Rotary instructors I have a minor issue I tend to swing a bit tentatively at.

Hi Rotary instructors I have a minor issue I tend to swing a bit tentatively at times maybe pressure gets to me basically I don’t finish my backswing . Is this just fixed by lots of reps completing my full backswing? I’ve been left side dominant since just before joining Rotary swing but im going to a mixed approach where I bring the right hand in for some shots especially with longer clubs reason being it’s better with longer clubs especially woods thats because I tend to hit up a bit or level when I start throwing the right hand in I get more power and hit towering high shots which are kinda cool ???? lob shots so I can land longer clubs on greens even a 3 wood. I swang my driver at 106 today at the end of the session so loads more to come will be back to 110 plus but with loading the glute and from the inside I’m well happy. What do you think of the mixed approach I think it’s good ???? Even though I hit level or slightly up I still compress it with irons I got an old book where the guy calls em lob shots but never associated it with longer clubs thanks

Hello Ronald. Usually the rush in the backswing means you are just doing it with your arms when you get tentative. A big key to help this is solely focus on you pressure shifts and rotation to start the swing. If you are starting the arms/hands too soon you won't finish your turn. Also, the mixed approach can be a little tough but I comprehend the theory. If you are lead side and use some trail for more speed on certain shots I don't think you will go too far astray.
