For me it has always taken 1-2 workdays a little bit longer if you upload on the weekends

Thanks for letting me know. It's been a couple of days, so hopefully they'll get around to it soon.

You'll probably get your analysis today. Submit later on August 7, get it August 9.

Excellent. Looking forward to it. Thanks.

Just from watching your swing... I'd really focus on your pivot (right leg).

That is what I'm working on and I'm thinking of it like a dance step/move.  Nailing the cadence and really cleaning the movement/weight shift and distribution.

You may be right. I still haven't heard anything from the "Evolvr" coaches, but I certainly noticed some things (extended back-swing, flying right elbow, hips/legs dipping at A9, lack of hip extension in the follow-through, etc) I thought may be causing issues.

Well, I just received my analysis from James and had a quick look at it. I'm really happy with the analysis and am looking forward to working on the changes. It appears that you (Beachcomber) and I both spotted a couple of things that were out of place, but it looks like we may have been looking at the effects as opposed to the causes. To summarise, James spotted the following faults:

Setup:

— Stance width needs to be 2-3 inches narrower.

— Feet need to be fanned out an additional 20 degrees to allow the knees to move outward.

— Shaft needs to lean forward and point towards the left hip (which creates a flat left wrist and bent right wrist).

— Arms need to hang outward to create more space between the hands and legs.

Backswing:

— Elbows need to be closer together (which should hopefully shorten the backswing and prevent the flying right elbow).

Apparently my downswing and sequencing needs a lot of work, but the above changes need to be implemented before hand.

Good deal.  The good news is that you can incorporate the above setup changes fairly quick.  Post some new vids when you feel like you've nailed the new setup.

    • How would you change the rule to make it more "fair", and still be consistently interpreted and enforced?  It may not be perfect, but as a referee I can watch a player and look at the ground surface and make a ruling.  How can it be changed to address different players and their individual height, weight, and shoe size?
    • A bit old.. but this rule is kind of unfair ...  Lets say that you have Emiliano Grillo and Darren Clark playing together on a PGA event and on one hole both hit the ball to the middle of the fairway only 1 inch apart. When they arrive to the ball Darren take his stand and water comes out from the ground and remains there so he procceds take a free drop on a dry area and hit his shot.  Afterwards Grillo takes his stance in the same spot as Clark, but because he is a lot ligther, no water araise from the ground. According to the rules he is not allowed a free drop from the same spot darren had a free drop seconds before. I would love to see this happenning live on TV. Can an argument be made by grillo? could and official use the "spirit of the rule" to let him have a free drop?     
    • Day 84 (24 Jul 25) - Weekly nine hole round cancelled as the course was tied up with a ladies tournament.  No worries - set up with the 54deg wedge and worked on varied shots with green side focus in mine (those nGIR's).  Worked between high floaters and low spinners from varied lies replicating the types of lies I typically see on the courses around here.  
    • I meant lb for lb - so yes I agree it's wheel weight. How would you go about explaining that to someone? Perhaps the rotational inertia being higher with heavier wheels and the rotational inertia of the wheel requiring more torque to make its angular acceleration increase at the same rate? 
    • Day 7: Had a virtual putting lesson with @iacas. Spent some time afterwords working with the metronome.
