Ladies and gentlemen, I have received my copy of Alignment Golf and its is educating my hands to better golf already. However, I have stumbled across another problem. After viewing and practicing the extensors action lessons and drills, I now cannot hit the ball fat for bunker shots. I've tried using my aiming point to direct my hands a few inches behind the ball but I still strike the ball crisp. I also tried the dollar-bill drill but that does not seem to help either. Don't get me wrong, I love the crisp clean ball contact but I need to be able to play out of green side bunkers too.
I received my copy of Alignment Golf in just a few days and popped in the first DVD and I must admit it is some of the best video on TGM ever done.
Lynn is a master at getting the point across and does not miss a beat. It is like a Johnny Cash song driving the beat down home. There is a bit of comedy as well. All I can say is watch it many times and you will have enough knowledge to work on a stroke pattern and understand TGM book as well.
Swinging and hitting are also explained in the DVD’s for many that are still trying to understand the differences. Alignment Golf is great and every golfer should have a copy along with the yellow book. Well Done!!!

Thanks, John. I appreciate your review and comments!
I would also like to say that on the Alignment Golf DVD’s, the importance Lynn puts on the down swing waggle and the amount of up the club head moves in the back swing. These were very important points made of many that are missing in action with most weekend and amateur golfers. So watch it and learn and you will get to the next level
New to this forum but have read great feedback on these tapes on other forums.
My only concern is I am quite new to golf (only been playing for a year and on a 22 handicap) and was wondering if these are tailored for the more advanced golfer and the newbie would be left scratching their head over some of the TGM terminology?
One area that I do need to work on is getting better compression and cleaner/crisper contact so if there is a chapter on this that would be a start.

I have a "tip" for you on this one given to me by a helluva bunker player Tony Johnstone. He advised me not to grip down the shaft too much. Some times people grip down so much that there low point is actually above the sand or at least not deep enough...hence ball first contact!
I'll give it a try Okie. One thing I like to add to this is, Mr. Blake and his team are right on the money when they advised to work on the Basic and Acquired Motions--there's really Magic in the Right Forearm.
