Thank you J,
My problem was or is... sometimes my right hand gets under my left right after impact.(not flipping it but it gets under..thats another question) When studying the hinge actions I have no problem duplicating angled or vertical but struggle with horizontal. So I am trying to "feel" the proper feel. I will def try what you said. I feel like this should be so simple but its not.. for me at least.
Thanks again.

IMO, What Mr. Tillery talked about is EXACTLY what you need for that problem. I have the same issue and it causes me to flip. I will be working on feeling reckless just as YodasLuke taught J.
Hopefully you also caught the reference to YODA's video ARE YOU PREPARED TO ROLL ON THAT LINE" and also another on finish swivel. Great stuff that will help you tremendously. If the left forarm doesn't roll with a flat left wrist, the club will overtake the hands in the manner we struggle with.

The translation from mechanics to feel requires you to learn the mechanical alignment (look, look, look) and then observe the associated feel . You learn/practice mechanics but play by feel. It requires checking on a daily basis to ensure proper compliance. Every darn day is different.

Preparation for roll must take place at the top of the swing. If your right hand feels under, you are starting to turn the clubface to the ball too late. I have been working a lot on the finish swivel, here is what I am working on. 1. keep right forearm on plane at address, no low hands, which contributes to angled hinging for me. 2. catch rain with the left palm after both arms straight, while retaining axis tilt. 3. keep left thumb away from head at finish. In addition to Lynn's finish swivel video, watch Tomassello on hinging, and part three of the Dietrick letters.

Great stuff Dodger!
I'm not familiar with the Dietrick letters. Any chance you can shoot me those?
Thanks,

Golly that tape brings back memories of my time in that big room of tommy's at deer track golf & cc in myrtle beach. I like the video - very clear. In the last part where he holds the hips back and starts the arms down out toward first base is where I gave up on Tommy. He worked with me on that and it just didn't compute. It felt awkward. With axis tilt and that arm motion I could never find the plane line. Where was the tracing. I could never get back on course. He helped me alot but I never went back after that. Frankly it just felt weird to me. I was sitting down, squaring, from the TSP, pulling and that goofed that all up
Thanks for linking that video! That's great stuff. I've never heard anyone advocate leaving the right hip back like that. I just went out and hit a bucket of balls and it worked wonderfully. I think it may be a major key for my swing. On video my hip doesnt really stay completely back, but it stays back enough to help me get my right elbow more pitchy and more in front of my right hip. Awesome.
