You can generate a lot of power with the speed of your arms and the shaft. If you coil around a central axis and have your radius correct you can swing your arms faster and further. In this video Gary talks about how to develop more speed without losing accuracy.
The Body Posture and the Arm Structure take care of where the club goes in the Right Sided Swing. If you get into position early and maintain Radius you can focus on the motion and easily add more speed.
Without the correct Arm Structure it is impossible to set the club. In this Lesson Gary explains how the Left and Right Side should work and the importance of maintaining Radius.
Here is a bit of footage from the clinic at the UK RSS Tournament 2016. Gary talks about ball control and some young Right-Siders demonstrate how to move the ball both ways.
Can you expand on the Hogan wrap and your thoughts on the possible correlation between that and radius? A video would be awesome : ) Regards Bruce
Basic chipping technique, higher spinning chips and bunker shots, all require the same Body Shape. In this video Gary outlines chipping and bunker technique and discusses the importance of constant radius.
One of main principles of The Right Sided Swing is constant swing radius. Radius of the Arms and Hands, and the radius of the clubhead. In this video Gary talks about what Radius is, where it is measured from, and a drill he uses with his players to help maintain Radius.
Tour Players usually have great awareness of the things they do not like about their golf swing.This Lesson progression with young Tour Player Quinton Howe, shows the importance of Spine Angle and how you can change the look of your swing in a few lessons if you start in the right place.
Gary often talks about ‘dead weighting’ the club to get the radius of the takeaway correct. This is a good feeling for students who over-hinge and stagnate going back.
This short video was filmed at a recent clinic where 2013 Right Sided Champion Jason Pavese is talking about radius and how to maintain it. Gary also talks about the importance of mirror work.
You can generate a lot of power with the speed of your arms and the shaft. If you coil around a central axis and have your radius correct you can swing your arms faster and further. In this new video Gary talks about how to develop more speed without losing accuracy.
Have you ever been told that your left arm is too straight? or even worse, that it is too bent? If you turn vertically and slide your hips your left arm is going to look too bent. We have just uploaded a new Tour Player Lesson to the Members area where Gary explains in detail […]
Getting control the the club-face starts with proper wrist and arms angles. You can bypass the concept of having to ‘educate your hands’ by beating balls on the range. The advantage of having a ‘neutral club-face’ that is square to your body turn is that you never need to manipulate your hands or change your […]
Taking the spin off the ball by varying the speed of the shaft can only be done correctly if you have the right radius and you are covering the ball. In this video Gary shows how his players hit the ‘Arm Ball’ with the RSS and talks about why some players have difficulty hitting this […]
The early era of golf instruction was all about shifting weight laterally. In the 1980’s a few guys looked closer at some of the better ball strikers of the past and decided they didn’t like lateral and wide going back. They talked more about sequence and had a better understanding of swing radius and what […]
Understanding Swing Radius is the key to creating power without giving up consistency. A lot of players get narrow coming down because they are trying to get lag the wrong way, they tend to hit it low and hook the ball. In this video Gary explains how to get store-up without pulling the club down.

GaryI don’t have many regrets in life but the one regret I do have is not meeting you when I was in my thirtiesI am 64 and can honestly state I have never hit a golf ball like I currently hit it !My last 2 medal rounds of 74 gross have been disappointing, silly errors […]
Shallowing the club early in the downswing helps maintain the original radius of the club-head from the torso but also allows the body to stay in its original posture during the downswing. It is one of the most mystical features of all the great ball strikers. This month in the Members Area Gary explains why […]
Have you ever tried to shorten your swing but couldn’t? Some students try to shorten their arm swing and it makes their wrists hinge more. Gary often talks about ‘dead weighting’ the club to get the radius of the takeaway correct. We have just posted a video of Gary explaining this concept and how it […]
