Always check your set up! Review over and over and over the Sagutogolf set up videos. Grip (check), posture?...POSTURE! Why the many chunky monkey miss hits this season? I was hitting them good last season! Why? Why? Why?...New clubs? (Check) Yes, nice and shiny! New clubs? Oh, that's right! I forgot! The new clubs are a 1/2" longer than my old set. Not a huge change in posture but there is a slight noticeable difference of a long distance relationship to the ball and that difference was keeping me from becoming crispy. What a nightmare! Especially, when preparing for an upcoming tournament. (Even though I'm getting closer to my first ace)
SET UP! SET UP! SET UP!
Feet? (Check...flared, looking like a shortstop ready to sprint either direction) Weight? (Forward...Check) Straight arms? (Connected...Check) Oops! Ball position? (Check) Club shaft pointed at my belt? (Check...Not at my...a Chuck Berry song) What am I missing? Oh, just hit the @$%# ball!
Swing flaws and miss hits??? Go back to the foundation FIRST! Without a solid foundation, your 'house' will not stand regardless how well it is built. Lesson learned...lesson absorbed. Moving forward with the drills...ðĪŠ (I wished golf was easier to play than hockey!) ðâģðïļââïļ
If you FLIP using a cheese wedge, does it become a government cheese wedge? ð Ok...ok...thank you...thank you...you've been a wonderful audience. Um, I'll just show myself out the door, now.
Spot on, @johnpfistnerjr! And exactly the reason I posted this KFC Club video titled "Your Setup is Your Swing".
Great reminder for everyone in the school - check your foundation for cracks before you start rebuilding your house!
