Funny game we are obsessed with. I often wonder, there has to be like 5 basic moves that are common in every golf swing. No matter how you get there, all these moves/positions are essential in hitting good shots. I get emails from Golf Digest for general golf info. The one I got this morning was interesting in that it was, I'd say, exactly the teachings of @Tom Saguto . Not that I needed verification, but it is fascinating how many teachings and approaches there are to obtain the same objective.

Great stuff, @Gerry_Lager!! I suppose it may be somewhat apparent to the keen eye that Steve Sieracki is a S&T kinda guy. And if you pull up his bio it will probably make mention of his work with Bennett and Plummer. But no matter, Steve's analyses are spot on regardless of whether or not he's S&T, because they're just truths. For example - and as I've likely stated here before - if we were to ask how many PGA Tour major championship winners tilted, turned, and extended in the golf swing, the answer would be all of them!
Stack and Tilt is a golf swing system based on data from the best golf ball strikers. For this reason, someone can be embracing key Stack and Tilt elements without being aware of it. This is because there are basic requirements that must be met to hit a golf ball consistently on the center of the clubface. There are also components necessary to add power to the golf swing without sacrificing accuracy. Stack and Tilt determined, based on a study of the best golfers of all time, that they all had 3 things in common (the 3 main golf fundamentals): 1. Hit the ground in the same spot every time (consistent crispy contact) 2. Have enough power to play the golf course well (power) 3. Be able to have a predictable curve (accuracy). A player MUST be able to do those 3 things to be good at golf, and Stack and Tilt provides a road map for accomplishing these fundamentals incredibly well! And as far as tour players using 100% of it, 99% of it, 97% of it, or 78% of it, it doesn't really matter because they're ALL doing it to some extent. Those 3 fundamentals never change!
Thanks for sharing!
