swing?
 

Did you call that a swing? How insulting! (Just kidding)
;) :lol: :lol:

On the next to last picture (104) it looks like a horizontal hinge on your follow-through?? Or is that an illusion from this angle?? Or am I missing something (most likely the case!)..
When I had my lesson with you in late Sept I had a similar looking follow through( after 90 minutes of work!) and your comment on my video was that you liked to see that position. I forgot to ask you that at the time.
Thanks, Dave

Great Stuff here Ted... how long for me to look like #97???

hinge action versus finish swivel
 

Hinge action is only from impact to follow-through (both arms straight/two feet past the ball). The "blasting to Beijing" created a truckload of soil around the clubhead, so the clubface is a little obscured. But at two feet past, I'll assure you that it's 45 degrees across the baseline. Even a hitter has to have an exit to finish. And that bridge is the finish swivel. Many have been taught to execute a hinge action as a swivel. That's bad business.

you're there
 

I've seen you do it. And, I've got it on tape. The real challenge is to create the frequency that you desire.

Thanks for the reply Ted--understand it now! Dave

I noticed that your left shoulder at impact is almost in the same position as address. ( reference the clouds behind you )

Do you consider this important to consistently hitting the ball well????

NotTed but - He's using impact fix as address = they should look alike.

Impact address
 

Thom is very correct. I do use an impact address (10-9-B). It says, "it encourages stiffer and stronger structure and motion and is especially useful for "hitting".
It is meant to simulate the impact conditions, so the pics should be similar.

Ted,

Before "seeing the light," were you LONG (uh)? I have witnessed your prodigeous length after becoming a flaming Hitter, but could you bust it with the misinformed mismatched procedure?


Thanks!
