I discovered this on the Range today my only thought was have my belly follow the clubhead at the same speed I can't believe how it improved my accuracy with all clubs I guess it is just about getting the club head square at impact any thoughts

I recently had a similar "realization" except, in my variation, it came alongside the thought of keeping my head still.  I was totally moving my head back in the first part of my take-away without even realizing it.

Now, on video, I can see that my head moves drastically less . .and it feels like my belly/midsection/torso/what-have-you, follows the clubhead. 

My take-away, at least the first part, now feels like a weird "belly stretch" - if that makes any sense, lol.  I feel my hips staying where they are and my head staying where it is . .and my belly turning to stay in-line with the clubface.  This feeling lasts until I start to lift my arms in the backswing.

Then, in the downswing and follow through - the club feels like it stays connected with my belly - even pushing ahead of it . .and definitely not getting behind my belly-button anymore. 

As long as I can keep my wrists loose at the same time - this is smash-city - the best I've ever hit it . .by a big margin.

Sounds similar, I have never heard any one with this swing thought just hope it's not a one time fluke.It makes sense though if your belly button follows your club head all the way back and through with arms connected to body you can't get ahead or behind with your swing , if  that make sense , don't have to think of anything else it just happens naturally perfect rythem  and a nice draw I also visualize the swing path and try to keep club head on that path

    • Can you elaborate on this?  There's a par-4 hole at the course I've played the most (was my home course for over a decade, now 50 miles away but I still go and play there) whose green is below the fairway and I realized recently it's one of three holes on the course I've never made birdie, despite that I often have a short iron into the green for my second shot.  It isn't even that I haven't made birdie, but I realize I often don't hit the green.  My typical play of the hole is to have a near-GIR and sometimes I get up and down, but not as often as I would if I were trying to 2-putt.
