Its getting a lil long again today but today was the day I saw some very good results, I killed a 6 iron with half the effort of my old swing and it had the most beautiful trajectory that started out lower than I ever used to start and it just bored and climbed and climbed.... it was really a pro quality shot. Ive hit shots with the same final result but never with such a great streaming trajectory and hit many more 8irons and wedges with exactly the same result.

My swing was feeling good today for the first time since I started to make the changes yet looking at the swing, im still far on achieving all I want to do with it.

That is great Mathew. I know that you have worked hard on your backstroke. You said you were going to work on the downstroke next. What have you been working on in this area to get your improvement?
 
Looks like in the video you have choked down on the club quite a bit. Are you doing this for a reason? Not saying its right or wrong but was just curious.

Thanks[?]

Yeah, the heads on my clubs are especially heavy (which I like) and if you hold it at the end it feels a little out of control. Been doing more of this recently.

I've always been the same way. I like feeling that clubhead all through the swing. I tend to get too fast if I cant feel any weight on the end of that stick. Sometimes when i practice, I will turn the club around and grip it realy lightly on the shaft just above the hosel. I wil lthen point the grip end towards the ground and waggle it back and forth. Then grip the club normally and you can really get a sensation of the clubhead weight.

Very pleasant to watch. "Half" is obviously more than enough.

Easy said than done, though.

Thanks Guys for all the nice comments. No Snow.... hail, snow, rain, gale force winds where last week.....lol

Heres an old swing sequence when I first got my camera (digital im afraid...lol). I was kinda playing terrible back then. Over the summer my swing had gotten better than this film but it was obvious to me I had gone backwards from a film (analog) of myself during my mid teens.

Been thinking about Brians artical about the forces on this last time out for a little.

I think my body isn't using the aroundward force properly and some of the lag pressure is getting lost because im not pivoting correctly. I hit some wedge starting from 30 yards up shots trying to envision a more aroundward movement like Brian throwing the frisbee. Often imagining turning my left lat towards the target. It was also good because I became aware of the target again which I been starting to forget to do.

It might be a side note, but my wedges are getting better also as the swing filters down. I used to hate partial shots because I would always be in risk of screwing them up but now im starting to feel more confortable doing them.
 
Speaking of snow, I woke up to about 2 or 3 inches of the white stuff here in Fort Worth this morning.

Matthew, is that pony tail in the second video? :) Everything looks better on the most recent video, swing and hair! LOL
