Lateral Right to Lateral Left Pivot

[BurleyGolf]

Watching some video from the other day I noticed that I have a "LOT" of hip turn going back. I had been seeing the club go back okay and then when it was suppose to be going up it was behind my butt. As I worked on the right arm takeaway I thought I corrected the problem and I had not. So I got to looking at the pivot, I have been scared to death to transfer my weight to my right side but have been trying to load my weight into the inner right thigh. What I found is that I am not really getting into that leg at all and look to be getting to my left to quick from the massive hip turn (Like a fast Hogan or S&T). The massive hip turn on the down swing starts to fire but stal's out and there is no chance to clear like lets say Duval or Hogan with the butt facing the DTL at impact.

So, I decided to pull out the drawing board and work on different pivots and hinge points. The pivot I have landed on is as I am taking it back with my right hand/forearm I move into my right leg lateral, but I do not slide over it. What this lets me do is the slight lateral move to the right leg keeps the hips still from over turning as I get the club to waist high out in-front of me.

Then I started playing with hinge points, and what I found was kinda neat. So, the club is waist high and the lateral right has keep the hips from turning much. I start to hinge the club up like it is going through my ear, but on video it is splitting my right arm. I have tried to go to the top like this but the club looks a little across the line, so what I did to correct that is to hinge by pushing the palm of the left hand away from me laying the club off a bit.

As I am reaching the top, my hips have started to turn, but change direction from the lateral left pivot. I let the hands then free falls back to the aiming point and I am clearing much better from the lack of the massive hip turn on the back swing.

I have been trying to work the shot process out to what I am consistently getting, I will hit a high push, a low pull, and nice draw. I believe the high push is I am underneath on the way down and the hands do get to the aiming point, the low pull me flipping and not getting to the aiming point, and the nice draw well is free flowing. What I am not quiet finding is my patten cut/fade what I have been trying to do is hit the outside to cut/fade the ball but I do not like this. With my swing the One Plane Cut I try to attach from the inside with a hard rotary motion and basically hit a push/draw that fades at the end. I am all about learning though and, I am trying to put all the pieces together here. Like I had mention in another post, TGM has a lot of things that interest me and that I already believe in before finding LB's forum.

If anyone wants to chime in on what I have mention above to the motion of the lateral right to lateral left pivot please feel free. We can only learn from one another mistakes and achievement's.

Thanks,
