hi Go Low
i have been re-reading hogan and also Mindy Blake and one thing Mindy talks about is setting up the right and left side's so your in the "K" set up before you start your swing. it like your almost in the impact set up with your body. your left hips is pushed out more to the target and your right leg is flexed but resisting any backward sway of both hips and legs and both feeet hand your weight on both insteps, also the right eye is lower than the left at set up and i see most pros have there right eye lower than there left at impact too.
i have been trying this set up with my Trevino system and its working really well and i seem to be hitting a little longer and dont have as much sway to the target as i'm already half way there at set up.
what i was wanting to know is by doing this am i swinging more against my almost fixed left side and that why i'm hitting longer. i still stand 45% open.
when setting up i feel like i'm pushing my hips to the left even on my backswing and i push my hip to where i want the ball to start off.
cheers
