... almost.

Just be carful and not strike the ball too hard. It may disturb the perfect static balance. The safest stroke is actually to just leave the ball in the pocket. Be careful with the air drag nevertheless.

Major swing thought should be: Imagine that you're standing on the north pole - on a very thin layer of wery slippery ice. With a few thousand feet of very cold water below.


Yes, for a true shiftless swing I like to swing without a club while on my way to the bathroom in the middle of the night. No shoes. "Dry swinging" as my Swedish golf buddy calls it. I always get a big round of applause from the wife if I happen to wake her up when doing that one. Which is why I try to make it as undynamic and as quiet as I possibly can. She is a big fan of my golf addiction that girl. Yes I'm a lucky guy.

One thing that is always confusing to me is exactly where is "top", some players reach top at what I would consider the three quarters position and then start to move the weight left, to me that is what I see in Hogan's swing, or even Nicklaus with his float loading. Am I crazy, should all that weight be staying right until that moment the club is on its downswing arc.

Top is right shoulder high and End is end basically or what non TGM'er would call the top of the backswing.
