Do you mean to tell me even with hazardous duty pay you don't make 50 g's per anum? How can you afford to play golf and by beer for Kev and me?
Next hcp period may be even lower. Be careful.
As for putting. Are you tracing the target line with pp#3 with a little focus also on pp#1? I am finding great success with that and looking at the hole. Sometimes closing my eyes does wonders as well. Of course, it is easy to do those things with a nice plain putter without all the distractions smeared across the top.
The government then does me a huge favor, really! They are so nice!
They take more than 1/2 my shekles because I'm an idiot and I don't know what to do with that money!
So, I make my wife go to work so we can afford cable, a dinner at Appleby's every month and the co-pays for our medical coverage. (They take half of her salary, too!) We don't go to the doc's a lot though since there are a lot of people there.
You see, doctor's don't practice much by us since they are all getting sued for medical mistakes and pain and suffering. The government now has this cool new idea. They will pay the doctor's less money to see old people, like me, so they can see 30 million new illegal aliens, for less money.
I can't wait for the government's next cool new idea! It'll probably be something neat like killing myself to make room for those 30 million new illegals (actually, that is only the population of illegals west of Nevada) who are younger, stronger, and more productive and who will work for $10 a day. Or maybe, I can give even more of my earnings to the government!
God, I love being an American under this regime; they are so kind!

Frankly, City, I don't see much difference between the last admin and this one. The same folks are getting richer and the rest of us are paying their share and ours.
I'm not defending any group of losers by pointing out the flaws of the current mob.

The emperor is not wearing any clothes and he keeps thinking and saying he is!
"I love you man!"
Moe Norman redux...wide Anchors, Steady Head, Both Arms Straight (Impact Fix, heavy EA) trace to shoulder (TSP)/turn shoulder back to plane (SSP) with EA, Pivot pulls left hand # 2 pp (thumb) to aim point/sternum turn/shoulder up/belly button turn...practice moving Impact Fix to Both Arms Straight to measure and prep Pivot to carry Both Arms straight DOWN, OUT, and FORWARD along BLP and sub BLP 22 inches past impact. This is possible only as the Pivot carries the Impact Fix Hands, intact, filled with EA, UP, BACK, and IN. Ball Position at my front toe for 2 wood or driver depending on Hinge selection and desired trajectory and shape. Farther up promotes left to right flight and further back promotes the opposite shape. Thumb position of left hand IS CLUB FACE.

Thanks to my peeps here at LBG, I "marched" into the missing piece and an 84/78 !

Daryl, OB Left, KevCarter, JerryG, Yoda's Luke, Yoda, EdZ and others had tried to get me to see the elephant in the room but I was blindfolded and could not see or smell.
I slid my right foot back this morning at 6:25am and marched back with my right foot and then my left foot. My shoulder stayed on plane. My power was almost effortless and once I figured out the ball positions my irons were more crisp than my wife's excellent bacon.
I also lightened up on the EA and I still had plenty of structure to my wedges. Even my dreaded driver cooperated with a slight draw and even a slight fade on request.
We still have aeration marks in two of our nine hole tracks which misdirected several chips and putts during the first 18 (44/40) so I made up my mind to just hit it closer on the second 18 (38/40). The first 9 holes on the second round was a track I did not play earlier.
All day long, I felt like my left leg was a cement post. It felt solid and I swung around it easily. The extension and whip of the club around me was amazing. I hit several drives (albiet with hard ground) to places I never got to before. I did not go over the top all day!
I feel like the light has just gone on and I am excited about what the Pivot can do for me. I will be ordering VJ's stuff, too.
Thanks guys!
Patrick

When automatic swivels happen to level left-wristed people!

Notes to self: Start with your left wrist being level with Standard Address (Mid-body hands) (No need to be Moe Norman RIP!) Very unusual looking flat left wrist (cocncave) at wrist cock position. (Thanks, Kevin, Jerry, and Yoda, Holla!). Is that the "bulletproof " arched left wrist in yoda's driver video?
Very easy/slight marching motion cocks left wrist. Keep head still and make a slight bump left, or shoulder up left, or a small march. Watch the vertically uncocking left wrist slam DOWN into the ball and finish swivel automatically!!!! Remember Jeff's story of a guy who taught "stopping" at impact to get the DOWN! Remember Lynn's vertically uncocking left wrist video! PIVOT DOWN!! "...and that ball will act a whole lot differently!"
Ball in front of left shoulder and an even smaller left march to watch club overtake the left arm and fire the driver like a bullet down range and straight!. Jerry mentioned this drill and mentioned elsewhere. Practice monitoring the left hand as clubface. In swinging, it does feel like "one long swivel" through the ball! Small left march = big driver bullet-like trajectory. Keep head still and watch it buzz away with H.Hinge. Angle Hinge at toe WILL SLICE! Learn right foot back and head positions for precision!
Don't forget that you use a lighter Extensor Action to give shape to the Power Package and allow for swivel to "stick left thumb in your ear." (Address Routine Videos watch them, watch Barclay's video!) Practice the RFT from Mid-body hands and point # 3 PP straight to God or be an Indian (native ) chief saying "How?"
With RFT and Irons, belly-button turn really drags the wedges through with lots of delay, left foot out and Pivot is very strong with extra carry to shot and straight! Mountain-climbing!
SETUP WITH LEVEL LEFT WRIST/Right Hand sightly under. Monitor the concave left wrist vertically cocked from Standard Address, March or RFT with light EA, March left or BB with HH.

The video of Yoda, vertically uncocking the left wrist is my go to shot!

NOTED TO SELF!
Take vertically cocking level left wrist to shoulder level slowly, with balance and rest and brush the ground to see where club enters DOWN. Put the ball in front.
Rehearse Jeff's slow structured power package w/ lighter EA AND HH through the front shoulder. YOU ARE MAINTAINING THE WEDGES TO THE SWIVEL; YOU ARE NOT TIMING THROWAWAY! (thanks KC and JG ).
REHEARSE THIS! With the driver, hit inside left heel (remember 90 degree seperation from clubface and clubface toe alignment) with the HH and let the Finishing Swivel happen with a shorter front Pivot with EA. EA allows the transition of HH to Swivel. (Too much is block or right shoulder freeze and hook while too little hits the ball with the Swivel to 45 degrees left or the person or tree beside you!)
LEVEL LEFT WRIST, LIGHT EA THROUGHOUT, HH, SLOW BACK PIVOT, SHORT FRONT PIVOT!
LEAH'S SLOW AND SHORT!
GET CHIPS AND PUTTS 1 CUP PAST THE HOLE!
