Swinging But With Angled Hinge
I'm almost certain that I'm using a swinging motion, but I'm having trouble with a tendency to block some shots, particularly with the driver and longer clubs. When I check my motion post impact I always have the feeling that I'm putting an angled hinge motion on the ball. I want to believe that I'm letting CF do it's "job" but it seems that when I do that the leading edge of the face gives the appearance of being in an angled hinge orientation and I have that "no roll" feeling. This makes me wonder if I'm really swinging or if I have some hitting components at work.

The blocks aren't huge, but I can tell I'm not getting any compression on the ball. Some shots I hit are pure as can be, particularly from SW thru 5 or 6 iron, but when I try to swivel into impact with the longer clubs I feel like I start to overpower the CF and get erratic results. It doesn't happen on every swing - I hit more than one drive over 300 yards today. I just feel like I'm having to interfere with the physics on some shots.

Any suggestions?
