Maverick, Ive seen both of your videos you posted and the one thing that upsets me is that your in shorts and I may have to shovel snow this Friday morning if this storm hits us. lol....Other then that swing looks good, maybe try keeping your spine angle the same on your follow through and firing that right shoulder under your chin on follow through. But all in all looks good.

I've noticed in the second scene my practice swings look much better..I seem to get past parallel on the actual swing. Funny thing is that the whole day one of my key thoughts with the irons was to only swing back as far as I felt "comfortable" with. You know not to "try" to get parallel..and I think this was the reason why my tempo and contact were much better than average.

Nice job, if you wouldn't mind cutting out the practice swings and waggles next time it would be easier to watch.

Also, try YouTube.com if you're unhappy with PutFile, YouTube is pretty nice.

Swing looks nice and centered, however couple of big fundamentals wrong though, ball position for a 7 iron is much too far back, and the hands are much too far towards the target which is delofting the club even more. The hand position plus the ball position may help you strike the ball better but it will come out much lower than the proper trajectory. Just a cuple of things to work on as i hate to see poor ball position as it is so easy to fix but can cause so many other problems,

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
