Checklist of Checkpoints

[outlaw1984]

Hey Everyone... I have been thinking of a few things that may be stupid to some people and to some it may be a benefit but everyone know a golf swing does not come over night...but practice also makes us better.....so is what were practicing, right? if im to bent over at address am i practicing right when my posture stinks......so i thought it would be good to take a Excel spreadsheet and make a checklist of what we should do for example until someone looks at thereself with a camera they might think they feel right....but we know that feel most of the time isnt real....so can we really go on to the next step if step one isnt complete? for instance at address: Is my hands to far back? or forward? is my head down? am i set up like Mike and Andy told me to set up? if you practice simple things like this and then you feel confortable with it then you can check it and go on....but if not then you have to work on little things....i know the list can be probably a little extensive, BUT it could help some people like myself know.... take the arm take away, for some it may feel like your taking it inside but until you have a camera shot of it, is it what the S&T; guy perscribe? maybe my arms are to far inside...or maybe their not inside at all.... Any suggestions or ideas....or im just stupid with coming up with this?

I am not sure I would go with a checklist, reason being it might get a bit long. Then you are checking like 15 things and it gets hard to swing. I do suggest however keeping a journal that you can bring with you to the range and you say that today you are going to work on 1 thing, write it down and then log the results. Did it look good on camera, how was the ball flight. The nice thing about the journal is it will allow you to go back and review what worked and what didn't. You can also use the journal to show your pro and he/she can give you feedback on it.
