Jim, I read your post at Manzella's the other day. I don't have access to an AI, can't afford to fly to one and pay their fee.

I've been doing dowel drills, stage 1 and 2 motion curriculum since November. Actually my shortgame is pretty good.

But, I've lost 20 yards with my driver, lost 30 yards with my irons. I know I don't have throwaway, because I use a tac-tic and it doesn't click, tac or tic. My health hasn't changed since last year.

I'm going backwards hard and fast. So, I guess I'm just going to put the clubs away for the next 2 weeks. Have a little 9 hole scramble in 2 weeks. Maybe that will change my outlook.

Thanks for your input!
I've only seen brian twice and he's helped a lot but a lot of what i learned was "found in the dirt" as hogan would say. I was close to where you were not long ago as i said in the post, but i figured it out. I was on the verge of transitioning from hitting, maybe even switting, to more of a swinging motion.

Once i figured that out and TRUSTED it, everything came back.

THEN

Once the confidence came back i allowed myself to swing as fast as i knew i could. I wasn't worried about my flat left wrist, or hitting it fat, or nothing. I think you might be somewhere where i was. Where do you live? Send me an email if you want, i'd love to try and help.
