John is having a great deal of trouble changing his takeaway, and he is not alone. Trigger mechanisms are a bitch to change and when you watch John’s swing here versus his last online lesson you can see that while he has made progress with his pivot movement his takeaway is still a big problem. I focus the slow-motion video on John’s hands as he prepares to move the club into the backswing: he grips, then lets go, then grips again just as he moves the clubhead back.
