I was having the same issue as well and Ted and I talked about it stemming from having too fast of a startdown. That would throw everything out of sequence and then the OTT/steer move would come into play. From my experience the driver usually has this problem because as golfers we tend to get impulsive and really wanting to kill that driver...whereas if we would just stop being impulsive and we would slow that startdown we would wind up hitting the ball further with accuracy.

I use the #1 PP as well. What helped me was sensing the pressure in that #1 PP. I found that if that pressure is at its maximum at impact, my speed would be at its maximum at impact as well. When I got too fast with the startdown, my pressure was at its maximum at the startdown. So for me...pressure = speed. And you want the speed at impact, not at the startdown. When I started concentrating on speed, I couldn't get that max speed at impact with any consistency. When I focused on pressure, that's when the consistency came into effect.

Now when I mean 'maximum pressure', I am not talking about gripping the club harder. I'm getting that pressure of the #1 PP up against that left thumb by thrusting the right arm.

Just some thoughts from a fellow hitter.
