Indoor Mirror Practice
I have a ton of space to do mirror work without hitting anyone. Are there any recommended practice techniques I should do in front of a mirror (front view or side view).
Thanks for any suggestions or referenced to previous threads on this (I did look and did not see any though).

Mirror Mirror on the wall..........
Alignments, alignments, alignments!
Look, Look, Look!
Set your "wedges" and learn through some slow motion swings to get the feel of maintaining them throughout.
Affix some tape on the mirror that represent various Plane Angles and practice each first with zero shift and then with single, double shifts and so on......get educated with the feel for each. Practice the 3 Hinge motions and look and feel the differences.

There are plenty of good things that you can learn in a mirror. I agree with the "Look, Look, Look." You can't spend too much time checking alignments. I prefer the FO, instead of the DTL. But, as long as you understand that your eyes are not On Plane, you can do some good work with the DTL mirror, too.
I've seen many improve by spending time in the mirror, even without hitting balls. When it's cold, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Teaching Pros, any recommendations for a cost effective mirror system outside on the range?
Thanks,
Kevin

So, Its simply a look and feel practice session? Mostly plane work?
