I have been taking lessons from Mr Blake since December and he gave me a Taly to practice with. I have not used it very much. I just started using it some. At set up to hit a basic chip my understanding is that you want to make your shaft parallel to the Taly and maintain that relationship throughout the stroke. My question is are the hands really that far forward at setup. It just feels like the hands are too far forward. My last question is on a ball played at low point when you get your hands parallel to the Taly then the hands are really forward on a low point shot. The results have been pretty good but just wanted to make sure I am doing this right before I put too much time into it.
