Bagger and I played a round yesterday and I noticed how my friend was pounding the ball. The other thing I noticed was the compression he was getting with his wedges and the sound it was making. He NEVER makes that sound. We are on the 7th tee and he showed me the start up swivel move, which I never really understood before. He also showed me how to properly roll through impact.
In the past when I tried to swing, I always struggled with the horizontal hinge through impact. I would always hit sharp hooks when trying to swing. I am convinced now that this was due to an improper start-up.
They say you should never work on your swing during a round. Screw that. All I can say is I'm blown away by the results. I can't believe how hard I can roll throught impact without hooking the ball.
Thanks Bagger!! (and Yoda, and Steve, and Homer)
So, I use EA and roll to my top letting the plane flatten. Coming down with a horizontal hinge that is non-automatic?
That will produce much more out on the downswing and not much more hook?
