Trying to limit some movement in my swing, particularly my downswing that has a tendency to go forward and up causing blocks/weak rights.
Played 9 holes this weekend and hit it lousy until I started concentrating on keeping my spine in the same position from start to finish. I got my chest/spine over the ball and tried to turn back with the spine still in the same position from the side view. On the downswing I also tried to keep the spine in same position and swing thru. Hit it much better. Shots were straighter but trajectory was much lower. My assumption on lower trajectory was lack of axis tilt.
It really felt like my swing was more "rotational" versus a more "swayish" back and thru.
I was looking at Redgoat's site and noticed that Immelman really stays right over the ball with his chest/spine.
Anyone see problems with this move?
