Played the PGA Tours of the world for just over 20 years. Won a few, lost a few. My own bed is great after that many years in hotels. Teaching golf now hoping to give people good information to improve to whatever standard they want to reach.
It's called 'golf' because all the other four letter words were already taken

Bradley Hughes replied to the topic Re: Bradley Hughes- The Golf Swing in the forum.Cool BradO...thanks for posting the lil man whacking... down low and working around...good stuff

I think a good drill for getting more low and left on my follow through would be to try to hit golf balls with a glove under my right shoulder, so it has to stay tucked in to keep the glove.

Bradley Hughes replied to the topic Re: Bradley Hughes- The Golf Swing in the forum.Pictures below of my swing in 2001 (long pants) when I was still working on guidance of set early on the backswing and stay on my left leg- compared to 2011 (shorts) when I knew all that info was wrong and had started working on rectifying it
2001 one pics - steeper down- leaning onto left leg with no spine angle- snapped straight left leg- no right leg pressure or grind- arm throwaway through impact- clubface closure on exit... HORRENDOUS as my instincts told...
