Hi guys, even though Mike and James have been helping me out with my swing through Evolvr a TON, I still can't figure out how to keep a steady head, and thought I'd post my latest swings.  Any tips on keeping the head still?  Also, as per Mike and James' advice, I'm trying (without much success) to get my arms detached from my body.  Everyone's feedback is much appreciated!

I think you have a ton of really good pieces. Your lower body is great in the backswing.You have the same head up move that I do in the very last phase of the backswing. My view is that your left shoulder could go more down to avoid moving your eye line. I think mvmac's video on sequencing to help with your right elbow movement. I think it gets way behind you and from there you are fighting to try to get it synched up.

The back swing is a little flat which is what's causing the arm's issue. Take the club to the top of your back swing and stop. Then just lift your arms up a little so the left arm is more across your shoulders to see what that feels like. It could be a flexibility issue to why your swing is so flat. The good thing is that your are on plane during the downswing. What is your missed shots.

Thanks, the shoulder down is one move that I keep trying to work on.  And I do like that video, which if just simulating the same motions that Mike does in it, means that I am moving my arms around wayyyy too much!

Thanks, I'll give that a shot.  My misses are a mix of hooks with short clubs, and slices with the longer clubs (woods/hybrids/long irons), but I've also been hitting off the heel and shanking shots.

    • First, it is on free TV. NBC is free to anyone with an antenna, and is on almost any TV in the U.S. with a minimal amount of effort. Charging "a bargain price" would be incredibly dumb. They charged $750 and the event sold out almost immediately. You could better argue they should have charged MORE, not less. What happens if you charge less: ticket scalpers buy up even more of the tickets because they see value: if tickets were $250, they'd clearly have sold for $1k or more on the secondary market. That's tremendous value. Fans would end up paying the same or more, or just not being able to go. Sure, a few who happened to be online at the precise moment on a fast connection and didn't fumble with their credit cards might have gotten tickets for $250, but the secondary market and ticket brokers would have scooped up the vast majority with automated processes and bots and scripts, then re-sold them later on. This way, fans get to purchase the tickets, and the PGA is earning that revenue, not the secondary ticket brokers. Econ 101. Supply and Demand. Nope.
    • Edit - the link has no title, but basically Tiger wants $5 million for each US player to “donate to charity”   They could put the Ryder Cup on free to air tv, and charge the fans a bargain price to get in.  If you have to  give the players $60 million, that’s why the tickets are $750.

    • P7TWs all day IMO. Especially because they're already fit for you. And it sounds like you have an interest in buying/selling so using the Vapor Pros would only decrease their value.
