A friend asked me to write down what I am doing with my practice. This is what I came up with. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Rick
First I pick a spot about a foot or so in front of the ball on my target line. From an angle behind the ball, with my chest facing about 60 degrees to the right of target. I take the club in my right hand only, held lightly between thumb and forefinger with the heel-pad touching the grip. I am thinking of the right fore-arm flying wedge at this time. I aim clubface a little left of target with a forward leaning shaft. I then step into stance with left foot, then right foot. The grip end of the club looks like it is in front of my left thigh. I take my left hand grip with flat left wrist in line with the club-face. I move my left thumb toward the rear, to fit into heel-pad gap, feeling the pressure of PP #1. I maintain this impact alignment. Head bent down with eyes looking directly at ball, not thru the bottom of eyes. Feel the right fore-arm on plane again. This feels like a higher hands position to me. Right arm is lower than left with right elbow lightly touching the side of the right hip. I try to feel good posture at this point. Using extensor action, I waggle slowly feeling a slight left forearm swivel back, up, and in, and the right hand moving on plane. The feeling should be Slow, Deliberate and Heavy. I then make the back-swing to approximately two feet back. Visualize a straight line from the club-head back to the inside quadrant of the ball and drive the hands and clubhead down this line. I try to think only of PP#1 and #3 during the swing. Keep head very steady during swing. Keep balance on left heel. Maintain rhythm (endless belt) Swing to follow thru about two feet forward (both arms straight). No body movement at all, feels like right arm is doing all the work. Right elbow folds, and then it straightens out.
