I think the move you showed us is more or less there with the better players as well. But some of them at least, have their hips more turned at impact so it looks different. Is it the hip stall that worries you? If you look at Bubba or Sadlowski you will see that they jump'n flare open their front foot through the down stroke to enable a more open hip through the ball. The alternative would be to flare the foot more out at address. Im primarily talking about the butt pushing in towards the Base Line in Transition when viewed from a DTL perspective. The hips being more open at impact or not stalling or whatever can be related, but that is a side issue. Symptomatic in other words. Or is the butt push symptomatic itself? Helter Skelter....... TPI has isolated this thrusting as a major point of departure between pros and amateurs. Pros by and large dont do it. Amateurs do. Golf trainers seem to be focussing on this move. Im looking for people who have been cured in this way and in a golf swing way. Are there no survivors out there? Although it can often appear to be an isolated thing, it has a profound ripple effect that disturbs the left shoulder to ball radius and requires a pulling up and back of the head or shoulder girdle to make contact. Its a string slackening move in other words and you cant draw perfect circles without a taught string stretching from center to pencil, can you. Here is another tip from the home think tank. Although Im still searching for a cure. Establish your String (left shoulder to ball) relationship at Fix. Then keep your head putt and move to Adjusted assuming you Startup from Adjusted. This way you dont have to find the proper center whilst on the move. Come on guys we're in the Lab here for crying out loud. Go nuts. What do you have that actually works? I might have to start a telethon for a cure if this goes on any longer. How do you keep your " ass on the glass"? Ass back golf , yes but how? Last edited by O.B.Left : 02-28-2010 at 02:23 PM.
