As for that King dude.....

(here: www.golfpro-online.com/tuition/lking/index.html)

That's a pretty cool site anyway....lots of pics and swing stuff....(if you click on the lessons at the bottom of the page)

I skimmed through it....and a lot of seems to be pretty good.....the setup stuff seemed to be good (from what I got out of it from very quickly skimming)....

But then I got to lesson 6...

"The clubface MUST not roll open in the backswing."

...

Seems to be method teaching...

I mean....this would work for Palmer, Trevino, Lema, Irwin, Funk, Duval, etc...(anyone with that kind of clubface control)

But not for Hogan, Mickelson, Jones, blah blah blah etc. etc.

Personally, that guy wouldn't be a good fit for me...(I use Standard Wrist Action....i.e. with a swivel in the takeaway and right before the Release)...

Skimming more...

Some good stuff...

But lots of "musts" (turns me off...method teaching) and not lots of "whys" to back em up. (from what I can see anyway)

Teaches a strong grip ("strong" as in the mainstream meaning of strong...i.e. Turned in TGM)....and apparently you "must" do it.

Judging by the pictures, he seems to like a Snap (very late) Release with an Arched left wrist at Impact....which is good of course.

Again from the pictures, he also seems to have, in my opinion, a good handle on the pivot...

....Pivot Alignments anyway (in my opinion)....not sure about Physics.

...

Still...too many generalizations and "musts" IMO...(kind of anti TGM with regard to options)....

Doesn't talk about any kind of Hinging or post-Impact hand Alignments in these articles.

...

K I'm done...

Haha...that's my review...

(bear in mind he may have evolved since these articles or something like that....but who knows)
