    GSfMO#387 June 4, 2013: John “Lag” Erickson returns for a Members Only episode to break down his teaching method of improving your swing from impact backwards.

John feels very strongly that it all started going downhill when they allowed metal clubs instead of woods. We get into a deeper conversation about why he thinks everyone would play much better if they knew how to hit with persimmon woods. Strategy is also a very important topic when we discuss how to play better and lower your scores. Once you learn how to hit straight and become a better ball striker, then strategy, or course management, becomes critically important.  For more, check out AdvancedBallStriking.com.

    Today’s Equipment Could Be Hurting Your Game with John "Lag" Erickson

    GS#386 May 28, 2013: From Touring to Teaching, John “Lag” Erickson has seen golf from all sides and is concerned that the art of ball striking is disappearing. He contends that today’s highly advanced research to make clubs more forgiving is ruining the ability to become a great ball striker.  Even the greatest players of today struggle when handed persimmon clubs, nor could they compete with the pre-metal club pros. It’s not just touch, but the sound of hitting balls has changed for the worst. Are you more interested in scoring than ball striking? Jon thinks you may be missing the point. He also says that the USGA and R&A hate golf.  For more, check out John’s website at AdvancedBallStriking.com. Jon returns for Part 2 of our conversation in a Members Only episode to discuss his theories of instruction that teaches the swing from impact backwards. John referred to the Shell’s Wonderful World of Golf classic matchup of Hogan vs. Snead.
