How can your right arm get sore doing Basic Motion? Your not supposed to fling-hit with your right arm. Do you have a flat left wrist throughout the stroke?

yes, I am trying to maintain impact fix position as I understand basic motion to be. Right sore from I guess the punch with the right forearm and the bend right wrist when you haven't done 100 of those before,

Divots? You're taking Divots? Are you slingin a Sledge Hammer?

I was asking if divots were necessary for basic motion as I am really not getting them, but am getting a click on the face from the ball


Zero out the #3 Accumulator by moving the grip of the club into the palm of your left hand (lifeline), and add your right hand. (baby steps) Are you using a Single Action Grip?

I don't have the TGM yet, so I had to look up #3 (left arm rotation) , my grip is standard, just about 2knuckles, thumb on the aft side of top of shaft, grip in fingers and under heel pad.
I don't think I am rotating the left arm going back. I am just trying to go straight back two feet and then compress holding the angles until both arms straight and the club is still below the hands. The face is looking at the ball the whole time. Small motion. No rotation


Now, two feet back and two feet past the ball. Stop moving your shoulders on the backswing.

I am doing very small motion, my shoulders may move a touch but I am not turning away from the ball. It almost feels like a herd putt with bent wrist and flat left. The downswing feels like down and forward and not much out as the club is not getting behind me.

Do you feel the Left arm press against the chest on the backswing?

My hands only seem to get about a foot passed my back foot so the arm is not really moving that far to press "against" my check. As I am doing the motion here in the house, it feels like my arms are out in front of me

Let me know the answers.

Did you read this thread? It may be helpful. http://www.lynnblakegolf.com/forum/s...ead.php?t=6622
I know you have long answer in there, and I have read the thread yes, didn't want to threadjack it. Just wanted to make sure I was on the right track to compression and a better swing.

Thanks so much for taking the time with me
Joe
