Here it is.

Down the line, December 14, 2010.



Front view, December 14, 2010.



I notice on my takeaway, I sort of lift the club.

I also think I should fire my left knee more to keep from getting stuck.

Also looking for tips on how to stay on plane.

The DTL video doesnt show a back swing. I hate to say it, but thats not what your swing looks like when you are hitting a ball. I would hit a couple crap balls off into the woods or w/e....but we gotta see you hitting a ball.

I hit some balls in the simulator this evening.

This is one of my better results 12/16/2010.

This is a problem I have right now.  I pulled it left and with the draw/hook spin on it, it is WAY left.

This is something that needs to go away QUICKLY.  It doesn't happen often but I never want to see it again.  Shank right.

Thanks in advance for your input.

Upon further review, my swing is still very much an over the top move, which I have been trying to fix.  This is obviously why I keep pulling the ball.

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • 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?
