Just another take-away

[Little Brit]

I have tried all types of take-away. Recently been doing RFT. but find it sometimes pulls me off the ball. Today I used a left arm take-away, left hand rolls under the right, creating a perfect FLW. and keeping me much more stable coiling onto my right heel. Stopping my overswing.

Do you think this is a viable option. I have never heard of anyone doing it this way? or are there inherent problems?

Brit....

It is VERY viable.

Many champions throughout golf history have employed a similar "feel."

Just remember this:

Does it make the CLUB do what you want it to do?

If the answer is yes—no matter what anyone says—do it!

 

[Little Brit]

That's good

It worked well for me today. Hopefully it will continue to be good.

I will have to check on video to see what it looks like.

Thanks Brian

Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman, Bruce Lietzke, Moe Norman...

britt:
how does the left hand roll under the right? seems this would cup the left wrist at the top. now if i roll the left over the right it seems ok. what am i missing?

 

[Little Brit]

I suppose it kind of goes under then over. Just a feel for me.

 

[Bill Miracle]

Is it...

I suppose it kind of goes under then over. Just a feel for me.

under around 1/2 way back ,then you turn it when you lift and set the wrists?

 

[Little Brit]

I will try to explain

It is a one piece takeaway where I feel that my left hand goes under my right. I know what you mean by the halfway mark. From there all I feel is my pivot. I don't conciously do anything with my hands. I coil onto my right heel which starts my transition weight shift back to the left.

I can't say too much or the site asks for a refresh and I have to start all over again

I am a beginner though so please take what I say accordingly.

 

[Little Brit]

Now that I am thinking more about it due to the questions, I think what it does is start my pivot straight away.

type your whole response then highlight and right click copy, if it asks for a refresh you can just paste it

brit, when you start your pivot what is in your mind to start it?

 

[jbrunk]

Brit; over the last 2 months I have had the same feel of LW rolling under RW, and it has produced some beautiful ball striking.

brit, when you start your pivot what is in your mind to start it?

Push with the left arm/hand (while staying connected)

And the down swing what thoughts?
