(im guessing you combined my old thread?) Yes ive greatly noted how high my shaft comes in and it causes a lot of toe divots. But what exactly do you mean my arms hang inside my arms, and what exactly would be forward ankle flexion.?

Its already started, have a tourny tuesday actually... And posture didnt feel weird, but the grip did.

Oh man, you just opened a can of somethin else on this forum haha. Be ready to reply and back up your thoughts.... Oh and thanks for the help in my swing thread by the way.

Spoke a little to late, already tried implementing all the changes i have been advised (including yours) in the living room lol. But not confusing at all. The posture and grip was fairly easy, but when i did the top of my backswing thing, creating that 45* angle, it felt like a whole new swing (good feeling though, not bad feeling). I know you said it would take a long time to learn it, but i definatly already felt what you were talking about.

age 18, HC is to the left in my info box. Short term goal- Have one of the top 4 scores in all my golf tournys for highschool on our team. Long term- Play to scratch or lower.

So all in all what ive got from all y'alls help is that: I need to keep my head back/still and keep driving my hips forward. And to maintain my lag which will straighten out my arm and keep me from compensating. Is this correct?

alright thanks erik.

Exactly! (to the right of the ball if you were looking at it from the back) And if your doing this drill with a driver, you might be better off using a shoe box for the drill as you still might be able to come ott with a driver and miss the headcover depending on the height of the tee.

Thanks to both for the picture and video postings.... And to the side tilt, every time i really feel like im keeping my head behind the ball and really moving my hips through, creating a side tilt. I always end up chunking it. Thoughts? thanks for the help again.

Link to the video? And do you mean i should feel the stretch on my oblique once i start my downswing with my hips and start swinging through with my upper body?

take your driver headcover, and (for a right handed player) place it about an inch or two on the outside of the ball,take a normal swing, and from there just dont hit the headcover.If you hit it you know your coming ott. You can increase/decrese the distance the headcover away is from the ball for more or less difficulty obviously being if the headcover is closer it will be harder to come otp. Hope that all made since. You can also do something along the lines hank haney did with barkley. Try and create somewhat of a looping swing. Take the club away to the outside and just make a looping motion to the inside on the downswing.

Kinda like what someone said above me. I used to tell myself not to use my driver at all during a round, but of course my ego would get in the way and id eventually use it. So for about a month i forced myself to leave my driver at home and only use 3 wood or less off the tee and shot my best rounds doing that. Give it a whirl.

I dont think they have said where it will be hosted at, therefore probably no air date yet. but here's a video that gives you a little taste of what kind of talent will be on the show. http://www.thegolfchannel.com/golf-videos/big-break-2011-14931/?ref=26000&rsec;=261

I wasn't trying to disregard his advise, i politley said thanks and that id try and it. And thanks a lot for your advise to, pictures are greatly appreciated. I do have the pbs so ill continue using that along with trying to keep the hips moving like you said. The problem i had also while looking at it is that i cant stop my head from moving forward when i move my hips forward. Any tips/ideas on this?

i dont slice a lot though. It only comes into at the end of my round really when im getting lazy and or tired. But ill try narrowing my stance a little and see how it goes thanks :)

no one at all???? guess i just have a great swing hahah jk

1. Straight ball 2. Slice 3.Fixing laid off club that was making me come otp. *edit- driver swing is now up

Please critique everyone. ( ill have the driver up in a few minutes)

I was watching the school of golf the came on yesterday and a few things sounded wrong and contradicted the new ball flight laws( or i believe so). First he said all slices are caused by an open club face. But with the new laws hasn't it been concluded the club face angle determines where the ball starts and swing path relative to target line determines spin? With that he said the way to correct a slice was to close the face earlier and just use a stronger grip, which really is just short-term "bandaid" cures rather than a solution. Lastly he said hitting more down on the ball does not cause higher ball flight rather getting rid of your lag earlier/ releasing the club earlier in the down swing will get you higher ball flight. That's pretty much saying flipping the club is good? Any one else see this or am I completely wrong?

man i have to give him props though, if it's what he was going for, he set up the perfect scam. He got a bunch of people to buy something and rave about, which encouraged a lot more people to purchase it, in which he steals their money and either ignores them or gives false shipment dates. Clever.............. that or he died, in which I'd feel bad for writing this.

My chrome version is 9.0.597.98 Flash - Version: 10.2.154.12 Shockwave Flash 10.2 r154 O/S- Windows 7

the new performance series glove does.

So it's good for it to be like that? or no meaning at all really?

Is this picture (the dirt line not on leading edge) a sign of flipping?

Just ordered a "very good" Cobra speed LD-f driver from them for 70 bucks with 2 day shipping. (used a coupon that got me like 10 bucks off)
