G'day Toolish,

The draw is pretty slight (hard to say but a couple of metres at most on a drive?), mostly straight. Definately not the aim down the right rough and draw it back into the middle type draw.

Cheers

Do you "Push" the ball when Chipping and/or Pitching Shots?

Do you Finish your Total Motion Iron shots or do you stop short of fully finishing?

I swing through to a full finish, not trying to hit a 'punch' type shot if that is what you are asking?

If i feel like i'm forcing a horizontal hinge then i'm ok - without thinking about "you've got to roll" then out comes the pushes

Does this mean i'm manipulating my hands or just trying to overcome subconcious steering?

I'm only trying to isolate the Pivot as a possibility of where the fault may originate. If you easily finish your swing, then the pivot is probably ok. But your Pitch shots are ok. Hmm? Try pitching 20,40,50,60,70, and 80 yards with your Wedge working up from Acquired Motion to Full Motion. Try to isolate when the Pushing or Blocking occurs.

The pushing occurs from acquired motion to the full swing if i don't conciously focus on closing the face... say from 20m and out. Chips and shorter shots are ok probably because the face doesn't open up as much on the backstroke.
