Thanks for the lessons on pivot this past weekend. It is now very clear to me after working on the Bob MacDonald drills that I have never quite had the proper pivot.
I've been working on the narrower stance and adding some more wrist cock. Additionally, my right forearm take away is getting me on plane instead of under.
I went out after work with our club champion and by the time we finished up, my driver distance had closed to within 15 yards of his. I've never been closer than 30 yards behind him in the past.
I have been teaching the 'MacDonald Exercises' (Golf, Bob MacDonald, 1927) since Paul Bertholy showed them to me in the summer of 1982. The exercises -- illustrated elsewhere in these pages -- were then 'only' 55 years old.
Now they are 80 years old.
To these I have added the precision alignments I learned from Homer Kelley and The Golfing Machine. Does that make them mine? Naah. Only more precise.
