Brian:

Very smooth my friend, very smooth!! Were you working on anything specific here or just a bit of practice from the hayfield...errr, range!

Gotta love how far in the follow-through (and past it) you keep the FLW...one to envy for all of us!

Trying for a Stationary Head.

Never had one !

 

[FL-John]

Head looks pretty stationary here...maybe a bit of twisting but doesn't seem to move back and forth too much....

Did you try to accomplish by just focusing on not moving head??? If so, it seems to have kept the motion very smooth!

The 'swinging force' in action.

Hi Brian,

Just out of sheer curiosity, what are your yardages like?

You know, i tried to sustain my wrist cock into the hitting and did not consciously uncock, i hit my drives only 200m...damn.
Do i have to unsnap it in the hitting area, or past the aiming point? Btw i learnt that from Bobby Schaeffer...u know him?

Do i have to uncock consciously at the aim point? becos when i did that previously, i hit it much further...i may have misunderstood something...

On this shot, I just 'tapped' a 7-iron about 145. Normal is more like 160. But I can hit it 175 if I swing like a wild man.

You didn't ever release properly and SHOULD have hit it shorter.

Where else would I 'un-snap' it at?

quote: Or unsnap it past the aiming point?

Why would you do that? You might whiff it!

quote:I learnt that from Bobby Schaeffer...u know him?

I know who he is. I never met him, but I heard he got in Mac O'Grady's face once, so he sounds okay to me

Does he know who I am?

quoteo i have to uncock consciously at the aim point? becos when i did that previously, i hit it much further

Then do that!
