Do you look further back for the longer clubs? Thats what I would expect but in this case it was a 3 iron and I was looking in front.
I agree that 5 days before the match is no time to be making changes but I also think that it is only a small margin that is stopping me hit really good G.O.L.F. shots.

Don't wear Pink Golf shirts anymore unless you wear a skirt. I don't know about the Brits, but the USA has banned them, except in California. I don't think that the Australians wear Pink either.

Hey Styles, nice swing and great impact position - definitely a TGM swing there! I'm late into this discussion but the thing that jumped out at me was some loss of posture in the downswing - there is some momentum going towards the ball with your hips. I guess this jumped out at me because it's what I'm working on right now - keeping the tush line against the pane of glass. I think Daryl's explanation indirectly or directly says this too, although he mentioned the right hip - another way of thinking about it is the left hip getting back after transition. I'm not sure if this would cause a push block but to me it would make sense.
Kev, you are a Pro. Daryl and I are Moe's. And not of the Moe Norman variety. More like Curly, Moe and Shemp. Mike O is Shemp, Bucket is.............
So let er rip.
True, I am a pro, but you are the guys who understand the mechanics of the machine. I have always been more of a "coach" than a "technician." I have been lucky enough to have some success as a player and as a coach, but now that I need to make a living teaching, I better become proficient in both areas.
I feel TGM is THE way. I believe in it. Yoda is THE MASTER of TGM IMHO. You guys are MASTERS of relating the things that he would teach us himself if time permitted.
You guys are THE BEST, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate all your help.
To finish my coaching / technician story. I found that from personal experience once you lose what once was a "natural" motion, you had better be a "technician" or you WILL NOT get it back. TGM has allowed me to get some of it back, now I have to get really carried away with something silly, exersize and stretching.OH MY GOD, THE HUMANITY!
Kevin

Your Left Upper Arm is sticking to your body. After impact, your Clubhead outraces your Arms. Then you Bend your Left Wrist. Then you Chicken-wing your Left Arm.

Stop reading this stuff Styles! Put your mind on your pressure points and feel the Lag Pressure. Sustain the Lag Pressure via a smooth constant rate of acceleration.
Feel it, play with it. We'll ruin your swing another day ok? Are you playing Jerry 1967 on the weekend by chance? You've got a pro quality impact. You lagster you. Eye of the Tiger Rocky. Eye of the Tiger. Blan, blanblan blan, blanblan blan, blaaaaan..............

You need to increase your Wrist Throw. Keep that Right Palm up during Uncocking. Don't try to Roll into the Ball. Do a Hard Uncocking of the Left Wrist into the Primary Lever. Try it.
