Good video John L. Many of my students can be helped by understanding extension.

wow excellent video I struggle with the stand and flip move- my only other question is how to get the club on the right path when you do that move and not come over the top-

Nice video, John. You do a very good job communicating your advice and demonstrating your points. I've learned a lot watching you. Thanks.

This feels like it’s going to be a game changer for me. I had never thought about the hip rotation being on a downward angle like that before. Great visual. Thanks.

This appears to be very close to the sensation my latest teacher was trying to instill in my swing. Still a work in progress, but I think it's working for me.

Whoosh .. game changer !! This has really helped my driver play. It’s also gotten me to properly hinge and release the wrists. My power has returned and I’m hitting the drives a lot higher now as well. Thanks John great lesson !
