    Flying wedge

    I was wondering if you could explain the 'flying wedge' and how to properly incorporate it into the golf swing. I was told in a lesson that my occasional fat shot was caused by a breakdown of my wrist angle. I'm having trouble picturing how it should work. Should the same wrist angle be...

    Footwork

    I've seen Peter Kostis examine Tiger's swing and he's said on numerous occasions that great ball strikers tend to keep their right heel low or planted at impact. I realized that this is not something I do. My last practice session I concentrated on maintaining my balance and keeping my right...

    Wrist angle at impact

    Had a lesson the other day and the pro identified a significant flaw in my swing that I think has really caused me to be inconsistent.

    Logo golf balls

    Does anyone know of a site that sells golf balls with country club logos on them? I was never one to collect logo balls but someone just gave me a nice display cabinet and I'd like to only put balls from courses that I've played. Otherwise it's going to be a while before I fillup that cabinet.

    Wrist breaking during putting

    I just watched the 1971 Open Championship (Trevino won) and noticed how just about all the players had some kind of wrist break during putting. Some putted with only wrist break(no arm swing). Trevino, Player, Nicklaus, Jacklin, etc. These guys were making eagles and birdies over and over...

    What to do in the winter.

    I'd like to kick off this forum with a question about what others do to try to stay in form over the winter. Unfortunately, I'm in the NE and we just had our first snow fall (way early). Any indoor drills? Backyard drills? Equipment? Thanks.
