I've taken plenty of lessons from Ben, and not once heard the term snap release.  We've focused most of our time together on powering the golf swing with the feet and core. In fact, he signs off his emails with "sustain the lag" which sounds like the opposite. Not only that, but Ben is perhaps the nicest man on the planet ... He gives of himself constantly. Anyone who would speak ill of him has a hidden agenda, and should take that "rubbish" back to Europe.

Thank you for your post. I have ordered many vidos from M. Doyle and on each of them he took time to write a friendly and personnal message. I am missing the opportunity to meet him personnaly.

bmac thank you for your post. Even if he is not yet 86 M. Doyle is a geat teacher, and as you said a very nice man. Most of all, he is always respectful, and take a great care of others advices. Something that is missing to some contributors to this page TY

Thta's only something like a half swing and most high handicappers would learn a lot by playing just like this and not trying to do full, huge backswings. The lag, together with the fett action wound have this ball going something over 200 yards with a 3 wood. Its the lag, feet and body rotation doing all the work.

holy crap. he'd give sergio a run for his money on lag. that's amazing.

Check out his impact position!! The forward press is unbelieveable! That ball was compressed with the maximum amount of force! God Bless you Ben! Please let me borrow your swing for oh....about two decades!lol

Mr. Doyle is obviously a kind gentle soul. God bless him, his legacy & what he means to the game of golf. God Bless.

@ssclarke44 Why are you anti Europe? Do only people from Europe dislike Ben Doyle? Im from Europe and I don't have an iddue with him!

I dont know how old this guy is; but he has all the elements of a good swing. Rythym, tempo, timing; and just look at that divot and listen to the sound. I would say that he hits it straight consistantly!!

There's a reason they say "those who can't do teach"

@philouvet ... ben has cut his schedule back quite a bit, but he still teaches occasionally. i'll be visiting him in March. if you can make it out to the carmel area, his lessons are a great value. much less than most instructors of his caliber, plus he gives you a DVD recording of your whole lesson to take with you....
