I think the Golf Digest article was put together quite well. The photos and the instructional content gets high marks. There is a problem however with the two photos where the instructor shows a tilt to the left without the club or the ball. He is simply leaning to his left, stretching the right side of his body. Readers may get the impression that this is how they need to start the back-swing. One of the bloggers pointed out that the tilt should be towards the ball and not to the the players left. Maybe this needs to be clarified with the instructor holding club adressing the ball.

I started to use the stack and tilt method a couple of weeks ago and shot my best score in a long time, 74 at Blue Ash from the black tees. For me it simplified many swing flaws I might have had. My ball striking was much improved and gained accuracy with all my clubs. With any swing changes time will tell if I can stay consistent but for right now it is amazing. Scores are averaging 4 shots better than before with more solid contact. It is without question a simplified way to swing. Would teach it to beginners as the first method.

I love stack & tilt for Irons, not for driver! Pushes to right field with Driver.

I am an 8 index an been working with a pro for the past two summers with no improvement. Very frustrating.
Weight transfer and follow through have always been my issues.
This swing eliminates the first and makes the second a natural movement.
I played the last three round of this year using the stack and tilt with no practice, off of my club's back tees and in windy conditions.
I have a bad left hip and have lost overall mobility.
My Chiro has no problem with the swing and he services Canadian Olympians.
To reiterate. I shot my handicap using it with no practice. just an index card summarizing the swing in my pocket.
I'm convinced.
At my winter golf schools all the crusty old pros look at me like I have three eyes but I have caught them trying it.
I hit my drives well and my short game works very well with this.
Its much simpler. The article in Golf Digest is all you really need and it makes sense.
Just try it.
The only hint is to really watch your tempo as it tends to speed the swing up.

I have been teaching for over 25 years. The stack and tilt has been around for a while just not known as such. The biggest problem for most golfers is getting the weight to the right side on the down swing. I have been uing almost the same type of swing for years and teach it also. I just got some more info on why by the Golf Digest article.If you look at most of the tour guys you will see the right leg stiff at the top of the swing.. Hogan, Couples, Demarco etc;;;
