Very 'solid' compression , plenty of leverage through the entire body.

I'd bet you're quite accurate with your short irons and wedges when you don't get too quick. Hard to miss by much with alignments like that.
Thanks Ed.

I don't worry about my left leg, or lower body in general for that matter. I am not trying to straighten my left leg. In fact, I really haven't spent much time working on my lower body in years. It's kind of sorted itself out as everything else fell into place.

Densikat: I really feel a slow startdown and right arm thrust accelerating into the ball. Being able to Hit has really made Swinging easier, because I can finally feel that "out-and-out pull" at startdown when I try to Swing. I suspect I always had a little too much right arm action in my stroke while I was trying to Swing and never realized it. Now, though, I can say to myself, "Don't feel any right arm thrust and pull instead" and then that allows me to know I'm applying Swinging correctly when I try.
