    I’ve almost been annoyed when Titleist post videos with Greg Rose using 3D, pressure plates, etc. Great stuff at TPI but mere mortals can’t book time there on that side of the building.

    Coming off a significant shoulder injury, my swing was so bad, I sought time with a local pro ( who does have several TPI certifications) at my nearby municipal I was expecting alignment sticks and a tripod to record swings and break the swing down frame by frame. Instead he pulls out his Foresight to get some baseline numbers. After discussion of that and where I need some changes, he pulls out the force plates. I hit a few and we review the charts. There are other things going on, but then he wants me to widen my stance. This improves my lateral motion and markedly improves head speed (by 5 mph) and launch. The graphs are getting force changes that look more like a golfer.

    The path to fully improve is still a long road, but I can now think I can have options other than the forward tees. Switching between video and torque graphs really resonated.

    Now I can go back and enjoy those recent videos from Dr. Rose.
