of course, many things - but I make sure not to do any thinking before the swing.
I don't exactly use the whtieboard and marker visual anymore, it messed up my tempo a bit. My focus lately is definitely setup - basically what you've told me time and time again shootin - making sure I'm REACHING and making sure to glue the inside left arm to my chest on takeaway. Also, on takeaway I have to make sure (which I usually do) to take a nice easy past my right leg and not rush it. My bad shots came up when I did not finish the backswing - when I didn't feel that tension (coil) , so I have to remember to finish and feel that coil.
On the downsing it's basically just let loose and keep my head still and accelerate through the swing.
I'd like to thank you, shootin, for all your tips and emphasis on the setup. I think I need to work on ball position because I'm starting to lose some distance with specific
irons, but I recently checked on the golf calculator and everything seemed to check up. Btw, all my shots yesterday went straight, with a slight fade at the end - however, my driving still sliced a bit more than I wanted. gotta work on it there.
I plan on doing an hour-long lesson this week with the PGA pro, so we'll see how that goes. I will make sure first things first is that he doesn't try to make me change my swing completely.
thanks again
