So a week ago I found i was crushing my drives, my hybrid was great, and down to the long irons was going well. When it came to the short irons, it was a mess and everything did not feel like a good swing at all. Doing some thinking, I redid my backswing, and followed Hogan's glass pane idea and it has worked perfectly. Everything is clicking now and I could not be happier. My only concern is this. When I step up to the ball with a driver or wedge, the only thing I think of in the entire swing is to just follow the pane in the backswing, and and then I'm good. Is this a sound way to swing? Should I consciously go on plane with my backswing, or should it happen naturally with all clubs like my downswing is? I would much rather have the same backswing with all clubs and for it to be on plane, but the problem was that I was swinging to flat for my short irons, while on my driver it was perfect. Any ideas?

I'm in the same boat you are so I would be interested in someone's answer. My main objective on every swing is to bring the club back on plane. I would love not to have to think about it but I don't know. The thought has really helped me.

    • Day 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well. 
    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands
