You are 'bobbing" here, Grant -- downward head motion -- and way too 'position' conscious for what you trying to achieve. Your 'hip bump' and impact alignments are admirable but must be kept in context of a swinging motion.

Stay with half swings for awhile. Equal length in both directions, Right Forearm parallel to the ground in the backstroke, then left forearm parallel into the finish. Point the butt end of the club at the line (again, in both directions). Keep the motion continuous -- back and through and back and through. Let the left wrist roll to plane and recock into the finish. Let the club swing free.

Quoting the late, great Canadian golfer George Knudsen, "To gain control you must give up control".

Quoting Bob Jones, "Freewheel".

Quoting me, "Let'er go at the bottom".

Thanks Lynn.

Rob Noel was just telling me the same thing. Everything looks technically good but all must be blended together into a smooth motion.

I had not noticed the head bobbing until you posted that. Considering I've always had a standing up problem I'm actually pretty happy to have this issue.
