There is no doubt that TT knew his stuff, and so do you. Thanks for the homework! I will do it. I tend to agree with the shoulder/hip connection. The big killer in my swing it when the right shoulder stops its down plane journey too soon.
not the best footage, but I just got away with this one. I had just enough right elbow bend to keep it in the general vacinity of my target. I have a tendency to get a little sweepy with the release. I lose a little #1, which in turn changes the relationship of the #2. I have pretty good mittens so my hand speed compensates well. I am working hard on delaying the #1 acc. For me trigger delay is mostly about the quality of my shoulder acceleration. The tendency to run out right arm as a youngster causing pull-draws, pulls and pull-hooks prevented me from missing cuts on the Hooters Tour! God bless that pull!

Thanks for sticking to your Tommy Guns!
Very nice swing Okie!
Do you still have a lot of pulls? Only thing I see is that with your grip position (which I like), if you get the right hand a touch too high (over) at address, it is harder to keep the right shoulder going down.
I wouldn't change the grip, but just make sure your right arm is very relaxed and the right wrist is level before startup.

Dang Edz how simple is that? Thank you for the kudos as well. I pretty much hate my golf swing! So do you think the right hand is rolled and uncocked? That makes great sense to me. Thank you for that. I really appreciate your expertise. I am amazed at your willingness to help pro bono.
Thanks OB
I drive load. As for the barrels I am pretentious enough to attempt all four. I cannot for the life of me relegate the right arm to passivity, I am not that thrusting. To be honest trying (I stress trying) to use them all has impacted accuracy as much as it has power. Power golf is good golf.With hitting you have to be aware of that the right elbow is doing. That is true for swinging as well but in a different way. To me (and perhaps just me)non automatic sweep releases can add a variable of inconsistency. As I age my hands will slow down like everything else (except for the growth of unsightly hair in my ears)Like everyone else I want something for nothing i.e. automatic snap releases!
Shoulder throw for sure. I do not have to worry about the right arm straightening...it does that all by itself it seems. I have struggled with single wrist action in that I tend to get too shut faced with it (I overdo the shaft lean at address at times)
From 175 I used to in between a 7 and a 6, now it is just a 7

The closed club face can be the perfect companion to Angled Hinging. Angled Hinging is a natural product of Thrusting. Your pivot is very good which in the absence of Thrusting will tend you towards ......Horizontal Hinging and a pull maybe?
I only say this cause a while back you mentioned "resisting CF" or something like that. Are you trying to not straighten your right arm?
Man, Im wondering if you could hit that 7 iron 190 with a little Right Arm Throw added in there after the shoulder throw. You should send Luke some film, he's a guru master at fine tuning the impact zone, throws, delayed release, hand speed vs clubhead speed etc.
You are down to the finishing touches Id say. Well done. Forget about all those pretty little #2 Angle guys out there and their Snap Releases. God has graced you with a whole lot of compatible components .........dont mess them up. A later Release? For sure, fine and dandy, see Luke.
Oh oh I think Im about to get kicked out of the Swingers Emergency room. "Code blue. We got some thrusters in the Swingers lounge area."
Yeah, I just remembered that this was a swinger's thread! Sorry, but I just don't care about threadjacking anymore Shut is good for an angled hinge, too shut is good for nothing. OB, I am not trying to keep my arm out of it, just improve the timing of when it does its thang...you dig? That is where the shoulder throw comes in handy Edz may have just given me a golden nugget. The earlier the right elbow get into the mix, the fashionably later it will come to the party. I feel that my right knee should work in a little more towards my left, and that there should be some weight on the pad beneath my big right toe. As a result, not a cause. My goal is to eliminate the left side, outside of the vertical hinge option! And do so while hitting it as hard as I can. As you suggest hitting is all about manhood!
Gotta insert a smiley face if you want to say things like that! What can we say, swingers are short a barrel! Mississipians would all agree that testosterone levels rise once you cross the state line! But as far as machismo is concerned we all still have a lot to learn from our friends down under!
