Chances are good you are setup with a right wrist that is not level, and a right forearm that is too high. If you were to swing into a proper impact from those bad alignments, you would tend to hit a big push/push slice, so your body responds by trying to square the face with a high right shoulder lunge.

Get that right forearm set properly at impact fix - check your flying wedges in a mirror. Feel like you are skipping a rock to get that right shoulder down plane - on a lake that is 'tilted'

Great post Ed.

That lake is tilted on the same angle as the plane.

Thanks
Thanks for the advice. I will check into this. BTW and FWI, my recurring problem shot is indeed a high push (very rarely a slice) to the right.

Skipping Rocks With EdZ

I like this a lot, Ed. Your 'tilted lake' analogy with its inclined plane of motion not only controls the Right Shoulder, it also gives accurate direction for the Thrust. It is far better than the conventional 'rock-skipping' analogy with its 'horizontal lake.'
