Elk/Doyle
Did anyone see the Champions Clinic from the 2002 P.G.A. Championship? Steve Elkington had Mr. Doyle's address procedure down to perfection. He also included a little T.G.M. in his brief demonstration of how to hit(actually Swing) the long irons.

What are the main concepts that Andy works on? What are his views on the book in general? |

Annikan,
Yes, Elk has been playing well. I saw him hit(swing) a drive at Doral this spring. I noticed his left foot was flared out quite a bit, looked like about 60 degrees or so. He crushed the drive... right down the middle, as I recall. |

After Ben did all the HARD work, these guys get to play around with zone 3.
Simple as that.
Now....there is a ART to zone 3 instruction, and I am sure they are good at it....
Just not a big MORAD fan.
Sorry.

I am sure they are.
No offense meant, just never saw a MORAD swing that didn't looked 'rigged.'

Brian,
Why do a lot of players who get coached extensively by Ben have IMO too much body movement? No pivot centered tripod. Ben says: "My head moves because of momentum"...that's a bad excuse IMO.

I did a whole video on the subject.
The working title was: "Pivot Wars."
But, at some point in a teacher-student relationship, the student needs to figure out that it can become more off a democracy.
As far a head movement goes....I can show you TONS of world-famous golfers who had it...and just as many who didn't.
