Hands in clubhead out post impact as per instructor. Now that I look at past videos, that clubhead is going left post impact way too quickly.

Signed up for the one yearΒ practice package at the PGA Superstore. It's a little bit of a hassle every time you go in they have to tag your clubs and take your head cover. Plus having problems with the reservation website. Can definitely see the closerΒ to Christmas, the more of a zoo, but at a fraction of what it costs at Golftec, not a bad deal, wanted to try something different this winter. Haven't tried using its simulators, just my own camera and soon, a Mevo. There's barely enough space to get a clipped face on view and a full down the line view. Will have to see long term how this package plays out.Β

That'd make me take about three irons tops every time I visited. Ugh.

I'm gonna leave the stickers on, see how that works. Doesn't look like a visit to the course is in the cards anytime soon.Β :mellow:

You can't just grab a demo from their rack? If you're just working on your swing does it really matter whose club you're hitting?

Yeah, I like sticking with my own clubs. I don't mind the stickers, will probably get used to it quickly.

If there's one complaint I have about the iPhone camera, it's that it needs maybe 2-3 more feet of space compared to my old Casio point and shoot. Doesn't sound like much but in context of golf ranges, helps. I guess I could use a wide angle attachment but distortion.Β

Same stuff, shallow, motorcycleΒ (more aware of timing of shallow and motorcycle -Β rates), left hip around and up, also keep chest turning as well, hands in clubhead out, trail wrist was flexing too quickly at A8.

Tried something else, right knee kicking out has been bothering me for a long time, tried more trail foot banking, right hip up and in, right knee to left knee, exaggeration:

Not as exaggeratedΒ

Paying a little more attention to bottom half, just keep turning left.

@nevets88Β is your weight getting too far back on your heels?

At setup? Not sure, will monitor it next time. Definitely trying to finish more in the lead heel, banked trail foot, knees together post A9.

I have a tendency to lean towards the ball post impact, right knee kicking towards ball.

Focused on face on view, swing looking more dynamic, added more back extension compared to last time from A6 onward.

Dumped the Mevo last few sessions, focused more on movement than numbers.

Lol, thanks. Frankly, I don't play enough, @billchaoΒ can attest to that.Β :-PΒ Will work on that in the coming season. And yes, the short game suffered because I spend so much time on the long game, but I've addressed that this year more, and will do so even more next year.

And I need to do The Matrix Free... Your... Mind... thing.Β :-D

I play with quite a few 20+ handicapersΒ and NONE of them look like you at impact.

In fact not manyΒ of the guys in the 10-15 range look like that either.

Go play young man, go play.

I definitely will. Looks like that 2018 goal list needs reordering!

He likes to putΒ his approach shots within 8' of the pin and get up to the green only to find out he was aiming at the wrong greenΒ ;-)

All jokes aside, his short game and putting weren't as good as his long game the last time we were out.

    • Played Sunday and implemented the Mayo spinner. Hit my second shot long and left on three to a bare lie. I have seen this shot to a tucked pin but I don’t swing across it enough and hit it too far with a ton of spin but it rolled into the bunker. I pulled my approach short and left on ten to a horrible lie with about 3’ of rise to a tucked pin maybe 5’ on the green. Ball is in a damp lie with debris behind and in front of the ball. Hit it to 3.5’ but horseshoed the putt around the right edge, which was a common miss. I hooked my tee shot into an unplayable lie in the hazard on the left side of the par 5 16th. Hit a great recovery that rolled to about 45 yards short of the back right pin. Hit the spinner over a bumpy green that rolled just over the ridge to 3’. Sank the straight 2.5’ putt. Felt like I had good control of these shots!
