The last thread on driving distance was terrific and to follow up on that theme - Where is Your Power Leak, or power source....

I will start – for me – it is a lack of flexibility in my upper body – my shoulders are really tight and I can’t get any where near full rotation on my backswing.

I have a tendency to start the down swing too quickly – and too much use of my upper body. I video taped my drives and frankly I wouldn’t, at first, believe my lying eyes, I was almost all upper body. It troubled me so much, that I signed up for lessons, weekly, all summer long!

One of my (many) power leaks is deceleration of the swing because I am unconsciously trying to hit the ball
