To say the very least, we've been EXTREMELY busy on this side working on a ton of new things that you're going to find very exciting. 

First off, the RST Level 1 Instructor Certification Manual will likely go to print this week and be ready for pre-order later this week as well. Full details of that will come soon, but for now know that this book (135 pages at the moment) will be the bible for understanding the RST fundamentals at the basic level. If you are an instructor, it's a must have, if you are a golf swing enthusiast, you will find it to be your go to reference. The manual came out of the increasing demand and emails we receive for golfers like you looking for instructors in your area who can teach the RST. As an instructor, once you pass the exam, you will be able to be listed on RotarySwing.com as a certified instructor, exposing you to millions of golfers looking for RST instruction each year. 

On the forefront of research, we are nearing the beginning of the University of Colorado research project that will be testing our theories on the learning process and mechanics of the swing. If you are interested in participating in the project, please contact josh@rotaryswing.com for more details.

Next, we have teamed up with Boston Celtics orthopedic surgeon Dr. Brian McKeon, developer of the Anchor as well as a new training aid that will be introduced next week like you've NEVER seen before. Think bio-feedback device for less than $100. We showed it to the participants of the clinic last week and they all loved it, you will to. In part of our on-going research for the RST, we're working on putting together a pretty neat research project involving a a former Boston Bruins hockey player who suffered a damage to a nerve that controls scapular function. At 6'3" tall and strong as an ox, he can only hit the golf ball 180 yards. Doing research on cadavers (any volunteers in the name of science?) and with our test subject, we will demonstrate just how vital the proper positioning and movement of the scapula really is and will be posting video on it - including the cadaver dissection - not for the weak of stomach...

That's it for now, expect a new video this week with some fascinating data from a live X-ray showing the importance of spinal posture and a training aid that helps correct posture and protect you from injury.

Nope, because on top of that I'm still having to shoot pics for the book, which is what I did all afternoon today! Here's my driver at impact:

Pretty sweet and efficient, as expected.  

Speaking of efficient, I saw a short clip with Davis Love III in a swing seminar setting with someone from Titleist commenting to the live audience that it looks like he isn't putting any effort into his swing  even though he swings the driver at around 118-120 mph because his movements are so efficient. 

What is your most recent driver swing speed with the efficient movements of RST engrained?

Ground-breaking stuff Chuck!
Radiology is the bomb.......but I'm biased being a Radiologist!
The cadaver session will be a real eye-opener for some people.
 
Keep up the great work mate!
