Takes awhile to believe the simplicity and effectiveness of RFT!

I'm struggling with my takeaway as I transition from hitting nice impact fix wedges on the range to the real course where I am adjusted with flat R wrist.
The simplicity of the RFT threw me off for awhile. I have to wait one more day before going to the range but I'm excited to "take up the slack" and continue to Hit experimenting with a closed face on my longer clubs!

There were no spots on the range and the two putting greens were clogged, but we could find an open 9 so I sent my 19 guys at practice today to play 9 holes. I filled out the last 4-some. I RFT'd my way around for just one bogey and the rest pars. If a few of those putts would have gone in... Thanks for the idea Patrick.

Did you drop the elbow or slowly fire #2 after taking up the slack? On the Ted Fort Golf Channel video, he plainly says that Body Pivot ="Taking up the slack!" Err, I think he does, trying it today!!

Sometimes, I swear, Hitting slower with my Adams old 9.5 Redline by maintaining the wedges and dropping the elbow explodes the ball! Maybe the slower heavier hit magnifies the ball compression or the shaft bend or line of compression or

Hitting is the bomb Jerry!

Get a hockey stick....hand it to your wife or somebody that has no clue about golf....watch how the move the stick...with the "square" shaft there is no tendency to load the hockey shaft for Swinging...the blade of the hockey stick will be "shutty" locking...the right forearm will move "in line" with the shaft...there will be no swivelling and the face will stay "square" to the plane....work with the hockey stick and you'll learn how hitting works...



Serious drive loading here....right arm participation (left arm in this cat's case)....angled hinging layback....HITTING.

When I drive the base of my left thumb cross-line I must be engaging the Angle Hinge because of a right drift and the high, really high ball flight even with my Titleist ZB's !

However, when I RFT covering the curved line, and then simply drop my right elbow down, I have a little less elevation and sometime a little draw or straight ball.

Am I sort of "half-swinging?"
