Yeah, I think youre right. I had a long range session this morning (its cold here in Scotland right now BTW .. snows started already )

Anyhow, I worked on a few things and tried a few things out and what I worked out was that although my arms/shoulders were seemingly getting into the right position coming down, there was little or no lower body movement. I was just working the arms down without moving forward. I then found I was kind of just rotating around my back leg and I could see when I did this in slow mo that my club face would always be open

Anyway then I tried a few things to get the weight moving again, by far the best of which was a conscious drive of the legs(knees) towards the target (stepping hard on the left foot was also OK). I kind of drove the legs, whilst keeping the shoulders back, and was getting through the ball great but still a lot of cuts and pushes

Then I worked on the leg drive followed an instant later by rotating my upper body hard left, what I *think* was a finish swivel .. and I started nailing a lot of balls a long way .. best ive hit them for months

Anyway some stuff to work on there but I think I need to work on timing the weight shift then the rotation .. even though they're so close together its almost one movement but making sure I dont lapse back into rotation only with no 'forward' movement

Im blethering here I know but Im pumped from a good session and appreciate any feedback from the golfing gods here
