Getting threre slowly

[Mike O]

Just past the ball the rt. wrist has flattened and thus the shaft has out raced the left arm . Gregg Mchatton demonstates proper rythm.
Mike's aiming pt. should be moved further forward.

Denny,
Some good areas to dig in a little deeper. To start off- help me clarify a couple of items.
1) When you say the right wrist has flattened- do you mean a little, alot, completely?
2) Do you have a link in regards to Gregg Mchatton demonstrating proper rhythm, so we can compare the difference?

Nice! Love the stability in the right leg angle and the powerful windup.

hg,
Thanks for your help and work!

Mike O the swing looks great however it may be non automatic but can you explain why you backstroke is so slow and deliberate. As a swinger can you actually load the shaft like that. Appreciate your comments regarding it.

Good questions!

Question #1- why so slow and deliberate? We'll it's not a perfect world and as I correct problem areas in my swing - over swinging etc.- it just happened to be the avenue that corrected the most problems the easiest for me. (Who knows - may not look like that next year!)

Question #2-As a swinger can you actually load the shaft like that? No, not at the top/end of the backswing- but downstroke loading YES. At least that's how I would describe it in my movement.

The reason I thought those were good questions is that - I would agree that the backswing is bordering on or is unusually slow- compared to the majority. So while solid- the pace of the backswing does "catch your eye"- at least mine and looks like yours also.

It's a process - so while the slow backswing eliminates alot of issues for me- over time I may find that those issues are gone and the slow backswing causes it's own problem(s) and then at that time I'll speed it up - without having all the old issues from the past. However, as I've right now I'm hitting the ball so well I don't see that happening- only time will tell though.
