Rob, my two cents would be to suggest you go to Lynn's youtube channel and watch the lesson with Colin Neeman series of videos.

I would also suggest you check out any video of Lynn where he talks about hinge action.

Your swing isn't awful, a lot of it looks good and I'm sure all the AI's on here would love to get their (educated) mits on you because IMHO it wouldn't take them long to have you hitting piercing frozen ropes into the yonder!

If you don't have it, get "Alignment Golf", you will find it extremely useful, especially all the drills.

I should add that I am merely a seeker like yourself, I have no formal training whatsoever.

Thanks fot the 2 cents GPS. I'll have to think about getting the Alignment Golf" DVD sent over here to Blighty!

I have indeed watched the Colin Neeman video and watched Yoda's hinge action vids, all numerous times.

Now and then i seem to hit the ball very very solid at the range (all my golf is at the range, i rarely play these days...) E.g. for the last couple of days it's felt really good, BUT and it's a big but, i can hit nice straight 7 irons 140 to maybe 145, my PW bang on 100 but that's it... that distance is no good, i see 12 year olds half my size zooming it past that. I can fly a 5 iron maybe 155, my driver maybe 200 max carry. so i just KNOW i can't be getting any lag with those numbers. damn frustrating for sure.

You said it, flip city. You're bending your left wrist through impact. So dont do that and you're fixed.

By allowing the clubhead to overtake your hands later in your swing and via a flat and rolling left wrist instead of bending one will see you return to form. Quickly.

i really do get the CONCEPT of a flat and rolling wrist but boy do i seem to have a hard time gettin it done!

thanks again guys for all feedback
