lack of weight forward, too armsy, collapsing wrists, flips, poor tempo, not keeping the inclination ... several, if not all of these issues, in the same swings.

The biggest flaw see is over swinging.  Many golfers try to swing as hard as they can right from the top.  A cast is often the result.  Spinning out and poor weight shift as well.

Whilst I am pretty awful golfer, my best friend has been a pro for 40 years, and we have spent much time discussing such matters. There are several common errors made, and your suggestion is one. Indeed far to many people over swing, and need to shorten it. A long swing is really for the better golfer. Strangely enough, he told me that the grip is rarely the problem. Others include, gripping the club to tightly, trying to hit the ball to hard, over movement of the body, and lifting the head to early. There are countless amounts of minor tweaks that can be taken into account, but unless you are of a very high standard, they aren't worth worrying about.

    • Hi all. I have sought permission from admin to post this here. First, here's a quick link to my products on TST, which a few of the mods have been road-testing...  Most of you would be aware of the import tariffs imposed on importers to the US circa September last year. Prior to their introduction, I was selling a decent number each week into the 'States. Since the tariffs came in - which added ~AU$60 to the total cost of getting them over there - sales have dropped to virtually nil. I think fear of the tariffs is the biggest part rather than the actual cost increase, despite me declaring everywhere on my site that we pay the tariffs and have successfully got every order into the US without any problems since. What is still unknown to most US consumers is that these tariffs will DOUBLE in February as Australia Post will no longer be allowed to offer "private" rates, they all change to "commercial". I do indeed think that this will make the products uncompetitive to ship there. So what's the backstory?  I'm a small Aussie business, not some corporate juggernaut. I invented these products - not a reseller for someone else. The import tariffs double in February, so add another ~15% to the total cost. If you want StanceMate alone I can do a super deal on a run-out model PREVIEW HERE (note you cannot purchase this yet. I think the shipped price will be about AU$110 inc Shipping (tariffs included). If you want to reduce the cost of the whole Stryper Plus Bundle I can swap the runout StanceMate to reduce the overall price by AU$60. These work EXACTLY as the newer version, just not as premium quality in the way the finish is achievbed in production) IMPORTANT: All import tariffs are PRE-PAID at my end, and clears customs no problem. I've sent a half dozen since October with every one delivered. NB: I'm not here to get into the politics of the decisions on tariffs, so let's not go down that road. It is what it is! So StanceMate to your door in US - tariffs prepaid - about US$70 Bundle to your door in US - tariffs prepaid - US$240 Bundle (with version 1 StanceMate) to your door in US - tariffs prepaid - US$200 Cheers Corbs
