Still at it over here. I found some very successful feels in the spring that cleaned up a fair bit of contact issues related to handle dragging (using your lead foot low point drill). I played some very good, if a little inconsistent, golf through t…

So I've been working on thoracic spine extension, which has probably one of the more difficult and initially very awkward movements to make. I think I kind of maybe started to feel something you said above "looking back behind over your trail should…

Thanks Tyler, I know I have struggles with spine extension that seem to just pair with my generally poor hunch-backed posture as well as some upper body sway in the backswing. I think that's going to be a longer term fix that I'm going to have to wo…

Still grinding away over here. Still trying to nail down some of the feels that produce the correct results, lots of ups and downs and lots of rabbit holes. As I continue to ingrain the proper feels for unhinge. I keep coming back to my lack of wipe…

Thanks, Tyler. I've posted a short video question below (no need to download, I think the web player should suffice) regarding flat spot and "up and in" handle movement. Essentially, at least how I feel it, early flat spot creation is due to continu…

Edit: Deleted all of my original post as outdated. I just went on our Summer guys' golf trip and had both the worst round of my life, followed up the next day by one of the best rounds of my life. I think I pieced a few conceptual things together an…

Thanks, Tyler. It's funny right before this I played my absolute worst round of golf in probably 4 or 5 years. It made me step back to try and diagnose. Your feedback about rotation of either (or both) of the arms got me watching and re-watching a l…

Still grinding away over here. I think I've finally figured out how to tame this pernicious lead arm pull that has been sabotaging my swing. Thinking back I've always had a bit of a late lead arm pull that always ends up stalling my chest rotation.

Edit: Original question was regarding supination and open club face if my weight gets on my toes. I think I answered my own question that I get blocks when I get on my toes from a combo of a higher shaft angle leading to open club face and shifting …

Apologies for my last post, it was kind of a long rambling train of thought mess. I've been working on connecting some more of your concepts and may have figured out something, I'm not quite sure. It's sort of a reconceptualization of how I grip the…

Edited out long rambling mess of train of thought.

It's been a while, though I haven't stopped working on things. I did have a minor epiphany regarding the wrists recently that I just wanted to confirm a couple things. I realized I wasn't ever getting the proper amount of unhinge because I think sub…

Edit: I've answered some of my own question I think. I've been working on new grip/release feelings. Part of it is drastically limiting how much wrist hinge (radial deviation) I get in my backswing. For this new feeling I basically try to feel that …

I ended up buying a small lesson pack from a local coach, as I felt like I kind of just hit a wall without any in-person eyes-on. I think I did get some useful feels out of the first lesson, mainly really focusing on getting far more left over the l…

No video this week, but I do have a question regarding positioning of the hands near impact. I think I've noticed something insidious that was somehow ingrained in my swing over time. Somewhere between P5 and P6, I seem activate my lead shoulder to …
