Thanks for the info EdZ. I am swinging well but my problem is when i get on the course i have the impulse at the top of my swing to hit and i'm trying hard to fight it. I guess i need to just keep on persevering as i'm really liking the feeling of swinging. Going to take some time i think though before i can take it to the course.

Don't under estimate the power of humming a tune as you swing

Thanks, i can understand why that would help. Been reading tons of old threads. Found one that mentioned slowing the hands down and hitting it further. I have to say i was swinging on the range the other day and almost felt like it was slow motion but i was hitting my driver a long way and straight. Trying to kill it on the course kills my power and accuracy.

Not only that i find when i try and kill it i have a tendency to get the right hand on top of the sweet spot, particularly with the driver causing smothered hooks. Only when i swing slow enough to monitor my hands as opposed to downswing blackout, can i hit the driver solidly. I hit one bad tee shot on the course, anxiousness creeps in and blackout ensues. Drives me insane but at least i know where i need to go.

On the range, the result is not that important for you. So, you just allow the clubhead to have planty of time to accelerate and reach the right speed at the right moment, as a result of delayed release caused by not allowing it to release.

Now, you want/intend to hit it far and your body reacts to it and does the opposite, which cause not only an off-pathed clubhead, but also hurried acceleration, as a result of early release caused by forcing it to release.

So, you do what your mind tells you.

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.

Thanks bts, makes a lot of sense.

That part in a nutshell that describes it my problem...hurried acceleration.
