Most people with low arm actions have trouble with steep shoulders on the downswing or the right shoulder popping out as they try to shallow the club. In this new video Gary demonstrates how the right shoulder should work coming down and why steep shoulder and low arm actions cause so many problems.
There is so much written about the left wrist and the bowed look great ball strikers get post impact. If you look at Gary’s players closely they all have that look. Many players have to flip the left wrist under or flex it down the target line. In this video Gary demonstrates the other option and looks at the secret in the wrist.
Peter Senior just shot 11-under-par in the opening round of the NSW Senior Open at Thurgoona Country Club Resort. Senior only missed one green and made one bogey in an otherwise flawless round of golf.
” It is always nice to play a round where you never miss a shot” said Senior
He has been working hard on his swing in the lead up to the Australian Open in November.
Senior currently leads the field by 9 shots. . Nice Playing Pete!
Jan Stephenson is possibly the hardest working Right Sided Tour Professional. Jan is an integral part of the Edwin family and continues to prove that age is no barrier in golf. Today Jan was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame.
Jan has achieved so much in the last few years and is now being appreciated for all she has done in her career. We are lucky enough to have a video record of her journey. Congratulations Jan from all of us here at Gary Edwin Golf.
Most golfer’s have no idea what swing pattern they are! If you do the groundwork and understand your pattern and what causes your swing faults, you have a much better chance of fixing them. Quickly in this case!
We have just uploaded a new video for all the over-rotators! You know who you are!
In the early 2000’s Gary did a clinic with the great Moe Norman. Moe talked a lot about the importance of his starting angles and how his lower half really worked.
Many golfers get over-shaped at set-up and it makes their bodies rotate too much over the right axis.In this video Gary talks about over-shape and how it effects the leg gap back and down.
The arms pull the body into a turn. You can turn a lot and and still not get any coil. Turn in the wrong direction and you can’t swing your arms down. We have just uploaded Gary’s response to the question: Is it an Arm Swing or a Body Release?
Enjoy!
Most golfers who have lack power try to generate speed with the club-head. The term ‘club-head speed’ is so bad in this case because it conjures up the idea of the club-head passing the hands! In this video Gary looks at few of the modern heavy hitters and goes through some power options that don’t require flipping.
Release is for prisoners!
Practice rounds are not always hard work! Dame Laura Davies is almost as good as Kel Nagle at hitting the intentional dome!
Royal Lytham and St Anne’s is one of the most well respected courses in the Open rotation. Rebecca Artis played her first Major Championship at Royal Lytham nine years ago and was a little overwhelmed by the difficulty of the course. She made her first cut in the Open there this year and we have just posted some footage of this amazing golf course.
It can happen to anyone! Constantly flubbing and skulling chip shots feels really bad! Even Tour Players occasionally get the chipping horrors and start to pull out the putter instead of the wedge. Many students find that the small chip from just off the green can become the hardest shot they face. If your set-up angles are not right you do not have enough time to compensate on the small shots like you can with the full swing. In this video Gary shares some simple drills to practise that will fix the chipping horrors.
