Quite an interesting and instructive video lesson ,Paul ,thank you.BOBBY JONES once said “Nobody has swung the club ever too slow “,it was true of the hickory shafted clubs of his days ,it’s always true even today .There’s a 3/1 time ratio to observe between backswing and throughswing ,but I don’t think about this ratio any more now ,it should become natural to you,but I still count in my head to keep the correct rythm,and go smooth and low ,back and fluid through.
Yes, slow is good. Keep the arms and hitting out of it. Tough for most people to do because they always want to the the ball their best or their longest. Sometimes you have to back to get your best and longest though.
I can hit the follow through position in practice swings but have trouble hitting the position when it time to hit the ball especially on the course. Obviously there is more tension when I hit the ball. Any suggestions on how to combat this tension?
So do it slower. This is telling me you are always trying to hit your best shots instead of just doing the positions and knowing the shots will come in the future. So swing at half speed for a while and at least do it. If you never do it you never do it. If you do it at half speed you are doing it. Then you can speed it up.
I updated the plug in. Let me know if you get the emails again.
Getting rid of the slide took me all day every day for 2 months but noone ever showed me the touch the legs position. If so, I would have done it thousands of times at home in practice swings until it was fixed (I hope you heard that).
Go slower and get it going directly between the ears. When people can’t do this they are swinging too fast or not even thinking about it. Also, you need to do this at home in a mirror every night until you are doing it. Keep in mind you are fixing this to fix other flaws in your golf swing. So instead of think of numerous things you can think of 1 which fixes everything else.
