This is really fabulous instruction. How often will you be bringing out the remaining 3 segments?

[@LowerMyHandicap-today]

Ya. I absolutely love this series. Worked on my swing all yesterday. I Just put up the second one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5zcaH6qdryViLM Should get the others up tomorrow.

One of his instructions was the bellybutton drill on takeaway, now it’s preset the club. Which one do we follow?

[@douglasgyi]

Nick picked up the club straight away,as opposed to the first method which turn the body,which is correct.?

[@brianschultz7320]

When it comes to the lead hand grip, I’d rather feel the club in my fingers rather than in my palm. The palm grip leads to an unstable and unpredictable club face, and it prevents me from hinging correctly.

Too much in the fingers seems to give me too much shaft lean with an open face. The joys of golf. 1000s of puzzle pieces, getting the chosen pieces to match is a whole different story.
