LEFT SIDE

A quick one, really, but just lloking for some feedback on what members think.
When I was 16 I could hit a persimmon driver about 280. Now, 20 years removed, I can barely get to 260 with the new drivers. A constant problem for me is my left side. When I'm hitting it well, I feel like the left side practically collapses to allow the right side through the impact zone. Every other time, my left side feels like it blocks the right side, with the resultant enormous deceleration and loss of distance, even if I hit the shot well.
Shaft tumble, carry, up and down the wall, NHA...the whole 9 yards have been brought to bear, with precious little luck. Pushes and hooks abound, with the odd pull hook thrown in as my pivot works backwards in a desperate attempt to "jump" the right side over the left and the right hand wraps around in a pathetic fashion...
Anybody on the forum fight this? I'd be fascinated to know, because I'm about to give it all up. Gimme a lance to spear this dragon!
Cheers

Video would be nice. I'm not sure what youre talking about. If I had to describe my swing like that I would say that my right side collapses and my left side lengthens as I hit the ball, not the other way around.
 
Lindsey, being about the least technologically-savvy punter on the planet, I had half a mind to mail you a betamax cassette of my shoddy move!
natep, You would think, right? And my right side does collapse but only cos it can't get past the left side
I shall endeavour to get some video up before the century is out!

Thanks and regards...

Find a friend with a video camera and have them post to YouTube or something. Even I posted mine to YouTube and I am the second in line on the evolution parade picture.
