    Recommendations/advice on improving mobility?

    I'll check out those channels :) My wife is pretty into yoga. Maybe if I do some with her, she'll be convinced to go out on the course with me. Haha

    Recommendations/advice on improving mobility?

    So I can work with static stretches all day, but I feel that's only going to get me so far. Mobility is an extreme hindrance for me. I greatly struggle with hip/shoulder separation, for starters. No matter the amount of drilling I do, I won't see improvement here. And I can still feel it in my...

    Black Hoof Park - Lenexa, KS

    Amazing in general. If you play from all longs to the long baskets, it's seemingly around 10k feet and virtually all wooded. Lots of par 4s, several par 5s, and tight fairways that are difficult but fair (i.e. there are legitimate gaps - doesn't mean they'll be all easy to hit). Multiple shot...

    Form Review - getting worse and losing distance!

    Apologies for all the different threads. You definitely caught me. From now on everything will stay condensed into this thread. My form wasn’t great to start and has undoubtedly gotten worse which is bizarre to me. I’ve felt quite off for many months now. Battering ram sounds like a fantastic...

    Form Review - getting worse and losing distance!

    https://youtu.be/rrxsvmVpeCs I did not realize that. Here’s a YouTube clip of them back to back if you wanted to check them out! The shifting from behind vs. in front concept is still a bit odd to wrap my head around conceptually. My thought is, that while my weight travels targetward, my butt...

    Form Review - getting worse and losing distance!

    https://imgur.com/a/xpQ1yKP Here are some rear and side views of my usual throw. In the past several months, for whatever reason, I've lost distance. Nose up issues have gotten worse, and OAT has not gotten any better - all that disregarding the fact I still cannot figure out how to engage my...

    It’s off-season, and I don’t know where to start. Help!

    No tourneys for a couple months. I still get out and play. Just not many rated rounds going on

    It’s off-season, and I don’t know where to start. Help!

    To sum things up, I have a to work on. Form-wise, so much is wrong. Throwing off my back heel, shrugging my throwing shoulder, taking too wide a plant step and not getting weight fully transferred, etc. All this leading to major losses in distance and accuracy. Oh, and my putting sucks. I...

    Why the Beato drill is so important.

    I'm getting a 404 error on this, what's the drill / video you're referencing?

    How do you all go about form work during the season, if at all?

    I know there is plenty else to work on during the season that is directly beneficial - putting and upshots primarily. My question is, is there a non-detrimental way to go about form work during the season? I'm playing in 1-2 tournaments a month from spring through the fall. I've only recently...

    Quick question on engagement of the hips

    I’ve always been curious to this - Is engaging one’s hips in a backhand actually an active movement, where you purposely “snap” the hips as you’re starting to brace? Or is it rather really a by-product of proper weight transfer into a good brace itself? Or even alternatively, am I thinking too...

    Drive Leg Mechanics

    I should try and emulate some things from him and see how they feel. I suppose you're right. The off arm really throws me off but his hop seems like it could really address some of the ER "issues" I face when trying to throw like someone else.

    Drive Leg Mechanics

    Awh man. This has always been my biggest want when looking for someone anatomically like me. A shorter, ER dominant pro, bonus points if they’re stocky too haha. I’ve always noticed Paul and drew and the likes seem to be very straight.
