This golf season is soon over here. My two trips to Cuscowilla and Yoda have stopped my decline with regards to my rising hcp. I'm down from 21 to 18. But that still makes me a high handicaper. I need to get even better despite my age (63).
My understanding of TGM has been poor regardless of being a copy machine the last halv year. I still wish for a TGM light to work on. The whole book is too overwhelming and impossible (for me) to consider when hitting a shot.
This winter I need to figure more of this out for my self.
If anybody wants to give some advice it would be appreciated.
My biggest problems have been steep OTT cut shots.
My random thoughts on what to do are:
- Always keep the Imperatives and Essientials in mind and find a way to do this right.
- The difference between address and impact/impact fix is surely important to work on - combined with a lot of basic and acquired motions.
- Make sure the basic and acquired motions are working before training a lot on the total motion.
- The tracing of the base line with the right forearm /#3 PP is probably something I need to fokus more on.
- The start down waggle and right shoulder on plane on the way down is something I need to work on.

- The freewheeling arms in conjunction with the pivot working from the ground up is a problem area for me I think.
- For the total motion the importance of making the finish swivel and getting a "stylish" finish - arrow thru the ears etc.
- Working on the 12 sections of a golfstroke and putting it together with good balance and rhythm.
- Figuring out how to make CF my friend (as a swinger).
- I know about 12-3-0 which says it all, but I have to find a way to make this work for me without getting lost.
- Learn how to store power and deliver it with the sustained lag we all want..
- Hinge actions..
- And there's always the putting..
What have I forgot...?

Does any of this make sense?
I think you're being too hard on yoursewlf AIR. You have learned a TON in a very short time as evidenced by your post. You are also making steady improvement as evidenced by your handicap.
You can't do it on your own. You need to find another student of TGM in your area to hit balls with, or an AI to watch you once in awhile. I know, easier said than done. I am very lucky Jerry lives in my area...
Chin up Mate, you are doing great, don't stop now!!!
