Golfbulldog,

Thanks for the link but it seems some problem at the moment, can't see.

You shall know what I meant for the long long time discussion regarding “head movement” topic not only within TGM as well as general instruction material. Johnny Miller commented that the only deliberate head movement should be a little swivel of the chin. Joe Dante also commented “right-and-downward pattern” during the downswing.

I was at driving range to see many real beginner hitting balls while I took a rest there. They move their bodies a lot, mainly lateral, I asked myself a question why they SWAY? Umh….. with the hope of using their upper body to generate power? I saw forward sway 10 out of 10. And me, not that much but still a sway…..I need to solve the problem…

Last week, I reviewed many materials and had a few practice sessions.

I also reviewed Greg Mchatton DVD while Greg gave a lesson to his student Julia, he noticed Julia with the same foreword sway problem. He asked Julia to have a neck surgery and explains that in the both arms straight follow though position, the head is indeed about 90 degree turn back….Greg also asked Julia to hold his head, “what is my head movement? ” “It’s just stay there.”

I went to range and did that, worked on basic motion first, then mainly with acquire motion. Look Look Look my finish, Check Check Check whether my head was turn back. I heard so many “Great shot” in my mind as well as from my friends. OK, it’s time for a total motion, and the result was….

I shoot 40 in the front 9 with 3 hole 3 putts last Sat. Yet, it’s time to putt and practice bunker more.

Please excuse my English as Chinese is our mother language. I think “Stationary” is not equal to “Still”
