Whip

Youre a good swinger already. Id suggest you do 450 putts on the rug from about 4' while your watching tv. But if you must ...how bout 50 non stop Wild Bill Melhourne type continuous full swings to work on MOTION, balance, lag. Brush the grass or rug in both directions , feel lag in both directions, swing the hands and let the club go in your tension free wrists (but with a firmish grip) the hands are just clamps. Feel the pressure points, all of 'em. Its the grass whip lesson , similar to the MacDonald exercises ....its very old, out of style but believe me it works.

I was starting to loose it the mid am qualifier and did a few of these and blammo it all came back. Made it home without leaking any more oil , qualified . Melhourne gave Hogan lessons so I imagine he did them......well actually I believe he did them for 20 minutes in the locker room prior to heading to the practice tee.

PS The lag and drag you feel when doing this is profound. Theres something about the reverse of directions that removes your ill founded golf intentions. You can hit shots like this, magical shots.......if you tape it I bet you see a slightly later release point too!! More ground/up in the Downswing Sequence. It sort of tricks your golf mind into taking a break. Brushing in both directions is key. Strike the match in both directions so to speak, lag in both directions.
