Hi Eric,
I like to think the two ideas compliment each other. The Jackson 5 is the lateral shift of the pelvis before the rotation begins. The timing of it is discussed more in the two click backswing idea. Ideally, the shift to the lead foot will l…

Yea, I'd say it's more of a sequencing issue and getting your core/bottom ribs more open earlier. It looks like the arms are in front of the right shoulder, but because the spine is not open enough, the arms are behind the golf ball more than you'd …

It looks to me like it's mostly sequencing. From the behind camera, it looks like your arms aren't too far behind your body. Maybe slightly, but not much. But it looks like at halfway down your hips are pointing behind the ball. Perhaps you can post…

Hi Garret,

If the arms are getting stuck, I'd first want to identify when they are getting stuck in order to determine a plan of action. Also, the combo of stuck and steep could be a different solution than just stuck. Do you have a couple videos …

Hey Zach,

Left arm structure is definitely looking better. This picture in the first clip was my favorite. How's it feeling? Less hooky? I heard a few positive reactions on the video clips, does it have a distinctly different feel?

Happy holidays,…

Hi David,

I like the overall arm structure in the follow through, you do a good job with not letting the arms bend/collapse. But compared to the ball, the arms are a bit back halfway down. You'll see the slightly early cast in the video clip. Chec…

The tricky thing is that the forearms stop rolling or keep rolling, can vary in how it feels depending on the golfer. They are both correct feels, depending on who needs it, which is why you see both on Instagram and youtube. The key is figuring out…

Hi Douglas,

Thanks for the warm endorsement. Comments like yours are really motivating. It pushes me to try and make the site easier to use and digest. I know it's a lot, but I'm thrilled when I hear that you figured out a way to feel a body-drive…

Here are a few bunker shots I hit yesterday. These were about 15 yard shots with a high soft trajectory.

Feeling powerful in a 9 to 3 is definitely a learned skill for most. One thing that might help would be trying a swing holding a ball, balloon, or buck in between your arms. It would help you feel a little more arm connection which would make you fe…

It looks like it's trending in the right direction (especially the down too long portion), but I'd still like to get a better 10 position. I think a feel that might help your lead arm is feeling like the arms are squeezing together during impact and…

Good question. I'll ask around this week and I'll collect a few swings with my own bunker game.

But I think one of the important pieces of information is that more extension causes you to skull them. That tells me that your body position is likely…

Here's a graph of Grant Waite's trail arm. You'll see in transition that the blue line is decreasing during the first part of transition. When the blue line is moving negative, the arm is pronating. So there is some truth to the idea of starting the…

Hi Doug,

I like your attempt to put together a plan. Let me try to help with the diagnosis.

To me, it looks like in the full-swing version you go into more early extension than weight shift when you try the Jackson 5. It might be easier to see t…
