annikan- just to understand this concept a little better, the correct way to play a downhill shot is the exact opposite of butch harmon's advice in Butch's Basics on p. 40 of the aug '06 golf digest ... i.e. the correct way is NOT to align your shoulders to the slope, right?
I do not believe I mentioned NOT aligning shoulders to slope..I was referencing the Center of Gravity of the human machine which changes the alignment of the spine and the location of the center of gravity...
BTW....First of All....I would never listen to a Harmon again.....One of them told me that I'd never make it on tour with my swing...well he got the first part right...I'd never make it on Tour..but do you think any of the Harmons swing better than this?
And second.....Tiger left Butchie for more than one reason....Do you think if he goes back he regain his "dominance"?...no way... Tiger has taught all of his teachers....just like all the greats have taught us along the way...
Third ...Whose teaching O'Meara? Haney?

Ya man wtf exactly did he think was wrong with your swing?...lol...
That's just funny.
Yeah..WTF....At the Time as a "Rook"..I believed him(one of the Mr. Harmon's) because of "who he was"...Thanks to him I started this "freakin" journey of complexity to get it "right" ...due to "my rabbit ears"...I searched for 17 long years to arrive at the same place that I began with more precision.."My Authentically Aligned Swinging Procedure"..as opposed to my "Learned Hitting Procedure".... Should've listened to PGA Tour Official, Mickey Bradley..."Son..whatever you do...don't ever change your swing" ....Following week...lesson with a Harmon..should've listened to the "Ole Mick"...He's "seen em come and seen em go"..I was one that went..the wrong way!!!

ok, let's see then the correct way to play this shot is to move the COG in the direction of the hill (i.e. right for a right-hander) but also to align the shoulders to the slope - is that right? question re: COG ... is that upper COG, lower COG or both? thanks.
re: whose teaching O'Meara ... is Plummer/Bennett, correct?
