    Mike,

    I use the basic "nuclear" swinging pattern taught in your Explosive Golf DVD. After several poor rounds this Spring, I decided to review EG chapter by chapter. I realized that I was trying to get way too much speed out of the body turn. I went to the range yesterday and slowed the body turn down and immediately regained the accuracy and "snap" that is characteristic of the nuclear swing. I had gotten away from your basic concept of how the nuclear swing transfers energy to the club head.

    I guess the lesson I learned is that I can drift away from "doing" the basics even though I "know" the basics of the nuclear swing.

    Bob,

    Great to hear from you, I always have known that there are many fans of one of my legacy videos 'Explosive Golf Volume #1' I had made a revised version of it but I left it in the video freezer as I am going to keep the original as is and leave it in a category of 'LEGACY VIDEOS' that I will have for sale that may not be 100% up to date but dam good at helping golfers. The core concept is that the club has a lot of traveling to do as it comes around and lines up for impact, sequencing your body movements and organizing them in an orderly manner helps the club face 'line up' for impact.

    Thanks for the post Bob, I always like hearing these things!
