A report on the progress of the new "spin" type down swing.
I've found the take away and getting the club position at the top correct, to be fairly easy to do.
Spinning down, aka, not sliding and then playing catch up the hands has worked pretty well.
I played today and hit two wild shots, but the rest were pretty solid and straight down the middle.
One of the interesting parts of a lot of golf practice is that my calluses and moving around.
They are getting close to where Hogan wants them and have shown up on the inside of my right thumb -- something new there!
Otherwise smaller two fingers on the left hand and second and third fingers of right hand.
So I conclude that what I am trying to do seems to work. I just have to get better at repeating it.
Short game was a bit off on the front nine, I was concentrating on the long game. It seems hard for a golfer of my modest caliber to concentrate on too much at once. Did better on the back nine, shot 2 over or so.
As Pelz would say, "it only takes 20,000 repetitions to make it seem normal." I was told that Anika's pop up head move took her a mere 5 years. So I hold out hope that I can get the job done.
