Quick question on this to determine if this is normal or not.

Have worked on what I "think" this is, which does generate a more promounced feel that the club accelerates through the ball, all good. Also get the feeling of posting on the left leg more and not drifting too forward. Last good thing is that the follow through is more complete and I can "tap" the right toe at the end and finish in good balance. Those are all good.

however, after doing this for awhile, admittedly for the first time, the left side of the left knee and left hip are a little sore. Is this normal while adopting this (and requires more stretching exercises to build up flexibility and strength on the left side of the left leg) or is it possibly overcooking the move abit and the correct feeling is likely not quite as severe as I may be doing.

Wodnering if others expereince when first doing this is to expect a little bit of achiness until you get it smoothed out or not.

Not talking excruciating pain here, but just the general achiness of stretching out where you aren't used to it.

Thanks

I have a sense there is something else going on here with your move but I would need to see it. Most people find themselves much more pain free with this move since it allows for the whole body to flow together rather than creating resistance.

Equipment, Setup, Finish, Balance, and Relax. All equal in importance and all dependent on each other. They are the cornerstones of a good golf swing.

Tiger needed knee surgery due to posting. Of course his 120+ MPH swing speed could have something to do with it.

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
    • Day 264 5-24 Worked on getting chest through and arms down infront of chest. Contact isn't great yet but on video looking better.
