Hey guys and gals,
Thought I'd keep you updated on the website as I receive a lot of emails asking the same thing...
Yes, there are new chapters in the works. The next will be exploring how Hinge Action affects ball behaviour.
After this I'll start working on your number one request... Hitting and Swinging.
In the meantime, any questions, ask away either here or via the website.
I'd also like to hear some requests. Anything from the Yellow Book that doesn't make sense and you'd like me to explain?
Until then, take care and happy g.o.l.f.ing!
The Swing Engineer

Morning all! I'd received a few emails from folks to say The Swing Engineer website had some issues - long loading times, missing links, misaligned text et cetera. This was because I'd made it using iWeb, Apple's erratic "drag and drop" website creator. I've since recreated the website from scratch using Dreamweaver, so all of those issues should be fixed and you may find yourself confronted with a semi-professional looking website.... maybe  . I've uploaded the latest version this morning, so visit www.TheSwingEngineer.com and get in touch if there are any further problems with the site. *** As for new chapters, I've finished the latest on Hinge Action / Ball Behaviour. Before I post that however, I'll be making one more chapter on the swing plane and it's characteristics - it'll make the Hinge Action one easier for you to understand and me to explain. As always, any questions / comments / suggestions, feel free to get in touch either here or via the website. All the best, The Swing Engineer |

Hi Joec! please, explain the right arm swing. I'm just finishing a couple of chapters as per above - once they're published I'll get cracking on my magnum opus, Hitting & Swinging. Then all will be revealed and we can have a good old chin-wag about it. Apologies for the delay - the website is something I do in my spare time so I'm not as quick as I'd like to be! Thank you for your patience  The Swing Engineer |

Thank you for your patience The Swing Engineer Would like to ask you about wrist angle. Is it really wrist angle or is there something we haven't seen during all these years and can there be some hidden muscular action behind that "thing" So something hidden that can't be seen from videos or graphs but has pretty high influence to the club head speed.. |

Hi Teeace, how's it going? Would like to ask you about wrist angle. Is it really wrist angle or is there something we haven't seen during all these years and can there be some hidden muscular action behind that "thing" So something hidden that can't be seen from videos or graphs but has pretty high influence to the club head speed.. You're going to have to be a lot more specific... Which wrist? What angle? At what point during the swing? What muscles? What "thing"?! I don't think there's anything hidden from us when observing the golf swing. You're hitting a ball with a stick - there's no magic involved. You want to increase your clubhead speed? Swing your hands quicker. You want to swing your hands quicker? Turn your shoulders faster. I think you'll find chapters 2-M-1 to 4 of TGM useful if generating clubhead power is something you're interested in. "The greatest hazard... ...is the belief that "effort" is "power". No amount of effort will produce more than a player's maximum turning speed. Regardless of effort, you simply cannot push anything faster than you can run."If you want to learn more about the biomechanics of golf, I highly recommend Dr Rosman's "BIA" books. www.biagolf.com/ |

Whatabout make difference between wrist angle and arm-shad angle. What happens then? |
