Thanks for the feedback.

I went to the range today and experimented a bit with the setup, sorted out the excessive forward lean but most importantly setup with my head a bit further behind the ball and with more axis tilt. Preset the right hip and wow it was amazing i was hitting my longest drives ever and felt a lot of rotation instead of a big lateral slide.

Seems like setting up with more tilt helped ensure i didn't get stuck and i could swing it on plane better. Is this a good thing or just something that may be short lived?

Cheers

If you move the Ball forward as I recommended above, you won't have to move your Head back.

And your current major problem on the Downstroke is excessive Hip Slide causing excessive Axis Tilt. Why would you want to encourage that situation at Address?

I suggest you spend a lot of time in Basic and Acquired Motion. Assemble your Stroke Components in the order listed, and you will replace the vagueness of tired bromides -- "Get your head behind the ball" -- with the precision alignments of The Golfing Machine. The roadmap is there, and it will save you endless hours of fruitless agony in what Hogan called "the labyrinth of your own making."
