GOAT CODE QUESTION So after following along from the start of the Goat Code I have had a mixed bag of results. I ultimately understand now that my main issue was take away and too long of a backswing… Through the Goat Code lessons I did feel a simplification of the swing through feels! However I found myself lose some of the good positions of my swing and other bad habits pop up… Ultimately I thought that the feeling of Wide, Glide , Wide was the culmination of the Goat code and was all we had to focus on through feels to hit the right positions… However by doing this I started to lose tucking the right elbow (GDP) Resulting in a bit of early extension. I also found I lost my good release and found myself holding off the release. I also developed a bit of a reverse C in the backswing from trying to replicate the baby goat video movement of pulling the trail shoulder back to initiate the move to the left… (This worked to naturally move to the left and I saw increased power… However you mentioned that the reverse C had to go…) I do notice on some videos when you show using the lead shoulder or trail shoulder to initiate the backswing that it appears that you have a slight arc as well… I am just finding that he deeper we go we are getting away from Wide, Glide, Wide and having to incorporate swing thoughts again… Takeaway with shoulders, drop shoulder to get into GDP, actively release the hands early to get the correct release (as shown with the new club release trainer…) Don’t get me wrong… I absolutely agree with everything you are saying and the theory aspect of the Goat Theory study… I just feel lost as to where to focus and how to do it without thoughts… How do we get back to simplicity through feels while hitting the correct positions?
