Golf 2

While we're on the subject I might as well continue on. The post below talks about my trip to Pinehurst. I noticed the video posting thing on here so I thought I'd show anyone who wants to see... my golf swing....

Not bad... But I have a ton of stuff I'm still going to work on. I want to get more flexible so I can have a larger amount of shoulder turn on the back swing with more body control. Right now I try to turn but am not flexible enough to really get back there without getting weight out on my toes (which doesn't usually result in good things). I'd also like to be able to hold the angle between my arms and the shaft a little bit longer before contact. Angle retension leads to more power and right now I have a little bit of a power lapse going... (even though on this trip I was still hitting the ball 280-330 most of the time off the tee)... I think most of my problem is synchronizing my hip turn and shoulder turn through the ball. When it comes together, its a beautiful thing. But yeah, sometimes it doesn't.

Golf is funny like that, you can be off by a split second with something and that little twitch has the capability to really set back your round. More later maybe...
