Figuring it out
thanks for the tip. i've always thought or been told i need to keep turning. guess i need more turn and earlier too. i'll work on it
Couple of quick thoughts:
1) Probably could be a real effective move that you have.
2) If you felt that your results were not that good and wanted to make a change- then just focusing on more turn through the ball - is really just one half of the equation.
3) You get in a "over the top" location, action, etc. at the top of your movement- for which you need to compensate for. The move down and the resulting "no turn" are just compensations made as a result of your backswing or other "improper" movements in the swing. So if you decide you want more turn through the ball - you first need to figure out - what is the other improper movement(s) that you need to change so that you can "turn more through the shot" without hitting it off the planet left.
4) Sometimes the concept "headstill" and your interpretation of it- prevents you from transferring weight to the lead foot on the forward swing- that "staying back" can create shots more to the left- and then you offset that by stopping the turn of the lower body- so that the club still goes more to the right. If you notice that in those swings- you don't fully complete your finish- that's just a reflection of what the problems were before the finish.
The more you can figure it out on your own- or "dig it out of the dirt" - the better chance you'll have of really making some improvement in your game. Not to say that a good teacher like Brian can't help you along the way or help you understand what you are doing and why- but in the end you need to take ownership of your swing- whether you continue to get professional help or not.
