Anyone use this swing thought to help square the face? Good results? Nothing else seems to work so I figured I'd give it a try.

It's like a "good game" slap on the butt.

I like it a hell of a LOT more than the "skipping a rock" hint.

That hint could cause a lot of troubles in over opening the face, etc.  Depends on how you skip rocks......

Sounds good. I saw a video on a site today that kinda talked about both hands doing something. Helped me today when I practiced. I'll get home and send the link. I think I saved it.

Found site for hand action through impact I told ya about in last post. I watched and it was like what you talked about with palm, maybe a little better cause I saw it in the slow motion of the guys hands. This players palm gets square and keeps goin! I googled both guys names and they are pretty good.

Might need a refresher on the Ball Flight Laws

Impact lasts about 400 microseconds , nothing you can do during impact to effect curve on the ball

Yes but you can't, like some commentators say, "dial in" fade or draw curve during impact by adding or lessening face rotation.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
