How is Yoda going to to "knock our collective socks off" with the much anticipated instructional video, if he keeps deliving such great instructional videos in advance of his own videos release? When Yoda says he is with us all the way, perhaps some newcomers might be sceptical, but he absolutely delivers on his promise. The clear purpose of this forum is to raise the stature of the golfing machine in the golfing world by helping individuals improve their games.

There were two standout gems for me in the golfgnome video that most definitely increased my knowledge of the swing that I want to own.

1) I knew a lateral hip move was required to start the downswing, but the Old Waverly Vijay move that Jeff learned was a rare instances where sound was just as important as picture in helping to deliver an important golf message. Its hard to spell the golfgnome's grunt, but it was most beneficial in focusing my attention on the need to execute the hip move far more crisply than what I had previously believed.

2) The downswing waggle provided by Yoda illustrated new ground for me. I had previously thought that driving my elbow down to my side was the initial part of my arm's drive to lowpoint. I didn't understand that the elbow gets reattached to my right side as the secondary result of the hip advance, and it was a body move, not an arm move Further, the waggle you demonstrated illustrates the valuable role of the moving right shoulder downplane to generate additional power for a hitter by increasing the distance through the ball that he can hit.

Finding these two ideas in just one 5 minute segment of the video was quite exceptional. I also love the idea Jeff shared that the golfer's target is driving through the ball to lowpoint and beyond and the balls target is the flage on the green. Overall, a truly superior effort.
