How many of you have a BACK-UP SWING? When your normal pattern is obviously not working for that day, do you have another swing ( it may really be more of a FEEL) to go to in order to save the round? You may have a certain shot you go to...stinger, etc, or go to Hitting, etc. Maybe you go to an old swing, or feel you once used with some success. You may go to your Jimmy Ballard swing that you once used, or your Leadbetter swing. I think often these end up being more of FEELS. People may not even notice you changed much of anything, except that the ball is behaving.

What do you think?
when the fairway jumps around to avoid my ball- I follow the little voice in my head and I "Go Hit, young man Go Hit!" I wonder why I don't Hit from the start? I played my best round ever on an Ocean blown windy day- Hitting for 18 holes. Go figure.
TGM = FEEL The others are mish-mashes of information that uses 'Feel' as a starting point because they can't verify their mechanics. Feel is the end product, not the beginning.
My back-up is relatively new and based on cut shot therapy.
I also change from a 10-2-B grip to a 10-2-D grip and forgo #3 acc. roll for a nice little slider. My favorite is a 3 barrel angled hinge hit with the driver.
My negative tendency is not to committ to uncock and roll on line, so an angled hinge and the resultant fade is my go to deal
Ritter a p.g.a. pro gave me this idea...............and i feel its worth sharing....
We always want to improve.....and sometimes we get in our own way
here is something that might help
on the downswing......feel as though you have a yardstick connected from your sternum to the ground................and try to push (maybe move is a better word) the yardstick "1 inch into the ground"...on the downswing........it might keep us in good position
