Thanks very much everyone. TST is obviously a really great place to hang out and talk golf, and you learn very quickly there are a lot of smart, opinionated people here. For a new member, it's sort of like growing up in a tough neighborhood. As you begin to step up and get involved, you're going to be challenged, and you have to fight back when you feel you're right, but also realize when you're not (or there's hell to pay!). It's also great to have a lot of talented instructors and others willing to share their knowledge about the game. I hope I'm smart enough to take advantage of their generosity, and all the other resources available here. This isn't a site for the faint of heart.  I still feel like I'm learning the ropes here, but the last few months have been a lot of fun, and I'm sure it will only keep getting better!

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.
