I saw such an improvement in my golf swing by being a free member that I wanted the full benefits of a premium membership. I'm a notorious range rat who has learned more with my premium membership than I have from thousands of dollars of lessons and training aids over the past 20 years.

Excellent, thorough, detailed and comprehensive free information had me wanting more and the price/value was excellent.

The swing instruction offered by the free version made it apparent that this is the right way to perfect the golf swing (or get as close as possible). Just a few videos on how to start the backswing and initiate the downswing made a huge difference in my consistency.

After watching the free videos, I quickly realized the golf action Chuck is teaching is based on common sense fundamentals that most tour professionals use today. I also realized Chuck had a talent for explaining the golf swing in a way that makes sense.

A crucial and common mistake at setup that dramatically impacts the top of the backswing position is not having the proper axis tilt at address.
While I did a video before on setting up with the proper axis tilt and how to determine that, many golfers still arrive at poor positions at the top by ignoring this simple setup key.
In this video, I show you what commonly happens at the top of the swing when you don't have the proper amount of tilt.
In the image above, you can see what happens to a golfer when they don't have the proper axis tilt at address on the left.
On the right side, you can see that you can almost draw a straight line up the left leg and back at a diagonal angle. That shows that the golfer had enough tilt at address (slightly exaggerated here to demonstrate the difference between the two). This is critical for two reasons:
- to get properly loaded up onto the right side and behind the ball for power, and
- to shallow out the swing plane coming into impact.
Below, we can compare the look of Tiger Woods from around the year 2005 or so with Aaron Baddeley when he was with Stack and Tilt.
