- Pre-set impact by pushing your hips forward and leaving your head in place. This will add secondary axis tilt (the tilt in the right side of your spine/side).
- Swing back, then through (a short swing, a long chip is fine)
- Through impact resist any twisting and try to stop the club as quickly as possible. The sensation is to "hit fast, stop fast."

Interesting - I'll try that > I wish I had access to super slo-mo.

PS. Where the H is that range - that looks like a pretty nice place to work on stuff without gawkers.

If you have $220, you do (and that includes the memory card). Or buy my camera from me in the Marketplace.

Back range of Whispering Woods. The teaching end of the range.

What is the point of trying to stop the follow through short and fast?

Your body will generate more speed. Throw a punch with no stopping point - just let your arm kind of slow down on its own. Now throw a punch where you almost start to recoil to "brake" the punch. The second is much faster.

Plus, this teaches you to use your back and larger muscles and not your wrists to stop the club. It's two-fold.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
