A whole lot more

Just wanted to say thanks for the fine observations and insights in this thread. Tonight in the simulator, I learned a ton while increasing my driving average from 175 to 205. Displacing the bottom and top hands in my best Freddy Couples imitation allowed me to Hit lots of slight pushes and fades.

I did something right, toward the end of the night and uncorked a 225 yard drive while Hitting. I think that was a drive I totally trusted and strove into. I realized that I had been turning my left wrist 1/2 way between a full Startup-Swivel and a FLW. As soon as I kept my FLW with a RFT and Angle Hinge, the ball started to leap but I must've been running out of right arm since I was hooking the ball.

MY alignments are all messed up. My wrists are also sore. I could feel a lot more power available through the Displacements but I realized I just did not have the skill to let the power flow through the stroke.

More study is the answer.
