Craig, Just wanted to send you a quick update.

Jonathan N · · Boise, ID
Hi Craig, Just wanted to send you a quick update. So I've really been working on shifting my weight to the right side before starting my swing, and it helps me sync up my body on the backswing and downswing. Also, not getting lag is a thing of the past now; been hitting my 8 iron over 175 yards. I do notice that I get a bit less distance with the driver as I do release the right hand on impact (haven't gotten to keeping R hand on the club the entire time yet), although I'm hitting my irons just insane distances. Eventually I would like to train keeping R hand on the club the whole time, any tips for this? Also, my miss has been hitting off the heel. UK guy from golf TV says its cause I'm trying to align the shaft with the sweet spot (like in baseball or tennis) and I need to offset and throw the shaft inside the ball). Is that good advice or any other drill to help with this or anything you can see in the videos? Thanks! Hope all is well, Jonathan

Hello Jonathan. Hope all is well. My suggestions from the swing. Maintain a little more trail knee flexion in the backswing as well as tilt. You can see you get very upright with the driver. When making the backswing you are raising your posture a touch. Try to keep the spine more stable when loading/rotating. The transition you get a bit rushed. If you have a little bit more clockwise movement it should clean up impact. Take a look at Step 5 - Add the Trailing Arm for a good sequence of how to start keeping the hand on.
