This posture part puzzles me. I just don't get it. I'll look up vj's post & see if it becomes any clearer.

I wrote " my interpretation of vj's set up advice" I would like this to be cleared up also. I took vj's post to mean that he wanted a forward lean of the spine over the ball to be created by bending over like a jack knife from the hip sockets rather than a humpty back hunch of the shoulders to get over the ball. The spine is bent some from the shoulders anyway. So I took his post to mean that he did not want any extra artificial hunching going on to get more over the ball and you set up like you should in other golf stokes by bending at the hip sockets. With luck vj will clear this up.
