Stack and Tilt

Is there a reason why? I'm a 4 right now with more of a 2 plane, but my ball striking is up and down, so I'm looking to move to something to hopefully gain some consistency.

Fair enough. Have you tried it?

My short game bails me out every round it seems like. I'm a scramblers and very streaky. I don't even know what to call Tiger's swing, but Adam does have the best swing in golf and Donald's looks fantastic as well. I may toy with it to see if I improve but if not I'll just scratch it.

I will try to make this short and sweet...

Check out the Tour, and see how many guys are using the "Stack and Tilt"...Then see how many guys have won using the stack and tilt. After that, divide the number of wins buy 5 years (with about 45 tournaments per year)...That should give you a pretty clear representation of how effective it is!

Charlie Wii jumps to mind as someone that used it went down the shitter

Charlie Wi is basically their perfect model and is still with them. They still have a solid stable of guys. S&T is a marketing thing. The swing isn't really like the books. Most of the tour uses the idea in some way now. It's about being centered, and not involving a big weight shift. Shoulder down, weight to inner thigh. Justin Rose won last week with it

I am a 10 handicap I keep very detailed records of my game. I tried the stack and tilt for a season, and I went back to my old ways.
My game:
Long hitter pw is 145, 285 on a launch monitor indoors with driver.
My weakest part of my game by far is short game, I will average 13 gir in a round and still play to my 10 handicap, lot of three putting. And at least one chuncked chip a round.

I am also a high ball hitter, with enough spin to stop a 6 iron dead on a clean shot.

My stack and tilt trial:
First thing is spin rate increased, ball flight decreased.
I also through my records I noticed that my misses were not as bad as before, but as an overall percentage my fairways and gir's went down.
I switched from it because I like being a high
ball hitter, and I enjoy 3 great shots a round over 5 average shots. Also the crazy spin was killing me.
I was not trying to get my handicap down to a from a 4 to a 2. if I wanted to do that, I
would have taken some short game and putting lessons.

Btw, I call my game a scramble dream, because it is very effective in scrambles
and we will always use one of my balls on long par 4's and a par 5.

this method is like the belly putter. its a cry for HELP!

Not many guys have gotten better by going to this. Charlie Wi may be the only one who as improved, but he is not a serious contender very often.

Baddley wasted a few years on this method and then ditched it, jsut now coming back to form

Screw the stack and tilt. Find the slot instead. The Slot Swing by Jim McClean. It's a 2 plane principal. I play to a 4 HCP and was a 9 Playing a 1 plane swing before switching to the Slot Swing. To me I can feel the plane better, and am able to feel the club flatten in the downswing attacking the ball. If you record golf and slow motion most pro swings, they are some form of a 2 plane Slot Swing with the club being on a more vertical plane at the top of the backswing.

I agree with the previous poster. If you want to get better, increase your ability on the short game and putting.
