So I see three things to work on. - Posture- stand a little taller but "hunch" the upper back to get the eyes down - Key #1- "stretch" the right hip up more and longer on the backswing

Been working on that. With a tournament coming up on Monday what should I be thinking about on the downswing to keep it simple

[VIDEO]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZI-sT4h3e14[/VIDEO] I have been using the stick daily now at hone and at the course. Is there any improvements at all? Certainly a very frustrating piece. Should I also be trying to hold back my turn because i feel like I'm spinning and am hitting a lot of pull hooks

[video]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-3d545pMOs[/video] Just wondering if based off this video any more weight has gotten forward or if I am still faking it. Head obviously still moving forward but Id like to know if my leg work is better

I took a look at a video I posted November 2013 and a video from the other day and noticed some big changes, Weight seems more forward, knee definitely more flexed, head still going forward but not as much. If I'm right it's encouraging to see that I have made some progress!

[video]https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CTliqvGwu5o[/URL][URL]https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eYclSZPYlvY[/video] I took a few days off from golf and was encouraged to come back when I saw all the progress I made since last November. When I went to hit balls it's nothing but heel shots and mostly shanks. Any thoughts?

[VIDEO]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNACgs4UXjs[/VIDEO] I also took this video because I noticed my hips were very stagnant, I felt like I was taking my rear end and making it face the target, I struggled with some fat shots but I noticed I stayed behind it better, it also gave me a tendency to swing well right.

What about the early extension, it's killing my downswing

[video]https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2VY4Ti-HrXI[/video] Took this video really feeling hip turn, but oddly enough I'm still hitting a lot of shanks and heel shots, do you see where that's coming from?

@BenGolf19 ,

I am not sure from you video what would cause the shanks.  I get them occasionally on the range.  I switch clubs, relax, then go back to my drills.  I don't get them on the course.  I did not see anything in the video that was obvious.

It has been awhile since I have posted a swing on here and I hope I have made some progress as Im still working on the same things. Currently have a bit of a two way miss and fight toe strikes

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By boogielicious · Posted

      Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
