Had a session for shaft fitting today on Trackman. Sorry to not have figures to hand or video but had revelation from the numbers.
I have tended to pull hook and be very "dead" with my leg action. Short game has also been poor since I hurt my neck a few years ago.
Trackman numbers showed a 2 degree out to in swing path (if that is the right way for out to in) and a slightly closed clubface which was negated slightly by a heel hit and shallow AoA. I always thought I was under plane due to my occasional drop kick driver but it would seem I get actually get over the top and steep, seemingly panic halfway down, pivot stall and flip it.
Would it seem a good course of action to practice with a lie board a few inches behind the ball ( negate flip) and feel like I swing in to out (with a towel plane board in to out) as a drill?
Seems this would help my flip (miss lie board) and get me to drop the club to attack it from the inside?
Last lesson my pro had me on a large plane board with the feeling of going back on the plane board then dropping it under.
Tendency is to hit it fat doing this. Same with short game, on a plane board my hands want to come inside whilst the club wants to come off the plane board.
Any of you guys have any thoughts on this?
