Thanks so much for your help. I wasn't even expecting a response from my? comment. As soon as the weather warms up a bit I'll head to the range.

Listen to him! It's solid gold.
@thegonz9 You got ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 21 Jan 12, 12:47:01 @thegonz9 You got it!! It is even easier? if you just keep 60% weight on the front foot, like an anchor, push the takeaway straight back and up using the front shoulder, then just fire the hips on the downswing.
@fourdulai You want ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 21 Jan 12, 12:43:35 @fourdulai You want to feel that your "Left Hip" is being pulled behind you, unwinding. The left hip does NOT slide to? the left first. If you feel the need to slide to the left first as the first move on the downswing, you setup with too much weight right to begin with or you moved off the ball on your takeaway. This will help, start with 60% weight on front foot and keep it there on the backswing so there is no need to slide to front foot because you are already there just unwind.
Sir, I have tried ... By: fourdulai. on 21 Jan 12, 09:05:56 Sir, I have tried your method many times and found that nothing really trigger the downswing. I used my left bottom to push a little bit to the left side and that did trigger my hip and shoulder to turn before I accelerate my swing. At the? same time, my left side hip was clear for the coming downswing. Powerful and smooth. I am confused which concept is right ?
I love the thought ... By: thegonz9. on 11 Oct 11, 05:55:00 I love the thought of the left? shoulder leaving your chin behind.
@timc424 You pull ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 08 Oct 11, 12:01:30 @timc424 You pull hook for only 2 reasons. 1, your arms and club are passing your body rotation too soon,? or your body turn is stopping too soon and the arms and club have to pass. 2, you are flipping or hitting with your hands. This closes the face. Answer, use your hips? to pull your elbows back down in front as you keep turning. Look at the video here called the "Ross Move" it is really working great for my students.
Hello, I am trying ... By: timc424. on 07 Oct 11, 19:51:38 Hello, I am trying this and it does help...but i am also pull hooking. What i think is happening is that my arms are turning with my body to much(staying out front) and at impact I am coming slightly outside in with? my hip turn and forcing my hands to release. Please help.
@MMmm97vO Where you ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 25 Sep 11, 01:27:13 @MMmm97vO Where you finish would directly relate to the amount of speed generated in the turn. If you turn very fast and hard, the shoulders will actually pass the point your mentioned. One thing on a softer shot with less speed the shoulders still are pulled around by the body rotation to a complete finish, knees touching and totally up on the back toe. This would mean the hips had released? completely (good thing). If not, the arms will pass the body too soon and pull the shot.
@andytoy Well, I ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 25 Sep 11, 01:20:54 @andytoy Well, I was taught the same thing, but found that not shifting your weight and restricting the lower body creates much more? power and makes it very easy to hit the ball solid while turning through to the finish (not hitting with the hands). Knowing this and teaching thousands of lessons over the last 20 years, easily convinced me that this is a much more repeatable, athletic, consistent golf swing. You be your own judge ... Ross

@DUPLESSISGOLF ... By: Patchkaa33. on 06 Jun 11, 06:15:43 @DUPLESSISGOLF Tried? this stuff on the course today and hit some great shots with my 4 hybrid!! I've never hit it so sweet b4, I'm even hitting my mid irons better and getting some easy pars!! Will certainly be joining your membership this week!!
Great! I can also ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 05 Jun 11, 14:48:06 Great! I can also just capture your video if you're on YouTube or? Vimeo, then I will talk over your swing as I scroll it to different points in your swing. You will really learn a lot about your setup and where you might be losing it.. Remember, send 2 swings, front view and from behind looking down the target line... thanks, Ross
Awesome, I just? ... By: Patchkaa33. on 05 Jun 11, 14:28:48 Awesome, I just? went to your site, I will join your membershi this week and send you a video of me to take a look at!! Look forward to hearing from you!
@Patchkaa33 I do at ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 05 Jun 11, 14:10:15 @Patchkaa33 I do at my site... but, you? don't need a video... just put the ball out there... get your front foot and club head in line... then unwind as hard as you like!! If you start the downswing with your hips and keep turning, and (don't flip), you will kill the ball down the middle!... every time. It is almost too easy once your hands are out of the golf swing. This takes practice... Move Less ... Get Good!... Ross
@Patchkaa33 Strong ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 05 Jun 11, 14:03:46 @Patchkaa33 Strong grip only causes hooks when you flip or quit? turning. AND, you will have to flip when you quit turning... A grip that remains constant is the one you want!! When the hands stay out of the swing, the athletic movements come back... unwinding like throwing a ball... from ground up
@DUPLESSISGOLF Hmmm ... By: Patchkaa33. on 05 Jun 11, 14:00:46 @DUPLESSISGOLF Hmmm so you are saying ball is 4 inches in front of front toe when using driver??? I;ve been using a neutral grip and it seems to be working with the irons, I found using a strong grip? was causing a hook, but like you said it might be be not rotating! Do you have a video for setup of driver?

@Patchkaa33 ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 05 Jun 11, 13:37:46 @Patchkaa33 Stronger is easier to align shaft with the front arm. Now, setup for driver is key! Club head and front toe are in line 4" behind the ball. FORGET ABOUT THE BALL. This creates an ascending or upward angle of attack that hits the ball up and carries? farther and rolls. You keep TURNING as you move the ball. If the ball pulls or hooks, it is because you stopped turning too soon and let your arms and club passed your body. Keep turning and Keep Hands quiet during the entire swing.
@DUPLESSISGOLF H I ... By: Patchkaa33. on 05 Jun 11, 13:00:22 @DUPLESSISGOLF H I tried this stuff and had some great success when I got it right,? its new and I have the old habits. Just afew quick questions?? Do you use a strong or neutral grip?? Does this work for the woods and driver and do I need to adjust my set up when applying this swing to my woods and driver??
Thanks so much i am already seeing greater distance and power in my shots!!
@Patchkaa33 This is ... By: DUPLESSISGOLF. on 04 Jun 11, 13:09:16 @Patchkaa33 This is Absolutely a different swing, because shifting your? weight changes your center and there is NO BENEFIT, only inconsistency. The golf swing rotates around the front hip, why would you want to create a variable. Just keep your lower body anchored 60% weight on the front, wind your shoulders as the lower body restricts, then you are already in position to just fire your hips and turn as hard as you like. Shifting off the ball (takeaway) and flipping causes your fat shot.
@DUPLESSISGOLF Ah ... By: Patchkaa33. on 04 Jun 11, 06:15:08 @DUPLESSISGOLF Ah ok, so you saying? there is no need to weight shift, I always thought having weight on front foot would cause a fat shot, i guess this is a different swing?
@justjames1111 ... By: theciskokidd. on 14 May 11, 05:21:45 @justjames1111 Because the timing is very critical when your center? core "slides" off the center of the ball during the back swing. If you dont time the slide coming back to the ball just right, you will miss hit. Those guys you talk about had impeccable timing and dont forget they played golf every single day. The average amateur doesnt. This guy knows his stuff and has helped my sliding motion and fixed my inconsistencies. Just try it out and you will immediately notice the difference.
