Hard to say without seeing video. Namely start up swivel or perhaps a grip or face angle issue. If you are hitting there is normally no start up swivel, angled hinging not horizontal in start up and therefor an associated feeling on the downswing of very little, if any number 3 or release swivel for that matter. The right shoulder takes the bent right arm to release and then #1 fires, extends, with the right wrist staying frozen in its impact fix degree of bend. Lag pressure sensed against the #3 pp. Thrust sensed mainly against pp#1. Angled hinging being a no roll feel. Now if you arent employing start up swivel and are still cutting the shot---that is an open club face at impact as opposed to a cross line clubhead path through the ball-----then you might want to check your clubface angle in fix and your grip. Make sure; your grip is not too weak (you could try 10-2-D) and your club face is slightly closed at fix. Angled hinging with its slower rate of closing needs some adjustments at fix to compensate. If this still doenst fix the cut shot you may be float loading. I dont wish to bring harm to Brownman's swing here so please feel to correct me here anybody. At the very least this will give you a couple of things to research. See chapter 12-1 vis a vis 12-2. And remember free advice is always, always worth every penny spent, which is zero. ob Last edited by O.B.Left : 01-25-2009 at 03:51 PM.
