Been working on setting up with right forearm on plane, struggled a bit with consistent contact until today when I focused on keeping it on plane during the takeaway and throughout the back swing. This meant my right arm was much closer to my body throughout the swing.

For anyone who does this (I think it's all part of The Golf Machine theory), is this what it's meant to feel like or am I making my arc shorter by doing this and robbing myself of distance.

I was absolutely smoking the ball but it was hard to judge distance because of a really big headwind.

Any thoughts?

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      Nothing exposes low point control, and for that matter the general quality of ball striking like tight lies. Lol! I am at a crossroad. My days of playing with a super strong left hand grip are coming to an end it seems. I'm finding it increasingly difficult to maintain proper face control through impact as the club face naturally wants to turn over. The quality of strike and ball flight difference when I weaken the grip is stark. Problem is a weaker grip is at odds with my poor sore left forearm which I have been nursing for last few days after 3 days of demanding golf. As of now I will continue my 'transition' to a weaker grip with woods and hopefully my forearm will condition as I go along. Maybe someday I'll get to a normal address with irons too.
