null Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Lesson #8 Today I had the final lesson on my winter program and I am really happy with the progress I have made. I have really embraced the new concepts and movements I was taught and will continue to work to incorporate them into my swing. While my left leg action has become repeatable, today we identified a small issue that crept into my swing from time to time. Even though I am consistently posting up on my left leg, I sometimes let my rotation stall out after the post up which causes my right hip and upper body to never fully release and leads to some early extension. In the lesson today we really focused on continuing the rotation after straightening my left leg. The good part about this swing fault is that it is blatantly obvious when I stop rotating because I never pivot my back foot to the point where the top of my foot (shoe laces) face the target when I stop rotating. This is evident in the swing on the right, whereas with the swing on the left I properly finish my rotation. Overall, this lesson program was incredible. I have several things I will be continuing to work on in addition to the hip rotation. The main thing I will be working on is keeping my arms inside my chest during the backswing. Doing this will allow me to rotate more and not collapse my arms and hing my wrists to fake longer swing than I am actually taking. Other than that, it just comes down to consistency. I will keep working in my living room, in my basement, on my patio and at the range to make these new moves become second nature. I know that it won't be smooth sailing this season due to the limited time I have to practice and play, but there is no turning back. I will keep updating this thread with progress and I really appreciate everyone's comments and feedback I have been getting. I am more self motivated to change my golf swing than I ever have been before, but all of the support I get on here just adds more motivation!

Kwoodfield Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Looks great! Would love to see that right foot stay down a little bit longer.

null Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 In order to give my elbow and wrist a bit of reprieve, I have been doing a lot of club-less drill lately. I have been listening to some Golf Science Lab podcasts and learning more about skill acquisition and making swing changes and it seems a really popular technique is to do movements in slow motion over and over again. I have been doing a lot of weight shift, rotation and transition drills in this fashion and I can really feel my muscles engaging throughout the different movements. I will soon introduce holding a club to these drills (but still not hitting balls) and then will eventually transition into hitting balls. The biggest proponent of practicing a swing in slow motion to fully train the muscles and understand the movements your body is making?

Just be careful with advice on line YK. There are many reasons someone may be flipping or closing the face thru impact resulting in a hook, and it is impossible to know what it might be unless an instructor has eyes on the student and sometimes additional film they can slow down and show the student. And remember a cornerstone of teaching is exaggerating a move. For instance if someone is swinging well past parallel causing inconsistent contact, I often asked them to make a 1/2 or what I called a big pitch shot. With that in mind many students shortened their swing by a few inches, still swinging past parallel but when asked for feedback said something like "wow, that 1/2 swing felt weird. I could never hit the ball anywhere with that short of a a swing". ... Exaggerating a wrong move for your swing can really send you down a rabbit hole. Again one of the reasons I told my students to never repeat advice I gave them because that advice is tailored to their swing and their mental approach. So if you are inclined, feel free to try different advice as you might get lucky and something that worked for someone else may work for you, but just be careful you don't create a new problem trying to fix an existing one.

hartrick11 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 @jlukes This has been very useful, and really appreciate you sharing. I am working through a similar process on my end over the last few months (trying to fix a stall with the lower body rotation that leads to early release, flip, pull hook ) and it has often felt like 2 steps forward followed by 1 (sometimes 1.9) steps back. Seeing the written and video updates at each step along the way must be helpful for you to look back on as well, right? I have been keeping notes on my phone but I like what you've done better. I got an initial 3 lessons and have been working through drills since then on my own to try and save money. As you alluded to, with family and work obligations, the time spent on golf is never as much as you hope, so it's hard to commit to focused practice on a Saturday when that would be your only chance to get out on the course with your buddies, but I think another 6-pack of lessons would be money well spent for me in the long run...

It's definitely a bumpy ride, but if have been seeing more and more glimpses of the correct swing on the course over the first part of of the year. I'd love to to be able to practice more to speed up the changes along but that's just not realistic and thus I have to manage my expectations.
