Do you think if I twist my front shoulder down over the ball more that would help with key 1 and my path?

Its always funny to me how such a little thing can get you on the right path. Pun intended.

Also this one, See at the top of the backswing, in this drill, Mike's shoulders and hips are on a steeper angle. You need to get turn more with out raising your spin angle. I think part of it has to do with your shallow shoulder turn. I would work on getting that shoulder to turn on a steeper angle, see how that works. That drill Mike is showing, is a great drill for a center pivot, shoulder angle, and feeling where the club should be at the top of the backswing. 3 for 1 deal on that one!!!

Thanks that definitely makes sense.

Yes the left shoulder and hip will feel like they go "down" longer on the backswing. Like that video with Erik and Dave. Another good drill.

So I feel like this looks better. I hit about 15 half speed swings with my 6 iron really feeling like my head wasn't moving and I was turing my shoulders more around my spine. Then I hit three 6i and four drivers. This driver felt the best.  I have to keep the feel of almost turning my front shoulder down to the ball along with feeling like my head is going down a little be.  The first 6i and Driver hit like shit but the ones were all very solid.  I only had time to hit a few tonight but Im hoping sunday I can get  to the range and hit more than 7 balls concentrating on this. Thanks for all the help guys. Im glad I did a DL video with my FO it looked like I was keeping my head steady but obviously not. :whistle:

So, please take this as just a statement of fact. It's a tiny bit better.

Do a lot of this drill:

Change the picture.

You're not gonna reliably change the picture at 100% speed.

Yes sir. You can be brutally honest with me. It was bugging me so I had to try to make it look better. I couldn't sleep last night. :-)

When we finally get out to a range one of these days, I can help you work on this.  If the WI Outing thing does not happen we should play Watertown on the 19th.

Have you tried taking video while feeling like you are really exaggerating the left shoulder moving down? What may feel is overkill could possibly be right on.
