I am on all the major forums and have all of Brian Manzella's videos but just can't get past the flip in my full swing, although I am getting better. I have the Tour Stiker and Jeff Evan's pure ball striker to help me out.
I have my degree in Exercise Physiology , so I really enjoy all the TGM talk and theory. I have watched nearly all the videos on here and have watched Lynn's lesson with Collin also.

So on to my question. I went at lunch today and probably did about 100 basic motion shots with 8, PW, 60'. I got in exaggerated impact fix and tried to only go 2 back and 2 through.
Tried to freeze that bent right wrist and really feel PP3 and PP1. At first it was difficult I was hitting some squirters off to the right, then I realized that I was getting into impact I was actually opening my clubface so I fixed that and the squirters stopped.

I still at times hit behind the ball but the last half of the session got much better as I felt like I was heel punching with my right hand, keeping the PP's all there and trying to keep that flying wedge in tact. It felt like I was more aggressive down to the ball. I started hearing these click sounds off the clubface, I assume that's right? Hitting the ball first? Almost all the shots were vertical hinging as that just seemed natural for basic motion. I can tell you that my right elbow and arm are sore right now. I didn't see any major divots , am I supposed to in basic motion? However , I did have grass up to say the 4th groove on the face.

Does this all sound good? And what could be the cause of those occasional squirters to the right? I know that when I hit behind the ball I was probably losing my angles. Any help is greatly appreciated as I begin my journey to actually start hitting the ball the correct way.

thanks
Joe
When do you think that you begin release? Where are your hands in relation to the ball?? one foot behind? two feet behind? 3" behind? 6" behind? Are they at the Ball?

The Clubhead passes your hands because your hands slow.....Where are your hands when they begin to slow??? Are they 6" past the ball?
