I am in the process of working on more of a S and T or Foleyish swing with more shoulder tilt, more weight on front foot, etc.  I have only been able to work on it inside since theres more than a foot of snow outside, but i think it will work out well.

Is there any reason with this new move that my left (front) upper hip/lower side area seems to hurt?  There is a lot of pressure in that area during the swing so i think i might be doing something a little off.

Now once the snow clears i plan to get a new video up, but does this sound familiar to anyone?  what are some things with a S and T ish swing that can cause this?

You could try opening your feet up if you haven't already. However, I haven't really run into this problem, so I can't be of much help.

There shouldn't be any difference in hip stress with S&T versus any other swing.  Sounds like it's your hip flexor or outer ab area from your description.  Have you been shoveling a lot of snow lately (I have)?  You may have stressed the area during other activity and feel it when you swing.  Try ice and stretching to relieve the pain.

I have this pain not from SnT, but well before because one leg is a tad shorter than another and I aggravated it with long distance running, tennis, golf, etc..  But not during playing, after and only if I over do it in terms of activity.

The soreness is from the side of my back, i think it might be called the back joint and then around and down towards the hip.  I think it has something to do with doing something incorrectly while bending over more and turning with my weight forward.  i guess ill figure it out though.  i just wanted to see if it was anything common when making this type of adjustment.  thanks

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.
