I know you're a big believer in the importance of balance, Ed, and I've appreciated your posts on the topic. One of the things that I didn't really get when people talked about balance was that good balance doesn't equal not falling over
I've played lots of different sports and have "good balance" in that I have always felt stable and balanced during my swing - hard/soft swing, straight/bent plane, etc... However, I do not have very good "golf balance" (getting better). When my weight shifts where it shouldn't (usually my toes), my body automatically compensates; I
feel stable, hit the ball and don't fall on my face, but the results aren't always good.
Another flaw Edz likes to talk about is the "lift and roll" takeaway/backswing. When I do that I tend to never clear my right hip and then get in a laid off position at the top. good balance, tracing, etc.. is all pretty tough from there.
