1. as per Mandrin's post above - FO view shows that your hips do not slide forward at all while your upper body & head moves laterally to the target at transition (CoG shift); is it done purposedly, and, if yes, what advantages are of such an action comparing to e.g. Hoganesque hip slide CoG shift ?
My hips move forward from frame 5 to 6.
Hogan's moved much more.
Hogan was a better player than me, and was 60 lbs. lighter and practiced golf all day.
I'd copy his hips.
2. Your head moves up at the end of the downswing which appears as a compensation for a too bend initial posture (too big spine angle); are you doing it because of your body flexibility limitations and it is something that should not be copied and we should not pay any attention to it ?
It does not through the swivel.
Absolutely does NOT!
I ask those two questions since I always believed that those two things should be rather avoided in a golf swing...
What?
If I could get everyone I teach to hit is as well as I do, I be richer than Bill Gates.
Maybe I should take my camera out, put it behind a pin from a couple of different distances, and hit some shots.
Don't let the smooth taste fool ya.
