Thanks for the inputs..... all good ones which validate that feeling as being "reasonable" for a swinger. Used it again today with really solid results.
I had that awful "chasing the club" feel on Friday, and hit many more pulls than I normally do, which sort of confirmed that I had that dreaded "over-the-top" motion working. To 12's point .... it felt like my lower body had "gone to sleep".
I hate to resort to "band-aid" swing keys since I've been studying TGM. This one seemed to work and I just wasn't sure it complied with the physics and geometry that we get from TGM.
Thanks compadres,

You need to check out the Video Section on the Address Routines. They are good. There is a section in I or II can't remember where the Start Down Waggle is DEMO'd . That should help you. Remember in the Pivot Train the Hips lead the shoulders. AND your Hip Slide should be PARALLEL with the your DELIVERY LINE . . . so out to Right Field with Angle of Approach Cross-Line procedures and Parallel to the Plane Line for On-Line procedures.
Now if your hips are Opening too quickly there may be a couple of things to try.
1. Even though your are swinging you may need to FEEL as if your Hip Slide is Cross-Line. That should help you with shoulders opening too quick.
2. You may want to try to put pressure down into the ground with your Right Foot (not just the left). That will help you keep from "over-committing" your right leg and hip. You may need to slow the hips down abit.
Not sure what thread it was in or who said it . . . but somebody said Yoda show them a drill where the put a dowel in the front belt loops running parallel to the plane line. So if you turn your hips too quick and don't slide your club will hit the dowel. Haven't tried that one out but sounds like a great way to get feedback.
Good luck. You aren't doing band-aids out here man. You are learning alignments.
