He just seems so efficient.

Also can you lead me to any links or vids where I can learn to work on a basic hip/ pivot action for a swinger new to TGM?
I would recommend Brian's motion to anyone, Swinger or Hitter.

Body Control (9-1) -- Pivot
  • Stationary Head (2-0-A-1).
  • Stable Feet (10-17-C) and Knees (10-16-C).
  • On Plane Shoulder Turn (10-13-D)
  • Delayed Hip Turn (10-15-B)
Clubshaft Control (1-L-A)-- Plane Line Tracing
  • Right Forearm On Plane at Address.
  • Right Forearm On Plane through Impact.
Clubhead Control (1-L-B) -- Lag Pressure.
  • Loaded by the Pivot.
  • Delivered by the Arms.
  • Guided by the Hands.
Clubface Control (1-L-C) -- Flat Left Wrist and Hinge Action.
  • When Centrifugal Force drives the Clubhead -- Swinging -- the tendency is toward Horizontal Hinging.
  • When Muscular Thrust drives the Clubhead -- Hitting -- the tendency is toward Angled Hinging.
Regarding Pivot Drills, I recommend the MacDonald Exercises #1-4 and #10-11: http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/forum/s...ead.php?t=4435.

Also, selected portions of the From Mechanics to Feel videos in The Gallery:http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/gallery...ry.php?cat=509.

Finally, when available, Disc #2 -- Drills -- from the soon-to-be-released Blake/Trolio Series.
