How about some homework?

Hi Mike:
For extra credit, how about creating an article or video showing us how the body works in the golf swing. It would be great if you could give us checkpoints and practice tips, something to train during the cold winter months.
For some, your straight line delivery may be all that's needed. But some may have the trail hip popping forward during the downswing, leading to shanks and all other kinds of crummy shots (sound familiar). You and BM posed me during golf school, and I'm working hard on regaining those "feels". A how to instruction series should benefit everyone.

Thanks,
Wayne

Wayne,

Sounds like a great idea - I will put out some winter training tips soon

How do you keep the trail hip from popping forward too soon?

[Michael Jacobs]

Dodger,
The trail hip gets out of sequence if 'you get under' the sweet spot. One of the biggest training cues should be to train the hand conditions. A small club and some close monitoring of what was discussed in Video Tip #10 is the gateway

Ah, clarity, I have been focusing on holding the hip back, as usual the answer lies in educated hands. Thanks Mike. I have been looking hard at chapter 6, you are right, there is a lot of good info in that chapter.
