I have on my bathroom mirror a print out of yoda and Hogan comparing the downswing to the point where Yoda's hands are even with his right thigh. The club shaft is parallel to the ground at this point sustaining the lag, otherwise the pictures are the same. I think the the right leg is slightly more foward. The foward(to the left) brace of the right leg reminds me of the photo in Percy Boomer's book of address. I am trying to remember my lesson with Yoda. Did he have me move my hips more to the left at address or were they centered? Golly, if I could have my wish when I blew out my 70th birthday cake candles last week, it would be to have the same shot showing the hips and legs, showing startup but also top down to follow thru. Also it would be nice to see a view from the top showing only the hips and hands relationships from release to follow thru. I have trouble understand the sequencing of the hands arms and hips and their relationships. The concept of pulling, dragging and then driving is confusing to me. Of course for the hitter it must be simple - you just hit it. I guess that is why those that are challenged by complexity chose that way! I would appreciate it if you all could lay it all out for an old guy like me. david sandridge View Public Profile Send a private message to david sandridge Find all posts by david sandridge
