    Posted on Wednesday December 2nd, 2009 at 20:32 in power, impact, drawing board, left leg, stack and tilt, hip turn

    Feeling pretty confident these days with my swing, but as always looking for more power (especially on these cold rainy days). I read an article in a golf magazine while taking the ferry last weekend about stack and tilt. It was a brief introduction...

    Posted on Monday October 26th, 2009 at 23:43 in progress, drawing board, right foot

    Still working on the ideas from “Secret in the Dirt”. It’s interesting.  I used to think an open stance meant control, but now I’m starting to think it can also mean power.  Here’s food for thought.  If I’m stan...

    Posted on Wednesday October 7th, 2009 at 00:51 in progress, right foot, sightline, hip turn

    Wow, another revelation!  The sightline / never-release feeling was the first and felt like the most important in years, now the second is a new hip turn which seems even more important.  Thanks to that e-book mentioned in the last entry, I think ...
