(3) Can you give me the distance between your left hand and your right shoulder as you swing to the top of your backswing?
(4) Is your left arm the same distance from your left nipple at the top of the backswing as it was at address...or does the triangle that was formed (by your two arms and chest) at address collapse on your backswing?
(5) Same question as #4 except: does it [only] collapse on the downswing? |
(1) When I took lessons (3 I believe) 2 from 1 instructor 1 from another, I asked both of them if they teach 1 or 2 ps, they both said they don't get caught up in that stuff,they said my swing was nice and to keep the club in front of me throughout the swing (makes sense) but that was not the real root of my swing faults.....I do not purposely try to mix components, probably more of a habit or still searching.
(2) I try to keep my left arm touching my more or less the my left pec throughout the swing.
(3) Aprox. 6 in.
(4) & (5) My left arm stays connected on the BS and DS but the triangle probably collapes because I am pulling my right elbow back at the start of the swing....I have been watching Mike LaBauve alot on Golflink and am trying this swing as of yesterday...I think before my BS was to upright and my DS was to underplane, with a hip bump and trying to get the right elbow to my side but I would get stuck alot,so I was always trying to find a way to fix it because the instructors didn't see it or didn't worry about it,I don't know.....But for right now I going to focus on this Mike LaBauve stuff(feels alot different ,but better)
