What's the best way to take your game from the practice range to the golf course? It's a question I get asked a lot, most recently by Jan Gourlay. Many golfers like Jan think that they swing much better on the range than on the course.
I'm really excited to share today's question with the Surge Nation because it's one that I don't think I've ever had in the thousands of daily videos I've recorded over the last few years. It has to do with the relationship between the Peak Performance Golf Swing and ball flight.
Regardless of how good you're hitting the ball, the mental side of the game can be even more important. That's because when you play a round of golf, you're introducing more aspects besides just beating balls on the range. You have to analyze each shot, which can be a daunting task during a four... more
The driver is a tough club to hit. In fact, it's probably the hardest club to hit consistently out of all of your other clubs. It doesn't help that most drivers today are being built way too long for the average golfer either, which makes it even more difficult.
I recently received a nicely written message from Don Klein commending the Peak Performance Golf Swing. Of course it's always nice to hear that golfers are playing pain-free golf and having positive results, but the reason I wanted to share the message with the Surge Nation isn't just because it... more
Do you ever top the ball and wonder why it happened? If you answered yes, then you know that nothing is worse than following up a great shot with a cold topper that barely dribbles down the fairway.
Today I'd like to share a testimonial that was sent in regarding wearing bifocals while playing golf. Many of you have heard me say that you absolutely cannot wear bifocals when you play golf. But, for many of you, those are the only type of glasses that you have. If that's the case, you've got... more
Having a preshot routine will really help you with your consistency. Getting into the proper setup is very important, but it can be challenging if you don't have any sort of structure that you follow on each shot. All the best players have routines because it allows them to get into a rhythm... more
Posture is so important because it has to do with your setup and as you all should know, your setup determines the motion of your golf swing. But, in order to have correct posture, you've got to have clubs that will allow you to put yourself in the right position over the ball.
Today, Doc Griffin is going to give us all a lesson on kickpoint. Different shafts and the speed in which a player swings the club correlate to kickpoint. If you're swinging a club that's not fit exactly for you, kickpoint is one aspect of your clubs that will most likely be way off.
Choosing which golf ball you play on a regular basis can be a bit of a challenge, especially with so many options that are currently on the market. Just because professionals use a certain ball, doesn't mean that's necessarily the best ball for you to use.
Over the past few weeks, there's been some confusion on the topic of vertical alignment. So, today I want to clarify what I mean whenever I reference this aspect of the Peak Performance Golf Swing setup.
This past week, Kenny Knox and Dave Seeman showed us how to execute bunker shots as well as tricky pitch shots around the green. Today, they're back to cover chipping, another important part of your short game.
Today I want to talk about one aspect of the setup position. With the Peak Performance Golf Swing, we have two major setup positions.
Ever since graphite was introduced into the game of golf, men and women have had to decide on whether to use steel shafts or graphite shafts. If you're not sure how to determine which to use, it can get a bit overwhelming when shopping for new clubs.
Today's topic is the master setup position. It doesn't stem from a question sent in to the website, but from my own observations at some of our recent PPGS Performance Golf Schools.
With two PGA TOUR tournaments taking place this weekend, you've got plenty of options to watch the best players in the world play golf. DJ's currently playing some good golf at the Puerto Rico Open, which is great to see since he's been swinging so well lately.
Most golfers today have at least one hybrid in their bag. Over the last ten years or so, hybrids have become a mainstay in golf and it's because they are usually a lot easier to hit than long irons. Even professional golfers have made the transition to hybrids, so it's important that we all... more
Though the title suggests it, I'm not referring to the origins of the universe in today's daily video. The Big Bang Theory is actually the term I use when talking about the transition and the bump in the Peak Performance Golf Swing.
Depending on where you live and what time of day you like to play, cold weather is something a lot of us have to deal with when playing golf. This is especially true during what I would call the "off season." Those who live in year-round golf conditions such as Florida still have to deal with... more
Regardless if you swing with the PPGS or not, it's critical that you have clubs that are designed for you. Clubs need to be based on your own personal body and swing measurements.
As we get older, our bodies begin to lose their ability to heal quickly and sometimes nagging pain can lead to serious injury. Luckily, by using the Peak Performance Golf Swing, many Surgites don't have to worry about playing with pain because the swing is so body-friendly.
Most golfers tend to overlook their short game when they practice. But, having a well rounded short game can really help lower your scores and make up for bad approach shots.
You've heard me say before that our knees act as our levelers and stabilizers. We don't want to let our knees collapse inward because it will cause us to lose the rest of our angles of the swing. But, in order to control the knees, you must be aware of what your feet are doing.
What's the first thing you need in order to make a proper Peak Performance Golf Swing? If you answered custom fit clubs, you're right.
