Good stuff. I will give the rhythm drill a shot tonight and work on some hinge and holds and see if it unlocks a feel/swing thought.
Thank you!

I have an arm dominant swing, I am working hard to use the body to lead my arms and then club. I've had some successful range sessions where I truly do feel the effortless power but can't get it to stick too well. My personal assessment is I have tr…

Turns out it wasn't so much the body pivot, it was a need for more right side bend, but not at my hips, more in my upper body/spine. Happens more on wedges when I am not doing the hip bump/jackson 5. Using a pic of Viktor Hovland which demonstrates …

I think I figured it out playing yesterday. The cue to use the chest for me creates a lunge with my upper body which gives me an OOT type of swing, and especially when trying to swing in-to-out it creates a heel/shank. I need to use the body and che…

I had a problem with heel contact when I was working on my in to out which originally lead me to this site, but the turtle shell helped me immensely to the point where I get almost too much toe contact.
I've made great progress on my wipe while sw…

I feel like my swing is really coming along. Focusing now on using legs to power the swing. I feel like when I drop from the top of the swing to delivery position all the tension I built up through my core and glute is lost and then I try to regathe…

Parallels to the golf swing are pretty obvious. Thought it might be appreciated here, sharing for the others that like golf and football.

My swing is really coming together from the information learned on this site. I don't have time to go to the range and play because of family duties, not complaining, but I have a mat and a net in my spare room to hit balls into. My understanding of…

Good intel thanks Tyler. I don't see the link to the video but all good your explanation makes sense.

I'm getting better at shallowing the ball but now I am having some low point issues and hitting behind it with irons and even with driver I've hit the ground sometimes.
Pretty sure when hitting the irons when I apply the axis tilt I am hitting it …

Learning from your videos on how to shallow properly by supinating the the right forearm in the downswing, as opposed to unhinging the wrists, in combination with those other videos I previously shared really helped properly conceptualize the shaft …

Found a pretty good video on here of what I was looking to understand for anyone interested:

I feel like I have an improper mental model of the shaft plane through the swing.
Are there any feels or videos that help conceptualize swinging the club head out from horizontal P6 to P7 impact? I feel like that would help.
I'm beginning to feel…
