Been ages since I last posted but I've been busy working on my impact position.

I took someones advice on here (I think it was JetFan, (thanks JetFan)) and looked up Evolvr. With the help from Stephan at Evolvr we have been trying to get my hands further foward at impact and consequently a flatter left wrist.

I have to say this has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to work on in my swing. I think it's been 3 months of work now but I am really starting to see some benefit in my ball striking.

Here is my latest video from a face on angle.

It is easier to see the improvements in these comparison pictures.

As you can see some definite improvements.

The only thing is, I want to improve this even more. Ideally I want my hands to be more infront of my right thigh in the first picture and more in front of my left thigh in the second pictue.

I don't know if any of you guys have ever had problems working on this position and if so what drills, swing thoughts you used to achieve a better impact position?

I would love to hear any advice/feedback.

Thanks.

Dan.

Nice swing...your p6 looks like you are strangling a chicken...but I like it You have some strong hands..I definitely won't meet you in a dark alley

Like working on the swing,,score means nothing to me. Might just go to the range and give up playing... ( might happen)

Thanks the compliments, I think lol. My hands are a sore point (literally) at the moment. I've been suffering from 'trigger finger' tendonitis in both of them. I'm supposed to rest them but sod that wen there is golf to play :-)

Been doing some great work with Stephan from Evolvr.

We're working on trying to reduce the rate of closure and extension in my downswing and follow through as I tend to flip the club over too quickly casuing all manner of horrors.

This is my latest video, it's a drill I've been working on to slow down the 'roc' and increase my extension after impact.

Really getting the hang of the drill just need to put it into practice with my full swing now. I have already noticed an improvement in my shot dispersion, none of those nasty snap hooks for a while now :-) .

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
