Address vs. Impact Position

[hg]

Here's VJ at address & impact ....same swing sequence with impact overlayed on address....note head is in virtually same location....hips more forward & right shoulder lower at impact.

Really great, hg. Thanks!

The Impact Body condition is evident. Is there any way to highlight the Impact Hands condition?

On second thought, there's no need . . .

Just reference 9-2-1-#1 and 9-2-10-#1.

This may help....address photo ...impact photo....overlay photo w/both hand positions shown a little better (note his watch).

Remember to enlarge picture by clicking a second time once the picture opens after the 1st click

V. J. Trolio in Photo #2 above is a wonderful model for Impact:

1. Left Wrist Flat and Right Wrist Bent.

2. Both Wrists vertical (perpendicular) to the ground (the Horizontal Plane).

3. Hands beneath Left Shoulder . . . 'Nowhere near the Ball' . . . Clubshaft Forward Lean.

4. Body 'comparatively squared away', with a Hip Slide parallel to the Delivery Line and slightly left of its Address location (see Photo #3). The Body's minimal circular Motion has not Pulled the Hands viciously inside the Line. Always feel Motion 'parallel' to the Delivery Line (Plane Line / Target Line) throughout the Stroke.

5. Feet and Knees quiet -- supporting the Hip Motion, not driving it.

6. The Head is in precisely the same location -- there has been no Sway or Bob.

Here's the entire swing with some reference lines
