Sean O'Hair reminds me of me back in the day with...less compression...less hair...less height! Always fidgeting...always tinkering. Ironically, it took the most exhaustive book on golf stroke mechanics ever compiled to put me on a better path! HK My "mob" as Homer termed it is less unruly these days. If I have a particulary bad day I know that my alignments are off so I have to go back to the net, the mirror etc. Start with 12-5-1...graduate to 12-5-2...I have a rule: if I start thinking about sequenced releases, snap loading etc. on the range I make it a mechanics session by hitting nothing but basic motion shots (not my favorite way to hit a bucket of perfectly good range balls) On the course I try to approach it from a NO, or GO mind set (learned this from Tomasi's book The 30 Second Swing.) Essentially this is shot selection based on the situation at hand factoring layout difficulty, weather, personal feel etc. I focus on the straight plane line, clubface alignment and "catching" the lag with my #3PP.
Well Okie, You’re on a roll. Two for two.

I don’t want to bust anyone's bubble, but……, for those that understand TGM, the difference between a good day and a bad day, is only a few yards. Of course the score card may be very different.

For the rest of Golfdom, it’s “wow, man, did anyone see where that one went?”. "I didn't flip my thing at the whatyacallit position".
