I felt good.

[rkim291968]

Been there and done that many times.  Some days, it works great.  On other days, it only takes a few swings to abandon it.

I went to my carpet by the front door.

I got into a powerful posture.

I momentarily forgot everything. The world melted away. Just me in my posture.

Yep, I was there. Comfortable, strong.

I bent knees more, then less. Strong then weak. Then I did it all backwards. Then got into that best address position for me. I tried, anyway.

Here I am, posting.

I had a 9-iron from the umbrella stand by the front door. Hope that's ok.  I saw what happened. Not much.

Guess I'll go back and review/remember the posture pointers from my evolvr lessons a while back. Damn, thought I was onto the "real deal" there for a sec.

I did this in my living room. You owe me a new tv.

What happened with a more powerful posture for me...

- My grip pressure tightened, which, for me, is detrimental to my swing

- I tried to swing harder, which for me, took me out of my normal swing tempo.... again, detrimental to my natural swing

- When concentrating on his new feeling of power, I forgot some of the swing thoughts which I have found to be successful over the last 50+ years

Having said that, if I felt that this is really something that could improve my game, I would have to come up with a plan to implement this into my swing, and conceivably could take my game to a better place.  However, for me, now at age 65, I have tried so many things over the years, that this concept is contrary to what I believe is best for my swing and my game.  But, it is an interesting concept and was fun to conceptualize.

I seem to "get" what you are trying to say .......I am curious as to the result when you did it?  I will be on the range/course tomorrow and will give this a shot, although I am not sure anything but my normal set up will feel more comfortable...

Hey, I posted a new thread here a year or so ago, and when I re-read it, I still have no clue what the heck I was thinking- something about the path of the club and shoulders/hips...  and just a confusing mess of words.  Fortunately nobody was as snarky to me as I was to you (I think someone even asked me for clarity, and I wasn't able to really straighten out what I was thinking). Definite dunce cap moment for me.

Anyway, I apologize for being an ass. See you around in other threads!

Easy, towering banana slice. That's why I take lessons and read as much as I can.
