Yoda, are you swinging or hitting in this? And to clarify, when you say "cut shot" in the video, are you doing vertical hinges first to impact, then with a swivel?

Balanced Boots

But I'll bet Yoda hasn't tried it in cowboy boots yet. I think I have the honor of being the first.

There are things you do in cowboy boots, Bagger. And there are things you don't do. Swinging on a BOSU® is one of those 'don't do' things.

Do You See What I See? Do You Feel What I Feel?
With each Shot...
Watch the Feet throughout the Stroke.
Watch the Head.
Are they still? Are they quiet?
Is the Body (Pivot) turning subtly back and through in response to -- but STILL LEADING -- the Command of the Hands?
Do the Knees accomodate this Motion as Anchors to the Stroke...or are they 'firing?'
Stop the video down and note the Flat Left Wrist and Bent Right Wrist at Impact and into the Follow-Through. These are visual confirmations of Rhythm -- the In Line condition of the Left Arm and Clubshaft through the Impact Interval.
In your own computer's 'Still' and Slo-Mo' mode, can you see the subtle differences in the Angled Hinge Action of the 'bread and butter' Pitch Shot (Left Wrist remaining perpendicular to the Inclined Plane) versus the Vertical Hinge Action of the Cut Shot (Left Wrist remaining perpendicular to the Vertical Plane)? Could you see the additional Clubface Layback of the Cut-Lob Shots (played a bit further forward in the Stance) as the Club moved smoothly 'around the Pulley Wheel' in its Endless Belt Effect (2-K #6) to the Finish?
Again, with each Shot...
What is the Left Hand Location at the Finish?
Has the Left Wrist Alignment been maintained?
What is the Clubshaft Position at the Finish of each Stroke? Is it below the Hands or above the Hands? To what degree?
After the Follow-Through, how did the On Plane Swivel of the Left Wrist/Forearm facilitate the Finish Motion?
The Star System of G.O.L.F. is all about converting precision Mechanics into identifiable Feels (1-J).
See it.
Do it.
Watch yourself do IT and EXACTLY it.
Feel it.
OWN it.

This is getting off topic and it's probably my fault.
I'll post something in The Lounge on my visit with Yoda last weekend, and my golf outing with Ted and one of our new members soon.
