This thread is FANTASTIC
Long time lurker who saw Lynn about 15 months ago.
I had a long way to go, but got a foundation that would help me get there. What I've struggled with and realized with this thread is I am a hitter through and through. The extension of my right elbow as I move to impact fix is absolutely my downswing key.
What I didn't realize I was struggling with was where my hands went. I read Clampett's book and forever had been told about tracing the delivery line. Reading this thread and that I should focus on the angle of approach and cover that instead of tracing the plane line made a HUGE difference in my stroke.
At the range yesterday and on the course today, I was consistently striping the ball without the thin shots or pulls I fought before. It was like my swing had a natural path. I'm still going through the 'rub the stomach while patting the head' adjustment to the new delivery path being a subconscious thought, but this was huge.
I feel SO much more prepared for my next session with Lynn. Unfortunately our schedules don't mesh in January. The good news is I picked up Atlanta as a territory, so I should be able to get out there on a much more regular basis.

Ed,
Just because I'm teaching in Orlando the week of your Atlanta visit doesn't mean you have to forego help in The Swamp. Drop Ted Fort a PM and arrange a lesson with him. Nobody knows Hitting better than Ted, and you will definitely benefit from his instruction.

There's nothing like getting the vote of confidence from THE MAN, HIMSELF. I appreciate it and would be glad to help.
