I have a small tire just like on his videos and I can move the tire pretty good without flipping it over. For some reason it just doesn't translate over the ball. What else should I be trying to monitor? Remember, the Flat Left Wrist at Impact and the In-Line condition from Sweet Spot to Left Shoulder constitute only Phase II of the Law of the Flail -- Centrifugal Momentum. In Phase I, the Club, having been taken Out-of-Line with the Left Arm, is then Released to seek its In-Line condition. In Phase III, the Club must once again get Out-of-Line. Only when the Club passes smoothly through all three phases can you hope to have an effective full Golf Stroke. Practice the dowel drill I do in the video Are You Ready To Roll. http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/gallery...to=219&cat=517 First use a dowel to get the feel of the action, and then use a club gripped well down. IMPORTANT: Hold the dowel and club in your FIST (thumb around the shaft) and NOT in a normal golf grip. This automatically produces the Out-of-Line condition mandated in Phases I and III. Check this hold after a few passes because you've probably gone back to your normal left hand grip. Almost everybody does. Then, using the left hand only but using a normal golf grip, hold the club at the end of the shaft. Finally, using both hands in a normal grip, make half-swings emphasizing the exact same Flailing motion as in the drills. Stay with it a while, and my guess is you will be pleasantly surprised at the results. __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
