Alignment Golf

Comment: Not enough of Lynn Blake's total motion!

V.J. and I originally envisioned the first disc as a "Basic Motion / short game" video. For those who have seen the DVD, it obviously became far more. Hence, I did not demonstrate a Total Motion Stroke until the situation called for it (Left Wrist Throw Drill / Disc #2).

Nevertheless, there are plenty of Release / Impact / Follow Through alignments explained and demonstrated throughtout the Series.

True. But watching expert execution of a right forearm takeaway with a centered and stationary head is fun...as well as encouraging!

I have only watched the putting DVD once. My initial question is whether my putting stroke should influence my selection of putter type. For example, if using a shoulder only stroke with horizontal hinging would a heel/toe balanced putter be better?? Conversely, if I am using a push basic stroke with vertical hinging would a face balanced putter work better?? Or is it all just a matter of preference?? Thanks.

I was lucky enough to receive one of the MMOC cd's and it is refreshing to know that Lynn has not changed his TGM approach to teaching the golf swing.
VJ demonstates the basic motion but only with a push hitting action - Can basic motion be done as both a hit and a swing? The motion is so short I am not sure if it comes into play.

Thanks for the video, Yoda. I watched it one time, and I pulled in a 81 at my golf course. This is my best yet! I know I can go lower.

The things I pulled off your Video was to practice the tripod drill and frozen right wrist. And with my right elbow into the picture.



Thanks for the wonderful DVD!

Looking forward to seeing more and shooting lower.

Thank you, Ball Turf! V.J. and I could not be more pleased!

Thanks for your comments, mb. As always, I appreciate them!

That said, I disagree that V.J.'s Basic Motion action is a Push Basic Stroke. Personally, I think he demonstrates both the Hitting and Swinging strokes with a Fanning Right Elbow -- which suggests, at a minimum, a Punch Basic Stroke -- and this negates the Push Basic Stroke. It cannot be both.

I think that if you saw a Stroke with the Right Elbow kept 'up and out' -- versus 'at the side' or 'down in front' -- and with the Hands kept between the Elbow and the Ball, you would see a tremendous difference.

For anyone still considering this DVD package I cannot recommend it enough.

I have now decided the optimal way of viewing as well.

Step 1.

Watch all 3 DVDs

Step 2.

From what you have seen you should have a good idea where you have been going wrong, identify the areas most in need of improvement.

Step 3.

Revisit DVD 2 and make detailed notes on the drills you most want to work on.

Step 4.

Go to work!

oh yeah, and keep a log!
