Often resulting in an outside startup, angled hinging or even a dead shut clubface, over rotation of the shoulders, a too steep shoulder plane etc etc. Not saying your doing all of this by any means. The golfer tending towards hand manipulation to get things back on Plane. You'd take it back on line if you bent your right arm earlier, ideally accompanied with a little fanning and no left side push away. An RFT in other words. If there is no right elbow bend there is no Magic of the Right Forearm. Extensor Action helps in all of this. Its weird stuff but when you get it you'll never go back. Make it a right sided game, even if you are swinging. You look like a good player, hope this helps. It took me 2 years to get the left side push away out of my game and I dont miss it at all. Id been doing it since I was 12 years old too. Somebody somewhere, dont remember who, gave me some advice about a One Piece Takeaway that I mistook to be a Left Side Pushaway with Two Stiff Arms. Man did that waste a lot of my time. Rock the Triangle is one way to attack putting maybe but not Major Basic Strokes. Ill never get those years back. Dont freeze your right elbow in Startup. Start with it soft and bent and on plane, with a little EA providing some structure, clear the right hip and then RFT baby. Thoughts about rolling or cocking will be a distant memory, after a little training. Yea, I am overdoing the cocking motion with my hands to try and introduce left wrist cocking into my swing, honestly I dont think I have done it for a long time. The bending of the right arm and the pivot, getting rid of that left side push is going to be key. How many swings have been ruined by hearing you need to get that full extension with your arms going back? Totally agree with that one piece takeaway, I think its misunderstood a bit. I am going to work on that bending of the right arm now that I have a better grasp. I will say for me it seems like its very key that the right him moves straight back, maybe even a little back and forward in order to give myself the room I need. gmbtempe View Public Profile Send a private message to gmbtempe Find all posts by gmbtempe
