ARRGHH,I felt the dark side return today...PP#3
LAG---YES
YOu being an ex pro boxer, Id tend to think that hitting is right for you. Active arm extension being like a jab. Did you dance around the ring? Wonder if it will relate to your pivot. Maybe boxing is the sport most like golf? Weird thought.
Good point OB,that is actually a real problem for me,boxing I was always weight to toe,where as golf probably leans to heels more so...I guess
I can see that, a boxers weight towards the toes like a runner, in the direction that you are going, punching. Whereas golf being rotational you need it more centered. But we also need our weight left at impact for most shots. Sort of like taking a jab to your extreme left across your body, with the right shoulder down low close to what you are aiming at (the ball) and then extend right through it. The right shoulder being like a launching pad. Some hitters have more pivot than others, some boxers dance, some drag there back foot around the center of the ring like Norton. Either way they can hurt you or compress the ball.
You know VJ Trolio was an amateur boxer, golden gloves if memory serves me right. Luke packs a punch on the course too. He's lights out long from a pretty steady platform. He'd be a back foot dragger I bet if he was a boxer maybe, although he was a runner in school.

I'm a lover, not a fighter! That's why I carry the .44 magnum with a 7 1/2" barrel. The game's called Ted wins; there's no fighting. Yoda was a little freaked out when he rode in my car for the first time and saw my pea shooter.

This is the only time Ill think of you and Correy Pavin at the same time.
He had a pea shooter according to Ernie. You acknowledge yours. I think they're a little different though.
Luke,Im pretty relaxed about takeaway and startdown waggle,my 2nd Question for you is
Is the startdown all tricep initiated and at what place in downswing does R/shoulder begin its downward journey
Hope it makes sense..Thanks in advance

No. Don't straighten the Right Arm from the Top.
You want to Deliver the bent Right Arm into Release. Straightening later is better. I Drag the club in Start Down via the Pivot, then I Drive the Club through Impact with the late straightening of the Right Arm.
The immediate straightening of the Right Arm from the Top is weak. You want the Right Arm to be fully straight at Follow Through (2 feet past the ball). If you begin the straightening from the Top and (best case scenario) your Right Arm becomes straight at Follow Through, you have spread the straightening of the Right Arm throughout the entire Downstroke. It equates to a large Release Interval. More often than not, when the straightening starts at Top, the Right Arm becomes fully straight prior to Impact. If anyone tells you to straighten the Right Arm from the Top, hand them their sign .
On the other hand, if you straighten the Right Arm as late as possible, you've compressed the straightening of the Right Arm into a small amount of time. This equates to a small Release Interval. If you have the need for speed, this is the stroke you want.
