Too much axis tilt

[gommo]

Can you have too much axis tilt?

If so, what is the general method to find the perfect axis tilt for different clubs? If so, what are the general tell-tale signs off too much axis tilt?

Thanks

Too much of anything ain't good for ya baby!

Can you have too much Axis Tilt?

Of course.

How do you know you have Too Much?

If the DEGREE of AXIS TILT is greater than the DEGREE OF SHOULDER OPENING.

IF your head winds up WAY, WAY back from address.

If your swing is WAY TOO inside-out AND your low point is too far back WHEN YOU HAVE A FLAT LEFT WRIST!!!

I have axis tilt creep in my game: i.e., without awareness of it, I tend to keep increasing it. When I SEE myself, it's obvious; when I DO it, it ain't.

The outfall is that shots hit WITH too much tilt turn out to be cut, flop, floaters. By keeping a high right shoulder at address I can compress the ball with a descending blow. Huge difference in iron ball flight with less tilt@

It's also easier on the back not to tilt so much.
