Thanks, ITC.

Specifics though, Air! Here's one or more: You are pressed against the wall so your head is still and Pivot will turn as if it were "in a barrel," only allowing your Forward Swivel to go underneath the wall and around. Got it?

Now, from Impact Fix RFT covering the actual club-head path. Do it slowly and slowly drag your right knee to the inside quadrant of the ball to come down. Angle Hinge right. Keep practicing slowly with dragging the right knee at about a 45 degree angle, slowly. Now I pinch PP # 3 with my thumb and forefinger to remind myself of its importance. Slowly point your PP # 3 as you slowly drag your right knee to the ball. Experiment with picking 3 Aiming Points on the Baseline of the plane. Do it in wet grass and make three different divots and look at their shapes.

My insight for me is that the slow drag of the right knee "Sustains the LAG," wonderfully and lets me pick the flight of the ball. This was new to my experience as my HCP is still 15 or so. Slowly dragging the knee actually allows me to make contact pretty well, as well as I did shooting a 77 or an 80.

Now, slowly drag the left knee to the ball and Trace the Baseline then either shift your hips or turn left or slowly drag your right knee to the ball again. Watch the beautiful Horizontal Hinge close as a door. Slowly repeat and practice the Aiming points to experiment with ball flights and shapes.

Slowly with the knees and Aiming Points to figure out your ball trajectories and # 3 PP control. Don't forget to close the face for longer Angle Hinge clubs depending on the Aiming Points or opening the face for the longer (8 iron or below) Horizontal Hinges. I can now actually hook a 52 degree wedge off a green so beware of that HHinge!

I read somewhere that you can open the face as much as 10 degrees to shape the HHinge but it looks like a lot to me. Still, the added zip produced some real rifle shots in flight and sound on Saturday that had me in very wet bunkers!

A week from Friday I will walk into the written test to become a PA Certified Golf Coach for HS. I hope they have some idea of what I will tell them! I know it works and I can prove it "upon their persons" as it is said in "The Death of Arthur"!

Now that I am a "permanent " Social Studies and Computer and Business Technology teacher in PA, I might as well become a golf coach!
