Couldn't watch tonite. What are they discussing and showing?
The pendulum or tempo tip that Martin Hall was teaching on this show, is one of the best tips I have ever used for pitch shots. I count one - two in my head with a smooth tempo and the shots around the green are much more consistant without chunking/skulling the ball. It's when I leave that tempo in the truck is when the rough edge comes out on those pitch shots.....

I liked a lot of the stuff he had to say. Lots of good tips. I just didn't like the fact that at the end of certain points he would eat his words or they would just be too hard to comprehend and I'd have to rewind it and jack up the volume just to hear it clearly. Maybe it's the accent.
And this was a good show for me , as I am the black hole hitter !!!! So his instruction will be tried when the weather turns for the better !!!
I liked the first show and I really liked him as an instructor. Breed was there just for the first show and will not be there again, which is fine I get the idea. He seemed very relaxed and I will definatly be watching this show every week as I do "the golf fix". I think the fact they seem polar opposites is good for the golf channel, and hopefully this becomes a one hour show like the fix because I agree with the person that said they tried to cover too much in a half hour. Good first show.
I'm Watching it now , I rather like his insight on the swing . Lots of knowledge I think will be of help !
But I Hope Michael breed is not on every show !
I actually like Michael Breed's show. I am not so sure about this one, especially since I found a lot of advice he gave as being contradictory to what Breed says on his show.
Driver distance. Breed says lag and turn. Hall says point of impact, and not the traditional sweet spot, the center of the clubface.
Don't hold spine angle steady? Really?
Short game. Don't accelerate through impact? Yes, the tempo advice is good, but that shouldn't be coupled with telling people not to accelerate through impact.
Fix slice by wiping. This may work, but I think it may also lead to early release. Same for the advice on hitting up on the ball. But... I am going to try these out at the range today.
Finally, the fix for missing short putts is to take the practice putt from behind the ball? That begs credibility.
I thought it was funny when Hall said that maintaining your spine angle was rubbish. Did you see the look on Breed's face? He is all about maintaining the spine angle so I thought that was a bit odd when he didn't counter it......but it is Hall's show......supposedly.
