I am a police officer in a city south of Boston, 6 years so far. I work the midnight shift to give myself more time for golfing, although it doesn’t always work out as planned haha.

I am an Engineering/Business leader. I have worked in Automotive Interiors for 30+ years designing, manufacturing, and running divisions. I started, grew, and sold a custom software development company. I am currently in a semi-retired job at a very small company that does automotive interior components with textile products that we manufacture right here in North Carolina. My role is largely a teaching, mentoring, leadership role and I love it.

I live in the "Sandhills" of North Carolina. You may have heard of Pinehurst? :-) I live 4 miles from Pinehurst Resort in Talamore Golf Resort located in Southern Pines North Carolina.

For a living? Currently not actually working except on my blog. Previously was a Process Improvement Eng (Six Sigma stuff). Have been around golf since the age of 15 and have worked in different fields in the golf world.

Live on my home course, "Country Club at The Highlands" in Chesterfield (Richmond) Va. I love to talk rules and golf equipment seeing I do and did a lot of it for years. I have coached young kids, which can be the most rewarding thing in golf. A true story about this is on my site entitled " A Golf Shot to Remember" about a young boy with a partial artificial leg.

I love humor in about everything. I am looking forward to becoming an active contributor to The Sand Trap.

Regards,

Gary Stephens

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 26) - Worked on weight shift feel using slap stick drill (hands about 6” apart - coming back weight on trail foot - down - thru weight on lead foot….moved it to hitting chips w/9i playing what I call “leap frog” - hit 1st about 10yds, the next a couple past the 1st, for about 6 balls total.  Love it as the lies change, the distances vary making each swing slightly different.
