MJ, not saying I swing a driver that fast but to get the speed stick to 125 is very easy for me and swinging all out I get it 135. I used to carry range balls 285 on good days and frequently had days where i would hit 5 or so drives at 300+ during a round. That is why I have been frustrated at golf for the last year or so, because I lost 30+ yards and cannot play into a headwind of more then 10 mph without taking 3 extra clubs. enough about all that, onto the findings

So I put it on tape with john and he looked at it. The answer is, flying wedges, and much more!!!! SO here is what happens, currently I am a rotary swinger where I NEVER have hands controlled pivot. I also loose spine angle before impact and therefore MUST straighten everything out to get down to the ball with the club. THe club passes my hands very early in the follow through.

The cool thing was that he put a shaft in the ground in front of me and I had to make sure that I missed the shaft on the follow through. This stops the clubhead from passing the hands. Well He had me take some practice swings with it there and put that on tape and guess what????? I had flying wedges, and a whole lot of other things allinged. Now I know what I can work on and the drill will take some time but at least it is figured out.
