[magnoficent]

hey shawn, love your golf tips, just wondering what your thoughts are on the passive method of teaching golf...

[muche2000]

i have one more question shawn! how do you think about gary edwin (right side swaing)

[muche2000]

shawn ! if you watch michael jacobs (youtuve)from nygolfworld  he explain about straight ,angle,circle deliverly.you can check it out there. thank you

[clemshaw]

Hey Danny;

I checked out some of his stuff...no comments there sorry...to answer your question though is that all swings from the driver to the putter are on an arc; The best video for this is my "Golf Pro Lesson swing plane"; Shawn

[muche2000]

can you explain about straight deliverly,angle deliverly,circle deliverly

and which tour player using a straight deliverly. thank you always shawn!

from danny

[clemshaw]

For this question in regards to putting; I will refer you to my "Golf Pro Lesson Tuning the putting stroke" video and for the full swing; the best vid for that would be "Golf Pro Lesson Swing Plane"; For the full swing, I don't know any straight delivery...for the putting stroke on short putts, ask any tour player working with Dave Pelz...:)

Otherwise I would need to make another video...:)

Thanks for the question; Shawn

Hi Shawn, So you are running out of stuff and going to the rules :), I think that a big factor in steping om the putting line is that you also get an penalty for doing it :)

[clemshaw]

Not really; I just think that after playing with the average guy again that there is a serious lack of knowledge that has to be addressed for basic rules...I have a whole slew of videos coming out soon!

Hi Shawn. You should do a session on rules & etiquette...much needed. BUT...check out Rule 20-1....clearly states the marker must be "immediately behind " the ball. Now then ..when are you coming to Britain?..."Toss and fall" has cured 3 years of yipping chipping....and when I get it right the long stuff is unbelievable....just need some confirmation about what is right. Top man...come over, there are some great courses here!! Richard

[clemshaw]

Thanks Richard, I will bring this to the attention of my rules Guru in the RCGA who stated this to me...And I do want to make it over the pond one day; hope to make it soon! My number 1 man, Paul Davies will be in Scotland this September though! Send me an email and let me know what it is you need confirmation on...Shawn

[JalalHaddad]

if anyone stepped on my line, and the footsteps are quite clear, is there any way to quick repair it? just tap a bit?

[clemshaw]

You cannot tap down spike marks or foot prints I a afraid...just ball marks...Thanks for the question! Shawn

[quixoticfox]

Hey Shawn,

Whats the proper etiquette with respect to lining up a mark on the golf ball? I like to use the aim line on the ball, but I always worry that I'm breaking the rules when i rotate the ball.

[oTITLE1STo]

Keep your marker behind the ball and rotate to your liking, then remove your marker

[quixoticfox]

whew. Good to know i've been doing it right. Thanks oTitle1sto.

[clemshaw]

Just noticed you answered...Thanks Man!

Shawn

[clemshaw]

Not at all!! As long as the ball is clearly marked with a coin "immediately behind" the ball like Richard said you can aim the ball the way you like!

Shawn

[pmaguiar]

It doesn't matter whether you're a beginner or a low handicap, you'll always have to think about respecting fellow golfers and contributing for their enjoyment of the game.

Great vid, as always!! Thanks Shawn!

[tarwaterjr]

I wish beginners had to take a course on etiquette before playing. Even at higher end courses, I've now noticed un-raked bunkers & pock mark greens from neglectful golfers. So frustrating.

[ArmpitNoises]

Just started this year. Great video. Repairing the ball mark in particular. I was doing it the other way around.

[itubeutude]

worthwhile vid for the beginners.
