Help on this

[joep]

Brian must be on the road so I thought someone out there could answer this or help on this.

When your on the downswing how many of you pull the handle down in the slot. Is it pulled down by your hands or do you use your body to pull it? Is it pulled toward the ball. I`m try not to come over the top,my right shoulder starts first...

What you are describing sounds like handle dragging to me. The pull should be out away from the ball and not down.

So my feet are left of target and I swing right of target to hit target, right? (i am r.handed) also I swing handle out to the right of target,

Jared thanks for your help

As far as what you feel like you should do, it depends. What's your normal miss? How do you hit your 3 wood?

 

[joep]

Accually. I hit my 3 wood best out of any club and have no idea why. I hit it around 190 I`m 80 yrs old, my driver doesnt go much further

I think the feel is going to depend on the person and the swing. Personally I feel kind of a passive fall of the arms in the transition followed by hitting the ball with the arms and hands with assistance from the body. Not sure if that's right, but it's how I play my best.

Hit your 3-wood great, got it. What's your normal miss then?
