If there is a range near you, then use it once a week but dont get too anal unless your having lessons and practising a technique. Should that not be possible then spend as much time as feasible working on chipping and putting, there is a reason why that is the number one tip tour professionals...

Yep!! Go next door to Pyrford, way better and nice folk too.

Honestly have no thoughts , other than I will ask Kirky next week when I see him. We have never discussed this and I am just reading the numbers off my pic (went back and checked them!) In reality I hit the ball very high and generate a fair bit of check. Which is why I tend to ignore total...

Cannot find my original thread about this. Thought I would post some of my stats so took some pics at my latest lesson. Wont let me post the pic so here goes , all with a 7 iron. club speed - 84.2mph smash factor - 1.36 ball speed - 114.02 mph carry - 166 yds total dist - 176 yds Back Spin -...

Just had a quick glance and was delighted to find I have played 4 of the top 10, and 6 of the top 12. The bonus being I am a member of No 12!!!! Woo Hooo!!!!

Hi James Starting back to front, I might well have a chat with Sam the next time I am over there. I do know the GM pretty well and visit a couple of times a year. However I am happy with Andy Kirk right now and I'm easily confused!! My age is 54 and in my late 40's before I stopped playing...

Absolutely correct. He is in the Gary Edwin camp. Personally I find him not a great communicator, its just that his videos are there for all to see and they give an illustration.

Pure speculation , but because it's not the "PGA" method? Had this very conversation with two friends on Thursday. One is a pro and the other used to be one. We came to the conclusion that the golf swing is not a "one size fits all". Not exactly a "No s*** Sherlock" moment I know! I happen to be...

I'm not saying I was taught to move off the ball. What this does is allow me is to stay centred and deliver the cub more efficiently. I'm confused by your comment about marketing. Part of the reason for this thread is I had never come across it before, yet Gary Edwin , Billy Bondaruk et al have...

I can absolutely say it's working for me. I have dropped 3 shots in a couple of months, although hardly playing at my home course. Have been on 5 trips (lucky git I know!) since I started seeing Andy , have won 4 and came third in the other as I missed day one and was given the worst score...

Apologies for the tardy response. I'm having lessons with Andy Kirk at Guildford. The reason for me posting is the excellent outcome from going to see him. It's important to me though that this thread is not seen as and ad for Andy! He's a pretty strong character and might not suit all, but I...

Take your point completely and I had never heard of it either. Turns out its been around for ages! Gary Edwin has been teaching it for 20+ years.

Def not stack and tilt Homer. Although it FEELS like I'm just waving my arms , on camera it's a full coil and I'm ripping my irons. I have always struggled with moving off the ball and this is keeping me centred.

In in one respect I'm lucky in that in need straight and control, not distance as I'm long enough. However I'm 54 and at least a club shorter than when I stopped playing in 2008. But my numbers are ok, I carry my 7 iron 165 on a normal good swing, driver carry is 265 with same effort. I think I...

Have had a look at this. There are similarities but I think it's very different in the alignment and not as balanced imho?
