Oh with the ball. I thought you meant with his club or something.

There's no shot I'd trust myself moving the mat that far back at that range lol. I know you did it for the video though. Even though I'm sure it's totally fine with a mid iron. I've had buddies hit the ceiling there with a wedge when the mats are in their normal spot let alone moved that far back. 

Oh yeah, I know exactly what you mean. Tons of people have hit the ceiling. I'm sure you've seen there are actually holes. 🤣

Here I am hitting a P-wedge. If you look closely at the top of the frame you can see some of the holes that folks have made. I will say most of those are created by folks hitting the crown of their drivers or fairway woods. 

This is my stock P-wedge shot. 

Here's the caddie-view on my stock P-wedge shot. @klineka Even my stock P-wedge misses the ceiling with the mat pulled back for filming. SW .... would be a different story. 🤣

Okay, this video came out a little wonky. 
It was early this morning, overcast, so the light was kinda bad. It was also real darn cold. I posting this as a "Here's where I am" kind of thing. Not where I plan to end up. 

 

Here's the down the line view... same thing as above. This is where I am, not where I want to be.

Let's not let the pelvis go toward the ball so much. Should still feel like it's pushing in the direction of the yellow arrow, not the red.

Okay, so a lot has improved. But I see hints of old issues creeping in. 
I'm working on the timing and weight shifts right now. 

These videos are mostly for me as a reference. 

As always this is just a simple stock 6 iron.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
    • I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
