In the almost-a-year since I had my lesson with Yoda, I have played my most consistent golf ever. I attribute it to monitoring my alignments and learning to swing my arms independently of my body as per MacDonald Drill No. 5 (I think). I am now trying to integrate the MacDonald drill with my Basic Motion practice, and I wanted to make sure that I was doing it correctly. When I move the club 18" in the backstroke to 18" in the forward stroke, I try to feel my arms moving independently of my body (as a swinger). I also use the drill on the course to ingrain the feel that I am swinging the club.
