No coincidence that your shoulder tilt and the amount of respective accumulator lag is way different. As soon as your axis tilt starts to kick in your accumulators are going to "dump" . . . Left shoulder down longer . . . boot on the wall . . . go forward . . . swing arms down faster. Film . . . Film . . . Film.
Nice pic comparison . .. Lots to learn here. Good job.
Can you compare the next two frames with the same three cats?

I tried to make myself the same size for context...you can see I am starting to dump it earlier but I still get to impact in a pretty good position. I love Lee's position, is there any better?

gmb,
Your problems in Zones 2 and 3 (Arms and Hands) are largely the result of problems in Zone 1 (Body/Pivot). Simply stated, you're sliding (with no turn) through impact, big time. Draw a vertical line from Miller's left heel through his left shoulder. Do the same on the photos of Trevino and yourself. Notice how far your left hip is in front of that line. Notice also how both Miller and Trevino are rotating their left hips behind that line.
I've PMed Bambam and asked him to draw the line for us. If anyone on line can get there first, have it!
Any idea why the dancing feet / reverse C was so popular in the 70's? It looks kind of flimsy to me compared with modern footwork. But I guess they have to do it because of.... well, that's the part I am wondering about.
Everytime I see this it seems to go hand in hand with longish hair and 70's dress code

Ah BerntR, how much time do you have? This should be a thread of its own with all of the guys who played back then, like myself, posting photos. I even have film, super 8.
Maybe on a dare or something. A fund raiser?
I see some nice footjoys on Miller, are those Etonics on Lee? Remember those beauties? They weighed about twenty pounds each. I never had Etonics but my dad sure did. The Squire was wearing a nice pair when I met him at Marco Island.
Congrats with the progress. The paradox of golf is that it only gets easier the better you get.

Actually I'm a rather busy person. Waisting far too much time on LGB and TGM these days. But I have worked hard for several years in a row so I don't feel bad about it. Besides, I am hooked at the moment and enjoying it.

Time spent actually THINKING about your golf alignments and procedures is ALWAYS time well-spent. Time spent WRITING about what you THINK is worth ten times more.
In lieu of that thinking and writing, most people just 'hit balls'.
It takes someone special to make 'hitting balls' meaningful.
