It is better. Good job. (Pat on back)

Now, do more:

Hit lots of soft punch shots holding your finish at about A8 to check things and correct them as necessary.

Yeah, I know I'm still separating a bit post impact. That's what I'm really focusing on more now. I did upload the new videos to evolvr just to show the improvement. I've focused so much on the impact position that I've neglected the follow through.... bad monkey!

Are you being snarky with the pat on back stuff or serious? Hard to tell! :-X

It was kind of a joking thing, I'm sure he understood it. :beer:

Thanks, finally feeling pretty good about my swing again.

Agree with Erik (duh), I really like hitting balls with a swing that feels like it goes to A2 in the backswing and A8 in the through swing. In reality it goes a little longer than that but that's the feel. It's the perfect length for me to really focus on my BS feels and my DS feels and it's a small enough motion that you can have continual success with it and build up from there. Added bonus is the auditory feedback, when I do my "Erie" piece properly with hips pushing forward I get a very distinct sound at impact.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

It could be a system error though! USPS has one of the most complicated and expensive long haul systems and they don't really care to optimize anything because they operate under a deficit and get bailed out by the fed year in and year out! I don't think you want us to get into the inefficiencies of the government in your thread though so, stupid USPS can't get things right! There! I hope you get it soon!

As an update, the package left Louisville at 12:24 am and hasn't checked in anywhere since..... I'm starting to get very aggravated with USPS...... It was due to arrive today. I just don't understand the logistics of their shipping....

Once, I was tracking a package I was supposed to receive on a certain day. It left a facility near my house that morning and was checked into the same facility 12 hours later. I got it the next day :mad:

Did you get it yet? I think Imma gonna go buy mine at GS after work today. Your shipping experience has dissuaded me from saving $20some by ordering online.

It's out for delivery now. I saved about 100 for buying online so it was worth it. For 20 nope, I would have bought locally.

Ordered my bio cell plus off ebay today.... Super high rated seller so I'm hoping it's copacetic because I got it for about 190. I feel bad because the guy that fitted me was super nice but he wanted 280 for it.... I'll probably go pay him the $30 for the fitting.


I'm getting mine for $200, but you got the Plus.

Got my new evolvr back. Other than keeping focus on the previous stuff I just need to stand more upright at set up.

Videos from Erie, PA at Golf Evolution:

Ok, so I think I have the upright stance better here. Obviously I've made no progress on totally eliminating the flip and having better extension through impact. One thing I'm noticing here is while I keep a pretty steady head through the backswing my head drifts forward a couple inches on the downswing. Also, still getting a little steep on the downswing.

    • I know you guys were discussing this like a year ago. But, ironically I just had this discussion with my brother-in-law. We literally just did one of these. I'd always used the "Slow-Cook, Rest, and Sear" Method. But my bother-in-law was convinced the "5-Min/lb, 500 degree" method was the way. So, we gave it a go. I have to say it came out great.  I have a 25 year old, electric oven, GE brand... Not sure if that matters, but it came out great. ... Of course we stressed that nobody was to open the oven.   I don't make these all that often so, I'm not sure if I can fully recommend one method or the other, because without doing a Pepsi Challenge, I'd say both ways come out great. 👍😁👍
