and turn - kind of a familiar concept but the terminology and description presents it in a new way that makes much more sense than just "lead with the hips"

maintain eyeline to target - genius

 

even the stuff that doesn't necessarily pertain to me has taught me so much about the swing, and im only an hour in!

This might be a dumb question but can you let the weight of the clubhead uncock your wrists with driver like with wedges and still get good clubhead speed?

 

Yes

Monte's costume changes are almost as impressive as Katy Perry's!

 

Needed to do a spell check on the graphics -- allignment?

 

Actually I only had two different outfits. Had on the black pants one day where there was no plan to shoot and we did. The other change was the same outfit, but it got really cold so I had to add a layer.

 

As far as the typo. There is an airplane in the sky during Troy and guys in jeans in the crowd during Gladiator. Editing mistakes happen.

The Mayans were an extremely advanced civilization with flying aircraft. It was likely a spy plane.

Psshhh. Shows what you know. The Mayans were on the other side of the world.

 

It was Atlantis.

 

Silly goose.

Guarantee if it was a crowd shot in Cinemax's Spartacus, nobody would notice that stuff!
