Setting my impact hands in the takeaway with Brian's twistaway, I think of the image of a house of cards, where you delicately set the last card on top and simply get out of the way and hope it stands on its own. Such is the feeling right now for me with twistaway. Intellectually, I now have faith from a physics and mechanics point that it is right, but I am having to do all I can to not disturb the alignments and get the impact hands condition to impact undisturbed.
After a good week of range work, I reluctantly took this new swing to my weekly dogfight, making the commitment to stick with it no matter what, none of this "well let me try this" stuff. Here is the good, bad, and ugly.
1. the good-I hit some very, very, pure and straight shots with what i call a ripping divot
2. the bad-actually could be classified under good, but I had no distance control over my short shots, due to more lag being present. After a while, I reverted to throwaway because it is so familiar and predictable. Also, every 5 swings I would think I am following the pied piper, and revert to my fan and roll swing,but after recovering my ball from the left side of the rough, with tail between my legs, go back to Never Slice Again.
3. The ugly-my score. I actually gave up the score, figuring sooner or later I have got to make the change over. My ugly shots had a pull-hook look and feel to them. What are some suggestions to purge this hit impulse that topples my now fragile house of cards. I think the answer may lie somewhere in the land of tempo and rythem.
