Brian,
I have watched your video NSA 10 times and love it. I like the simplicity of the hinge action you advocate for slicers, especially the horizontal waggle to verify clubface being square. I have always been a "shut-faced" swinger, as I like to minimize clubface rotation.
My problem is hooks and pulls. I can swing slowly at 40% to confirm the trail wrist flexing back on itself, but have trouble holding on to impact hands. I try holding on, and also accelerating through to no avail. If I had to guess what I am doing, I would say that because the trail wrist flexes back, that it subconsciously puts my mind into a hinge action that is east and west, as opposed to east on the backswing, and south on the downswing. This probably doesn't make sense but I don't want to so quickly abandon this method. Do you find students who, using your definition of neutral grip, tell you it feels unusually weak? Perhaps I am still a bit too strong. My wedding ring aligns on the grip at 7 o clock if straight up is 12 and straight down is 6. Yesterday I finally got some good fades going (my preference) by trying to maintain the slight cup at adress throughout the swing. Any thoughts?
