In the 1990âs, Andy Plummer and Mike Bennett were golf professionals pursuing the dream of playing on the PGA Tour. Unsatisfied with the best conventional instruction available, they tirelessly researched and analyzed the swings of the best ball-strikers in the history of the sport to determine what their swings all had in common. Beginning with a clean slate, Mike and Andy set out to define the golf swing according to what historyâs greats did. A groundbreaking article in Golf Digest in 2007 dubbed Mike and Andyâs teachings Stack & Tilt and the name stuck. In simplest terms, the principles of Stack & Tilt are: weight forward, shoulder down, hands in, arms straight, and tuck hips. Andy and Mike have now coached 12 different players who have won on the PGA Tour as well as numerous players who have won on the Nationwide Tour and in professional golf tournaments around the world. In addition to their work with tour players, Mike and Andy offer clinics worldwide, operate Stack & Tilt Academies in West Palm Beach, Fla. and Mount Holly, N.J., and license authorized instructors all over the world.
