YODA, please don't let me steer Tim wrong... would you agree?

Power Angle Pro & Pure swing
Are these devices still around? Is anybody here using any of them?

Tom Tomasello
When viewing his videos in the gallery - is there anything to be warned about in his instruction? Is he using too much axis tilt for example?

I have just received Paul Runyan's : The short way to lower scoring.
I quess I'll read the whole book - but it was the putting technique I'm most interested to study.
Still OTT I'm afraid:

Air,
It may help you to get a better feel for things if you were to move your hitting mat a couple of feet over to your left, as you face the house, and then continue to hit the ball at the same place on the wall as you are doing in these videos.
Right now you are steering (in an attempt to miss your windows?) - I think.
Just a thought. Worth what you paid for it.

Thx. I don't think I have hit the window at all (maybe once?). Plastic ball. No danger. But sure, steering is not an unknown factor. Back to old sins, I guess.

It's hard to see without slow motion, but it seems that the first move down from the top your right shoulder goes out. Have you axis tilt moving the hip first? Just my 2 cents.

That's what I saw as well - right shoulder out: OTT. Disappointing to see - not much different than before - except the finish (more for show?) It didn't feel as bad as it looked..

I would suggest perfoming many acquired motion:
adjusted address;
preturn hip;
backstroke with right forearm parallel to the floor, limited wristcock;
first move down: hip slide;
then #4;
see if there is difference on the right shoulder, it should drop down slightly instead of going out.
