As you enter in the downswing slot you throw the left hand knuckles towards the ground. The same effect as curling and the sole of the club is level to the surface.

Your back shoulder coming up too soon in the forward swing leaves the right forearm lagging behind and more than likely is giving you that pushing effect.

As advance of a player as you are, are you feeling the toe of the driver coming around after impact?

I was in Texas for the last several weeks on Modays and Fridays, how far are you from Sherman,Texas or Ardmore, Oklahoma?

Send me an e-mail if you like.
Thanks again, It is 330 miles to ardmore, near 300 to Sherman. From where I live you can drive forever before you get anywhere. Building a new driver this week maybe that will help and I will watch the hands. Hard to pratice in the winter, not enought daylight. I have a son who also competed in the LDA last time. First drive was 377 yards,I think our nerves got in the way being the first time we tried.LOL!!! Hard to hit it if you can't get it on the tee. He is a good golfer- better than me. He is also a small boy. 6ft 5in 340 pounds. I do thank you for the help and I will keep you posted as things progress.
