I struggle with this too . . . . I think you have to learn to keep your hips from going toward the ball. You have to move your hips laterally down your heel line and then push them up and left. If your hips go toward the target line you'll back up and out of it with your head. It shoots your arms out to the right and makes the shaft lay down way underplane.

My swing thought is keep your bunghole going left and keep it from moving toward the ball/target line. If your hips move toward the target line it can disrupt the hand path major. Finish feeling like the head is outside of the shoulders.

Agree strongly. IMO, there is a direct correlation between waist bend (posture), right elbow bend and left wrist bend at Impact. If any do not return to there Impact Fix conditions, the others will be forced to make compensations (reference 7-2).

I think this is why "pop" instruction talks about hips so much. If you don't move your hips in the proper manner you are shifting the theoretical "axis" all over the place . . . . even the most educated set of hands can't over come that. You can feel all the lag pressure in the world and have great alignments in the power package . . . but your vectors will end up being all skewed and the alignments of the face in relation to the path can be FLEATING at best.

So it is a hands controlled pivot . . . BUT . . . the pivot must comply to the intended line of compression and selected plane angle.

And all of this is predicated by where the weight is situated at address...towards the heels? On the heels the parallel shift is possible...towards the toetsies the correct shift is impossible? It is kinda like proper form on squats in that the weight stays through the heels?

Sort of . . . remember you are tilting your "axis" . . . which is sort of the spine . . . so the hips control the lower part of the axis and the upper part is to be basically fixed to have a centered motion. So the lower half . . . bottom of the axis is what moves in space. Inorder to not bob sway you have to move your hips in a certain way. The lever assemblies are connected to the axis so if you get it all whacked out it will monkey up the hand path etc.

but you can have your weight on your heels and still bob/pull out/goat hump by moving your knees/hips in a way that doesn't comply with a centered pivot.

What part of the book is the goat hump listed?

Start with 2-H-E-L-L. If that doesn't work try 7-2 #4 and 7-15 for starters. Actually, I think he means camel hump.

Thanks Drew. Bucket said he wants a shirt that says "Just Drew It".

Catchy isn't it ! Of course you put the shirt on right to left.

Actually they are all back-ordered. I have run out of golf shirts. Got any TGM Authorized Instructor Shirts with a big TGM Logo on the chest that I can borrow ???
