Hey Craig, Just a heads up - I was having issues with consistency until I focused on your one piece take away video that you had awhile back and keeping the wrists loose in this short swing. I went from 6/7/8s to 9/10s instantly.

Great Fred! Takeaway isn't the focus in Phase 1 but excessive roll or movement can hurt the quality of reps/shots in the early going.

Thank you Fred. Glad you are enjoying the series. I had a couple setbacks. I hope to start filming phase 2 later this week.

I just graduated from phase 1 to phase 2. When you do the practice sessions on phase 2 do you do a few phase 1 type of shots to get warmed up? Also in Chuck's explanation of the phase 2 he talks about letting go of the right hand. Would those set of 10 reps count on the tracker or no? I noticed my tendency is definitely a big push with my right shoulder and right hand especially right pointer finger pushing. I feel like I need to train my right hand after years of early release and casting.

Hello Matthew. You can include the let go versions, but the goal will still be to have both hands on completing a proper 9 to 3 length move. I think warming up with a few Phase 1's is a great idea.

Hi Craig, This might have been answered elsewhere but are you controlling these smaller swings with the Axiom, ie your right foot? If so, is the correct method for smaller swings to do the clockwise motion faster or to use a narrower radius in the foot?

Hello Shane. I am focusing more on my lead foot at this point. When I start to add speed I will be incorporating the Axiom/Trail footwork movement. At this stage I wouldn't say you need to do it faster but a tighter radius.

Hi Craig, When you post up on the lead side, you have your lead hip above your lead knee and ankle. But the lead side of your upper body seems to hang back a little. Is that because of maintaining your axis tilt? So when you are talking about stacking up on the lead side, the goal and focus is only on your lower body?

Hello Stefan. The majority of my swings the shoulder is stacked in NJA. While doing Phase 1 I am working hard on maintaining the axis tilt so you may see it be a tiny bit too much especially since I am trying to hold impact going through. We will see in future episodes as I have the tendency to get too much secondary tilt. For sure a problem I know will have to be tackled. Coincidentally what creates to much secondary tilt (pushing too much from the trail side and getting my hip ahead).
