All looks good and good work Rich. Me and Dana are currently working on putting together some golf schools which include aimpoint and Edel putter fitting among other things.

Jeremy played in the Sony Open a few years ago and has had a rough last 2 years but this year he is playing very well with a win and good number of high finishes, top 15 on Golden State Tour money list so far. Brian is obviously playing well being top 9 on the Nationwide Money list and watch out for him at next week's event.

Another one of my students. Got screwed by weather at the Canadian Q school this year, played on Canadian Tour last year and will play full schedule on Tarheel Tour this year.

Very nice. Is his swing S&T?
Do you teach all students S&T for the most part, or not always?

There are certainly pieces I like to see in most swings, but I also believe in just like people are individuals, swings are individualistic. I don't teach a model if that's what you're asking. I teach off of ball flight and what piece the student needs to improve their ball flight immediately. Once they own that piece and/or want to see something different ball flight wise we add another piece. The only thing I really try to get everyone to understand and all students to do is keep a stable head/ upper COG (whether they set up centered or more behind it) and understand the ball flight laws/ path to face relationships.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was curious about.

Looking at Rhett how come his head moves so far away from the target on the downswing, with a lot of axis tilt, is he predisposed to hook misses?

His miss is actually a high fade and tends to get too CP. Hitting it very well right now though and should have made it through Canadian Q school and would have if they played 4 rounds more than likely.
