Very good Michael! I continue to search for ways to explain these concepts to people and this is another great way to visualize it. A lot of times my attempt to verbalize gets me a far away gaze!

Any other ideas that you suggest? Props or other aides?

Thanks!

I like it! Visual definitely a plus in helping understand concept.

I think you did a good job explaining this, and I'm looking forward to part 2. One question if you do don't mind in the meantime: I think I finally understand that you need to swing to the left for the irons and it varies by the club. Would it be best to just mentally know that you have to do this and then swing that way, or do you prefer taking a stance that aims you left? If so, you are swinging left of the actual target, but would you then still aim the face at the intended target? would this be the same as taking a stance to the left but having an open face? sorry for the confusion.
thanks

I have the same question. It seems like when I aim left I tend to pull it.

Thanks Matt, one of my favorite demonstrations that I thought would be a nice one to share with everyone to end the Explosive Golf Show season. Plan on doing the outdoor part real soon, hope the weather will cooperate here in NY

Steve,

There are some great little innovative ways to help golfers see and understand the concepts. But, there is no substitute for having access to the 3D doppler radar and actual measure and see the data. When a student sees their data on a computer screen it takes the opinion out of the equation and makes the learning process so much easier. It's like an xray and then we find little ways to explain and interpret the x ray results. The hula hoop demonstration here is my favorite and I always have a modification that I use for it at times that ties it in with the Vertical Swing Plane Angle.. I will take a little clip of that one as well before I do the outdoor part #2
