Been watching this thing with a buddy of mine who ordered it a while back; its really interesting. I was highly skeptical when I saw the promo on the Golf Channel; but after applying the new teachings to the range, i'm baffled.
So earlier today I went out to the range to test out the driver.
AJ says in the video that i have to picture the ball as a huge nail in a way and that I have to hammer it into the wall; with this mentality i focused mainly on that; so I just swung, no thought to whether it was Inside-out or outside-in.
One thing that I did remember though,which I find is essential in the whole video is the wrist and hand position during the whole swing: make sure the palm of my right hand is always facing me,so as if you were holding your remote the buttons are always facing you. Honestly it felt weird at first, but as soon as I started my downsing and "nailed" that ball in ( with hand-eye coordination being a huge factor of course ) the ball just rocketed off my club and went straight for about 280.
So after doing that consistently for about the whole hour I was there; i've begun to question all these methods of swings...AJ says its not the swing, but its the tool (club ) and the ball and the hand eye coordination of those two. Another thing that I found interesting, was that AJ didn't use any sort of weight transfer and could still bomb these shots.
Maybe he's just that good and maybe I got lucky today;but I thought i'd share and was wondering if any of you guys have tried this method out; I just dont believe it yet that it might be this easy to do,after all the countless articles/videos/golf tourneys I've reviewed over and over. But today it worked for me,we'll see about tomorrow.
peace

oh btw, i'm not a big guy either to hit 280; dunno if that would be a factor. I'm about 5'7 155lbs, in shape cause I played college soccer, brand new at this game-self taught myself while I was in Thailand for two months.
