What a lesson that was. In minutes Kevin had me hitting high draws into a wind coming right at us. I went from a guy who hit pushes, shanks and quack hooks to a guy that actually hit some golf shots with compression. Now when I practice, the first thing I hit is a sand wedge, working on 12-3 and the finish swivel. It usually gets me right where I need to be. Unfortunately I have five months to go before I step on another golf course. Lots to work on in the basement.

That was a really fun lesson, but I'm still trying to forget the follow up when I brought out the Taly. HaHa, I have wonderful success with that tool, but it sure made a mess with you that day. Oh well, we got it straightened out and learned there are horses for courses.
Cheers Dodger!

Hi Kevin. Sportsfans. I have been working on Hitting and watching Lynn's and Ted's videos. Their finish seems very unusual to me. (I have only worked on swinging with Lynn and we know what a reclamation program I have been.) It seems like the key to a forward swivel in a hitting motion is the flat left wrist maintaining it's shape as it is propelled through the stroke by the pistoning right elbow, The feel of the forward swivel is that of a two-handed forehand in tennis or like the angle of attack is like a sharper "U" or a cross between a "V" and "U."
Does that seem correct?

That sounds a little steep to me Patrick. Are you trying to feel a really late (snap) release? Remember, YODA's finish is more than just the wrist alignments, remember his goal post drill? Very important feel for the release of the body.

Kevin, you are referring to the MacDonald drills of the hip leading the pivot first followed by the right elbow pistoning? Though if the snap would give me extra yards ala Sergio who am I to reject such a boon?

Nope, arms up trying to look like a goal post and turn to finish...
Remember, the swing happens in the blink of an eye. We can focus on address, top, and finish. Everything from top to finish happens from preparation and intent.
