I might have been a little hard on the OP myself, but like I said they coaches I come into contact with have no business teaching anyone how to swing a golf club. I don't care if the kid is a straight beginner, the crap that comes out of their mouths is scary bad. And don't get me started on the middle school coaches, good lord!

    • That's interesting. I think it depends on which arm you use to lean the shaft forward.  If you predominantly use your leading (left) arm to "pull" the shaft forward (do this by putting your left wrist into flexion), then the face appears to be closed.  Instead, if you use your trailing (right arm) to "push" the shaft forward (do this by supinating your right forearm), then the face does appear open.  
    • For many, that will open the face. So, no. It's not universally true.
    • Day 581 - 2026-05-05 Spent an interesting 90 minutes on GEARS Hybrid. Prioritization is important.
    • Day 255 5-5 Getting arm off chest in backswing and downswing. Starting to make a bit of progress. Recorded  and hit foam balls. 
    • Day 2, May 5 2026.  I went to putt today;  my usual make-24 drill.  Scored a 35 from 4' and 58 from 6'.   Those scores both beat the bogey player baseline;  I wish I had numbers for something between a scratch golfer and a 90-golfer available for me (I might be able to infer them from ShotScope?).   Either way, I'm happy with that performance.  From 4', 3 coins came up on the second pass and another 3 on the third.  One of these days I might make 12 in a row, which is something I'd like to see 🙂
