What are your thoughts about taking the club straight back 'x' length while keeping the back elbow near the hip (so one is not swinging inside to out)?

?name=C%20S&rounded=true&size=256

Invaluable tip from someone with tendencies to pull the ball. Your explanation of hitting the outside of the ball and what that typically means is simlpy awesome. Thank you so much!

?name=G%20K&rounded=true&size=256

This is great, especially for the approach shot, which for me has tended to be inconsistent. I’ll be trying this on the course shortly.

My alignment is always an issue. This simple tip (trail elbow/trail hip) makes alignment quite simple.

great explanation and demonstration of the easiest way to execute the concept of shallowing. Wished I'd seen this sooner - only took me 4 years to discover on the range the idea of keeping my trail elbow in at set up :))))

?name=J%20F&rounded=true&size=256

completely sensible, and works well (as you said) with a sand wedge. Simplified swing setups with shorter clubs are especially important with us 70 + golfers who tend to stiffen up a bit ! You emphasized rotation rather than 'dropping the club into', which can keep the mind on the backswing rather than ball to target. thanks

?name=L%20S&rounded=true&size=256

when you turn the logo inside should your path push the ball out toward the right or straight toward the target?

?name=C%20H&rounded=true&size=256

Great tip!

?name=D%20J&rounded=true&size=256

Great information

?name=J%20K&rounded=true&size=256

Excellent tip. Shallowing the clubface makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
