View Single Post #5 09-19-2006, 11:50 AM rich_allen Junior Member Join Date: Jul 2006 Posts: 21 Back to the range last night and this time I limited the balls to one bucket (140);, I noticed right away my left hand is really what's tightening up which in turn is causing my left forearm muscles to get tight. I don't know how to stop hanging on to the club so tight!!! I tried to concentrate on using PP#3 and tracing without really clamping onto the club but nothing seems to work. The good news coming from all of this is how much farther I carry each club using the down and OUT swing method. What took me a 7 iron to reach was only taking a 9 and could have even reached it with a wedge. (totally amazing) If anyone has any insight how to stop griping the club so hard please let me know. I appreciate all the replies to my question. Rich rich_allen View Public Profile Send a private message to rich_allen Find all posts by rich_allen
