Swing Help Please

[KevCarter]

... of all my friends at LBG.

You were ALL correct, and your combined help has put me back on track.

I started with the drill given me by THE KING OF DRILLS, EdZ. One swing, acquired motion, shooting pain in my left knee, just as O.B. suggested, physical problem.

I flared my left foot as GMBTEMPE and Bond, James Bond 007 suggested and tried the drill again. WOW, no pain and I could pivot around my left leg. It's going to take a little time, and a little work, but now I have a plan.

Thanks very much everybody!

I owe you all an adult beverage, shaken, not stirred!

Kevin,
I have discovered over the years that I have to vary the amount of flair (sometimes more) depending on the degree of tightness in the front knee. This has worked well for me and as the saying goes, "Sometimes you just have to do whatever you have to do".

Kevin, with the left foot flared open, try to feel your right leg stays straight on the downswing. Feel there is a clubhead attached to the outside of your right toe. Bury the clubhead in the ground leading edge first with a straight right leg. I got that tip twenty years ago and it still helps me.

Kev,without seeing your full swing its a tad hard ,Im picking your pivot begins very late in your "HIT",I was doing something similar but trained my way out of it by placing a ball under my right heel and beginning my swing from impact fix (practice only)hope it helps Brownman
