I have been bending my irons and cut them off 1 inch, also I adjusted the lofts weaker my PW is now 49 degrees, Trying to get into a more Hogan like posture and find my thumbs under the shaft at the top of the back swing, so I can find the Harley.

If you stop it at the 35 second mark - where the clubshaft is just about parallel to the ground on the follow-through- you have that Couples/VJ/Phil - right hand off the grip except the fingertips- interesting.

Here I put in Slow-mo on the second video, since thats the one I lost the right hand grip on. I thought I was the only one that would know that..LoL I am trying hard, and you can see the improvements.

( Slow-mo )

Since you're experimenting, why dont you try getting your elbow on the shaft plane at address with a level left wrist too. It'll take some adjustments of all kinds to get em there. See the photo of Brian Gay for a reference. But that is where you need to be at Impact after all. Id be interested to see what happens once these Alignments are incorporated. Im thinking you'd be more like Hogan than before.

Best regards

Thanks O.B., I tried that awhile back, emailed LB about it and he talked about left arm extensor, along with a few others things, just did not feel it was for me after trying. I like the idea of what you, LB and the book says and I think it works very well with most people. As for me I am more set after upper body controlled face squaring and the extention of the right arm after low point. I play my ball at low point so you can see that me trying to extend the right arm and align it with shaft angle at address is not a good move for me.

Burley,

You won't stop steering and this is the Result.



The #1 Alignment is the Flat Left Wrist. Without this, every other component adjustment is a waste of time.

Read the EdZ Drills. Watch Yodas Finish Swivel Video Again.

Uncock the Left Wrist into the Ball. Do Not Roll, Do Not Swivel, do not pass Go. If you don't Uncock directly into the Aft Quadrant of the Ball, you will go directly to Jail.

Know what you mean about Hogan and the Right Arm being on plane at address. But in that photo of him above, you'll notice a shag boy out in the distance , right at the top of the Shaft Plane line you drew. That is his target. As such the camera is set up square to his foot line but his foot line, stance line is closed! Dramatically. So the camera is not square to his Plane Line or the flight of his ball.
This exaggerates the off the shaft plane look of his right arm. Not saying that is an Elbow Plane it isnt. But he isnt as far off it as he looks here.
