Hello everyone. Found this site while Googling around and was glad to find a golf web forum. Have been playing close to 50 years (I'm 63), so you'd think I'd know more about the game. Well, I guess I know some, but can always learn more. I was a near scratch player in my early to mid 20's, but then life intervened! Now I'm retired and I want my game back! I want to at least get back to single digits.

Welcome fellow Ohioans... I'm originally from Cleveland, but moved to Cinci in 94.  Good luck on getting your swing back. I have played that long too, but never got my game to that level. Life intervened way too much :-)

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
