I've dedicated this winter to improving my golf swing. I bought a P3Pro, which reads clubhead info, and simulates ball flights from that. Anyway, just been tooling around with my swing a lot and I realized that my biggest flaw is that my hands always want to go towards the ball during the downswing, which inevitably opens my clubface. I've been playing with everything from more rotation in the shoulders to dropping the hands straight down and using a centripetal release to using a no arms type of swing to pulling my lead arm straight towards my front foot. I've gotten all of them to work for a round or two on the simulator, but after awhile, that ole want to drive my hands towards the ball pops into my head and I'll hit a shot with like a 7* open clubface. I want to stop with the band aids and get to the root of the problem, but I just don't know what it is. I don't know why subconsciously, I do this, when consciously, I know exactly how I should be swinging the club? I rehearse my swing in slo-mo all the time, I use the tumble, I've tried being totally in line or even a crossing it a bit... But nothing lasts. And I work on my swing for about an hour and a half every night, so I really don't think it's from a lack of practice. I need to shift my mode of thinking from towards the ball to towards the target, but I just can't find that breakthrough swing thought. Can anybody help me? Sorry if it's long winded... Had a frustrating round at Pebble Beach just now...
