With the driver I tend to stand taller and more up right because its a longer club. All my misses are left with my woods, Im wondering if this is because I dont have enough knees flex at address, which cause's an over the top move. It's something I dont work on alot and tend to forget about because im working on stance, posture and grip. How much is too much knee flex and whats too little?

Too little is about mine, in a video, you can barely tell me knees are flexed.

Interesting question, I tend to have too much flex in my knees. I've heard so many theories.....knee caps should be flexed so that they are over your toes (to me, that seems like a lot of flex, unless your entire body is leaning way forward).

Curious to see what people say.

Mine is such that my knees are bent, but I can't feel any strain, nice and comfortable. I used to bend them so much that I could really feel strain in my knees and upper legs, which was probably too much.

      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.
