The deceleration comment came from someone watching me but as I watch the video, I see the shaft flexing correctly at the top and then as I start to flip the club about half way down, you can see the shaft lose its lag and the shaft flex forward and lose all of its energy too early. It may not be that I'm decelerating as much as I'm releasing the club too early. Thoughts? How do i fix it?

It looks like I am flipping/helping the ball. Agree. I have heard that flipping the ball creates a higher, or less penetrating ball flight, resulting in less distance. One more point. I lost 90 pounds in 2011 and it was at a steady rate of approximately 10-12 pounds a month and it coincided with the decline of my game. I was frustrated and did some research and found the most famous case to be David Duval. Apparently he lost considerable weight and got into better physical shape, but it wreaked havoc with his game because of the changes to his body. Thanks.

Here's my video. Be gentle.

I'll try whipping the club all the way around with a little abandonment. My friend calls it a fear of commitment. He says I don't want to sacrifice good form. Sounds like your reckless abandonment idea is the key. Thanks.

I have a problem with deceleration at the point of impact. A friend watched me and he said I have good form to the top, I start down well enough but I decelerate about half way down. It's costing me about 20 yards. I try to concentrate on accelerating on the down swing but something seems to disconnect between thinking about it and executing it. Any recommendations?
