STEERING, the Number One malfunction!
Can't think of any ultimate reason except " Steering" (3-F-7-A), the Number One malfunction as Mr. Kelley wrote. Therefore, the "Number One" enemy of golf.
Why do people "Steer", despite of knowing (or not) they are not supposed to?
Can't help!!! It's an instinct, a habit, a way of living, and why golf, as well as life, is so fascinating. 
How do you help something "can't help"?
What the hell....? The sun rises tomorrow!!
Without "Steering", golf is boring.

YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the " LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain ( Yang/陽) the lag ( Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" ( 陰陽合一).
The " LAW" creates the " effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the " cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
" Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn.
Bend the shaft.

Steering is a result of our humanistic tendency. You know man making man the center of everything. A futile attempt at self-deification! We fight what IS...out of sheer rebellion!  This especially applies to adults! Natural law...spiritual law...we buck the system. BUCKet...get it! |

Most uneducated golfers, when on the course, try to make the shot rather than the motion. Let the motion make the shot.
Steering gets its job done with the aid of its partner in crime: Quitting. And the reason we quit is because it is instinctual. Trust you natural instincts and you will be wrong. Hogan said it and I will also. Now here is the important point: uneducated golfer return their hands to the mid-line of their brain, not to the center of the arm motion (for a golfer using the left shoulder as the center of the motion). Try this experiment, while in front of your computer, make your Right Forearm Flying Wedge with an imaginary club. Now look at it. Is your forearm pointing directly in front of you at twelve o'clock or is it pointing between ten and eleven o'clock. If it is pointing in front of you, you have just returned it to the mid-line of your brain. The RFFW should be orientated to the center of the motion (left shoulder), which is Left Side (center) Orientation. To get it there requires a shift in brain function. Until you get that in your coconut, quitting and steering are your daily companions. They are the silent killers of your game. Try typing on your computer with the screen off-center all day today. Pretty anoying after a while. We instinctively bring things back to our center.
Left Side (Center) Orientation may help many of you feel Hinge Action for the first time, Swivel for the first time and even a Flat Left Wrist for the first time as well as many other benefits. The Arm motion needs to know where its center is. It has made a difference in so many of my students. Ben Doyle teaches it and so does Lynn Blake. It can trasform your game to a new level, just by changing your concept and overcoming your natural instinct.

Nice!
I usually reserve this Deniro quote for Yoda

Sheeesh!
I amay sound like a stuck record on this but like Homer (if I may be so bold to presume) I had fit when I realized just how "forward" the angle of the right forearm approach actually is. I had watched Yoda's Dowels and Drill...100 times before that piece of the puzzle came into focus. I really like the way you explained it Drewitgolf. I have a better understanding of why assembling the flying wedges can be challenge. Watching Yoda do a bit in the Barclays deal helped me explain it. By aligning your left arm at low point, then moving your right hand towrards the left with palms touching. No one believes just how far the right arm is left of its normal (address) position. I read somewhere that Homer said "sheesh!" when he realizedthat the right forearm has its own angle of approach. I second that sheeesh! |

Until I started my takeaway from impact fix, I would have been guilty of being centre aligned
