Common Problems

[lagster]

Some of the most common problems(symptoms) I see with golf Strokes...

1. Very Steep Downswing Plane...similar to 10-7-G THE LOOP, with "HIGH RIGHT FOREARM," and/or "ROUNDHOUSING."

2.Throw-away, Scooping, Bent Left Wrist/Flat Right Wrist at Impact

3. Various Pivot Malfunctions... Bobs, Sways, Weight Transfer Problems, Getting way up on toes/ with both heels off ground at Impact, etc.

Let's start with #1. The book indicates PIVOT CORRECTION is the answer for this one.

What processes, procedures, drills, training aids, etc., have you found the most helpful with this one?

This is the one issue I think troubles me the most. I don't think my DS is particularly steep, but I know that I do roundhouse somewhat. I guess I thought I had this issue licked but a couple holes into a round it comes back.

I find that in practice (indoors) I can keep it in check pretty well by striving for pitch elbow condition. On course however, that roundhouse move creeps back in. Again, in practice the focus is in the feel vs target so its easier.

I have viewed my swing on tape plenty, and a small but noticeable shoulder swerve starts my downswing, and pulls are the result. I'm sure its more noticeable on the course. My swing used to be all shoulder motion during takeaway and downswing, its tough to shed those old habits.
