Mid body hands clubface alignment

[Vandal]

Thanks Daryl, though your post has me a bit confused. I must meditate on it.

I had a range session today that went pretty well, and I was experimenting with different set-ups. I took my left hand grip at low point and then put my right hand in there, moved the hands to the ball and went to mid-body hands -- the clubface was a bit closed. Very good results. Then tried the "modified" version where the hands are a bit more forward and the clubface appeared open (actually, I think it is square to the alternate line?) and had less good results. The problem is one I think you addressed in the last sentence. When trying to figure out what works best all the other things have to be working correctly or you'll never know for sure.

Next time I see ldeit it's something I'll make sure we go over. I've been working hard on the things he taught me and hope I'm getting it.

Let me simplify....

1) Take your hands to impact fix
2) Take your grip
3) Move your hands to a position where you can draw a straight plane line and don't worry about what the face looks like.

Do all 3 above and you'll be fine. The key is that a certain way you setup with your hands will "promote" a on-plane or off-plane takeaway. So setup with your hands that will keep you on plane where ever that is.
