Bio-mechanics are awesome. The guys that know the body that well are a real benefit to the game of golf. The stuff TPI, CHEK, and others are doing for the golfing body is super stuff!

AMM and K-Vest are giving us as instructors a completely different way to measure mechanics and I think that is awesome. We can now look at Zone #1 in a way that Mr. Kelley could never look at it and that is a real benefit.

I have measured the center of gravity (in video) for years. In fact the first time I started thinking about it is when Rob Noel gave me a lesson on hip slide/axis tilt 13 years ago. That was the first time I noticed that shifting the weight effected where I hit the ball on the face of the club.

Center of gravity is below the belly button from face on and as Don Donatucci (forgive me if I spelled it wrong) from rear view it is the booty crack. I know that center of mass is statically and dynamically are different. I also know that center of pressure (in the feet) is different as well. That being said, if one is measuring these three different aspects of weight shift they will all come to different conclusions.

Again I really like Hogan as a model for two reasons: One he was hit by a bus and then went on to play some of his best golf. Second because he got better and better and better over the years. That meant he was building better mechanics.

Really pretty neat stuff! Everyone really needs to just sit back, listen to Bob Marley and The Whailers (or something) and enjoy everything that can be learned and put into action for our golf swings.

Daryl- Thank you for the accolades but I really am just red neck......
