Try one-handed swings... both hands; that's fun!! 3 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to post

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I have started with the back and forward swings in a daily basis this week, I have not gone to the course yet, but overall I feel a little longer on the back swing and fell like I am opening up more to the target on the follow thru. 1 Quote Cut Draw Giveaways 2020 Bag Boy Chiller Cart Bag Official tester MGS Hard Rock Challenge 100 swings challenge MGS Fantasy football league Unofficial - Cobra SpeedZone Xtreme Unofficial Review - Honma TR21 4 Wood by xOldBenKenobiX Work in Progress...

Try one-handed swings... both hands; that's fun!! I am trying to figure out the left hand swing, I so a short clip of someone using it left handed to help them develop a longer back swing, I am trying to apply that but without bending my elbow at the top and focusing on turning my back to the target as much as I can, I am just having a hard time keeping my head still looking at the ball. Amazing enough, I found an old video of Tony Finau using it for warm up. 2 Quote Cut Draw Giveaways 2020 Bag Boy Chiller Cart Bag Official tester MGS Hard Rock Challenge 100 swings challenge MGS Fantasy football league Unofficial - Cobra SpeedZone Xtreme Unofficial Review - Honma TR21 4 Wood by xOldBenKenobiX Work in Progress...

Have orange whip. Mainly tempo/warm up as others have stated. One drill an instructor had my son do was get in address position, then still bent in address put feet together, swing to top of swing and then without starting downswing step with lead foot out past normal width and then swing the trainer. Instructor said drill is what is good for creating positive angle for driver swing (kind of swing up vs down like an iron). My coordination was not that good so I did not like it but my son seemed to get the hang of it. I like to just do steady warm up swing and get loose with it. 2 Quote Link to post
