I thought this was a great practice session as I was (finally) successful in adding hip flexion and loading into the ground in both the backswing and transition, then addressed my recent (last 8 years?) tendency to throw release the club through impact with my irons. By the time I achieved a drive/hold release and got the club to move from P7 to P8 on plane I found myself pushing up off the ground and straightening my left leg in a much timelier fashion. For the first time in a good while I felt a “heavy” strike on the ball, and it came off the face much better. I feel that my back and hip issues have contributed to my struggles with my swing, but I have been diligent in my efforts to strengthen the muscles that are necessary to accomplish what I feel is a swing that will hit the ball at a high level. I am hopeful that my body will hold up as I continue to work on what you see here.
