Thanks, not sure I am sure if the answer is it is okay and not okay? I am just trying to experiment the right ways. My biggest concern like I said is the over use of the hips in the back swing, and it seems that if I make a latteral shift into my right leg that the hips do not start turning till I get the club going up! I played like this Sunday and 7 iron thru LW I was all over the pin, but the longer clubs all were big draws or pulls. Later in the round I noticed my set up was a little off and my left hip was very open after correcting this there was no problem, but felt like the power was less.

If I do turn into the inner right thigh like I teach, I over use my hips to much and as the club is parralle with the ground on the BS the head of the club gets behind my hands and buttox. That is the first problem!

The second problem is; when I turn my hips to much, I find on the DS that my hips get back to square at impact but they have spent the firing energy, only place to go is a little out as posture and erect, and then after impact a foot or so they fire again hard clearing. The little erect problem is mainly with the long irons and woods. Short irons not seen much.

Its funny I thought I was burrying my head on the DS, but my head stays perfectly still and in place. Its my mid section is humping the goat and keeping the hips from the continues rotation.

With this new lateral shift into my right leg, its funny there is no difference in the DS, I just get it into a better position @ the top with a delayed hip turn on the back swing. I guess that takes me back to my old beliefs; the only move that matters is starting the DS till Impact. Although the correct BS helps you get there, but there are so many variations of the BS, I watch the senior tour and confim that to myself every time I think else wise..

Thanks,
