My swing has come a long way in a very short amount of time. And BTW that is from studying this wonderful website, posting, studying the yellow book, and spending lots of time on the driving range. I let my ball flight, divots, clubface mark, watching the spin of the ball when it lands tell me how I'm doing. I use dowells, a flashlight tool that I built with 2 mini mag lights and schedule 20 PVC piping where I have the lights on both ends to help check my plane. I look, look, look at my mirrors in the house so much my wife thinks "he's so vain....he probably think this golfswings about him...he's so vain" I am constantly working on something so I can get into my impact alignments and continue down the base of the plane line. I work on the finish swivel. The mind, at least mine, can't work on all of this at once, but over the last 2 months I really like my progress. Maybe, if I had an AI looking at my swing I could have avoided some of the deadends or redirect my energies more efficiently. However, I believe this approach has really helped me understand more. I believe TGM is the best out there and it amazes me everyday how Homer came up with this stuff using, laws, geometry, and physics and covered so much other very small exact components that can mean so much!! So, Compda, I feel I do swing. However, like I have mentioned if I don't clear my right hip, if I my power package is going around my body and my hips stop moving, & if I run out of right arm, I can't swing effectively in terms of sending the ball where I am trying to send it. If my hips stop moving and are simply a reaction, then I can't create the lag pressure on the #4 pressure point and I lose an entire accumulator. Now I will have only #2 & #3. I want a 3 barrell (#4, #2, & #3). The problems are loss of distance from slightly fat shots, flips to the left, bent plane lines, and even slices. So for today, I am going to work on my right hip movement at the very top at the range today. Sorry for the long post, but I look forward to yall's responses to my interpretation of TGM and my approach. Trane, Without video evidence and based on what you have said thus far, it seems to me you are on the right track... There is an AI based in Texas by the name of Chuck Cook (GSED). Next door to you in Arizona, there are 2 by the names of Denny Alberts (GSEB) and Greg Smith (GSEM). I have had the pleasure of meeting and talking to the last two gentlemen and recommend their expertise with no reservations. Please PM me should you need their contact details. __________________ The Singapore Slinger http://justintanggolf.blogspot.com comdpa View Public Profile Send a private message to comdpa Find all posts by comdpa
