The good news is that it can be straightened out. Here's some progress I've made, with the top pic being less than a month ago (it may be hard to see since it has a black graphite shaft, but if you look closely you can see the club shaft going down by my left foot with a flip action of the wrists) Now here's an impact position I taped on Tuesday. So, don't give up hope. I played with a flip for 20 years. I'm not some golfing genius by any stretch. One of the brilliant parts of Homer Kelley's work is the drills give the golfers the correct mechanics and then let the golfer come up with their own subjective feel. Once I understood that, my swing and game improved. In fact, I believe I looked like the top pic last week. Once you get it, you will 'own it' and probably laugh at really how simple and easy it is. Then curse the fact that you wish you were doing this all along. Just keep doing the drills, with basic motion first, then acquired, then full motion and concentrate on feel and that will be the gateway to golf swing nirvana. 3JACK Richie3Jack View Public Profile Send a private message to Richie3Jack Find all posts by Richie3Jack
