Squaring the Face (again)

[Daryl]

Do you Finish your Total Motion Iron shots or do you stop short of fully finishing?

Do you Finish your Total Motion Iron shots or do you stop short of fully finishing?

I swing through to a full finish, not trying to hit a 'punch' type shot if that is what you are asking?

If i feel like i'm forcing a horizontal hinge then i'm ok - without thinking about "you've got to roll" then out comes the pushes

Does this mean i'm manipulating my hands or just trying to overcome subconcious steering?

I'm only trying to isolate the Pivot as a possibility of where the fault may originate. If you easily finish your swing, then the pivot is probably ok. But your Pitch shots are ok. Hmm? Try pitching 20,40,50,60,70, and 80 yards with your Wedge working up from Acquired Motion to Full Motion. Try to isolate when the Pushing or Blocking occurs.

The pushing occurs from acquired motion to the full swing if i don't conciously focus on closing the face... say from 20m and out. Chips and shorter shots are ok probably because the face doesn't open up as much on the backstroke.

I don't know. It's an unusual problem; the shorter the iron the more right it's pushed.

Went down the range tonight and worked on a full release - straightened things out a bit for now but will keep working on it. Thanks for the help

An interesting observation is how much roll back to vertical a player has from release point is dependant on the angle of the inclined plane and where the vertical plane of the hinge action intersects it.

The more flat the plane angle the more accumulator 3 you will need in conjunction to load both itself and #2. The hinge action plane from the point of the left shoulder isn't affected by the left shoulders own movement - global application rather than local. With the swingers horizontal hinge action - accumulator 3 will be loaded the least when the vertical plane intersects the inclined plane parallel to the plane line....the most when it goes through the plane line at 90 degrees.... Accumulator 3 is constantly adjusting in accordance to the plane and how far out of line it is with the vertical plane of the hinge action.

For any given point on the inclined plane - maximum no.3 will always be when no.2 is fully loaded also....
