Shawn, I'll say this slowly so that you can understand: Your slow turning rates are leading to your elbow getting too

Set up with your hips a bit more where the white line is. You're a little back in your heels, so you re-balance toward the balls/toes of your feet a bit.

Cheers to you as well! But, I can't claim it.  I actually picked it up watching one of Ben's swing videos. http://thesandtrap.com/u/16/Ben I thought it was a great way to add some visu

I have been missing your updates. Sad to get so busy when spring hits. I have some of the same issues. Hopefully it means you will have a relaxing summer and get lots of range time to improve. I got a tip a few weeks ago that has helped "a little" with the goat humping issues, once you are back up and running with some videos I will suggest it to see if it helps.

Finally had a chance to get the camera out and film few 6i swings on the range.

I still have lots of work to do... It looks like I regressed a little, but I actually hit the ball pretty well during the range session.  My biggest issue is finding my low point consistently.  And that has to do with the right elbow.  I gotta nail that PP5 piece.

Mind your camera angles… Toe line. Clubhead will look too far in at 2 and 6 with the camera out there where you've got it.

Good deal.  I'll try and re-film tomorrow and get some better angles for you.  You'd think I'd have this down by now!?

We talking about golf, or cinematography?

If it helps, I like to take my stance, put down a TST alignment stick down on my toe-line, and then go use that to line up the camera. Then when I step back up to the ball I can remove the stick, and as long as I keep placing the ball in the same spot, my toe-line shouldn't change.

Hey, I was using an alignment stick... But for some reason I was thinking the best camera position was the mid point between your toe line and the ball. Why I was not able to remember the correct setup after doing this for the past year... I have no idea?!  I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed!

I was under the same impression but I'm not helping your image here because I am definitely an idiot!

I'm (obviously) just being an a-hole for fun.  In all seriousness, I screw up half of my videos too, and for some reason, I have a bigger problem with the face-on ones.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By Sammydreep ·

      Yes, slightly. Hitting driver and three wood much better, generally straight or a slight draw, Especially since I upgraded from ping G 410 to G 430. Both clubs have 2degrees more loft. That together with a slight swing  change, improved technology ,definitely getting more distance.  On the downside not hitting my ions as well as normal, pitching definitely improving, especially for someone who got to a four handicap 30 years ago and couldn’t pitch . Chipping a bit up and down, pardon the pun, that was definitely one of the reasons I got to that  handicap when I played many moons  ago, ( I stopped playing for 20 years), better short putter than I was before Had quite a few opportunities to shoot my age, 73, mostly didn’t chip as well as I could when I had the chance.
