Hi John , I find that when I push down with the lead hand I tend to increase the slight cup I have at address therefore open the face ! Am I doing the “”push down “” wrong ? Thanks for the advice

When you set the wrist, keep your eyes on the back of your left hand and be sure to keep it flat. you can put a chop stick down your glove and against your left wrist to help guide the motion. The wrist set is less than you think...until you extend the wrist (cup) which opens the face.

If you taught someone to just swing like you did at the beginning and just turned, swing, with no rotation through, they would be the best ballstriker ever. Humans can create more speed with their shoulders and a bent left arm ( another lever) than they realize. Turning causes inconsistency. ( pros hit 60%of fairways) golf creates back injuries.

Great drill and great principal. Question though.. why did Ben Hogan want 3 right arms if the right arm is not dominant, even a part of the swing? I guess there are all kinds of ways to play this game because many great ball strikers emphasize crushing it with the right arm once club is back down to near parallel. Mike Austin hit his drive over 500 yds (favorable conditions of course) and he emphasized striking with the right side.

This might seem like a weird question but how do you determine the radius of the curve on your device attached to the club? Is it measured from the shoulders or from the armpits to the club face? Is it measured at the height of the club with full extension of the arms or at address? Or is it simply the length of your arms? Just curious if I was to make one myself.

JD, at about the 14 minute mark, I noticed that your right shoulder doesn’t dip during the swing. If you look at the bottom of the picture frame behind you, that shoulder stays very level and it’s the left side of your body that generates momentum by coming up and behind. I like it, thanks!

I definitely do not have a lot of right side bend. But there is enough. If the right shoulder is too high, you may have to flip the club just to reach the ball.

Have you ever had a scenario where this drill helps with irons? I recorded this drill with an iron because it was the only club near me to see what it looks like. I havent been able to cure my steep and over swing in 15 years of trying. Through impact i have some, lets just call them fascinating ways to shallow the club late to save it. With this drill, that dang club actually got under the plane. Obviously its an extreme example and id need to dial it back, but has me thinking i should at least consider the need to "feel" hitting slightly more up on irons. Willing to bet its still a downward AoA, just more shallow. Not getting my hopes up yet as I've found the solution about 1000 different times, but this seems promising!
