12 piece, agreed, using the right elbow, i just didnt want to complicate matters any more than i had....i most certainly do use the cocking of the right elbow in the backswing.and do not swing it around my knees with straight arms ( like ive seen some people trying to do, lol )

I actually work as a book binder / print finisher, therefore lots of room to swing, in fact im thinking of putting a driving range mat & net in the basement so i can pop down there whenever i want ( i am self employed and make my own hours ).

One lil exercise which is helpful....get yer wedegs/structure, come down and through to both arms straight, the club will be off-to-the-left-side of you somewhat and NOT in the middle of you(typical flipper position there)...now...leave your arms and club where they are shuffle your feet & legs & hips round till the middle of your hips is facing the club again...drop it down and BINGO...youre back to impact fix...nothing in the structure changes ( apart from the pieces i mentioned at the beginning )...take it further, go to both arms straight, then add a finish swivel...now shuffle round again..unswivel and drop it down...and youre back to impact fix.....nothing changes.

It truely is...a 'Machine'.

For the longest time i was concentrating on the clubhead..."make the clubhead do this, make the clubhead do that, swiiiiiing the clubhead, square the clubhead"..etc etc.

dont concentrate on the clubhead...concentrate on the "structure"

if you dont have one already get a DOWEL, they are fantastic at giving you the feeling of this "structure" ( not to mention great for alignments etc etc )

swing with the dowel and WATCH WATCH WATCH as youre "structure" does not Change as you move through, holding a flat left wrist bent right wrist in my case ) and having the club come through & over is a piece of cake with the concept/thought of an unchanging "structure"....while it is next to impossible if youre thinking only the clubhead or even just the clubhead & clubshaft.
