Background is in the last two posts.
What I wanted to try was an inside take away and then a slight over the top move to get back to the "slot."
I am curious about this because I am very comfortable to take the club back inside. What I think I struggle with is a move to get back to the slot and also a willingness to slide forward in front of the ball.
Sliding makes it very tough to hit it straight or anything else that one might want.
I found that inside and then a loop back was easy for me to do. It also seemed to keep me behind the ball a bit. When I don't slide then I don't have to "save" the shot with some aggressive hand action.
The hand action was causing some very impressive hooks and the occasional push. A tough combination to play with.
My ball flight was quite high and very straight. No misses to the left and the pushes seemed to be less of an issue.
I'm quite excited about this. The swing is more natural to me and the ball reaction better. All good things.
I'll play tomorrow and we'll see how well it does off the range.
Interestingly to me, it seemed to work for 30 yards pitches too. Chips were good as the right hand and the body rotation were tightly bound and controlled.
Ok, all things good and I'm eager to try it out.
Stay tuned!
