I tried altering my grip, ball position, and stance to determine the cause. Finally, I realized that the club at the top of the swing was in too close to my head meaning that I had collapsed my left arm too much. When your takeaway is longer back to the mitt, and then up the tree, the club will be away from your head at the 12:00 position. You will feel the extension and then the ability to pull the club down the tree and into the strong t finish. As an experiment, get into your stance and swing your arms by collapsing the left arm at the top, the club being closer to your head, and you will feel a lack of power and inability to finish the swing with a full rotation. You typically compensate with leaving the club face open at impact with no rotation of your arms. Then try with a full extension of the club back to the mitt and up, and you should feel the difference immediately.

So many thanks..you've made my day bloody great mate! J.Griffin,

Actually just south in Fort Mill SC. Stayed with my brother-in-law who lives around the corner forn Carowinds park. We golfed some nice courses, Charlotte Links, Springfield, Reniasonse, and a few other just a little south on I-77. All nice courses. The weather was in the 40's but dry. I was told that it had rained quite a bit prior to my coming down so the courses were still a little wet, but all in all a heck of a lot better than what we had here in NY. He tells me that its been in the 20's with some snow. Looking forward to going back for the Quail Hollow Champ. which I was able to attend last year, even followed Sean O'Hair for a while. Anyway love it down there and may even make the move some time in the future. to Ronnie McCurry,

Griffin Wed, 03 Feb 2010 20:04:32 +0000 http://www.peakperformancegolfswing.com/?p=5885#comment-61062 Ray, I think the way you approach set up is a very individual thing. I do it quite different. I come to the ball from the left side starting from behind the ball once I have picked in intermediary target, something about 18" to 2 ft in front of the ball that is now my aiming targer. I step in with my right foot and set the club head square to the targer line then bring in the left foot. I adjust is need be but usually I have a feel for where the right foot is going by the length of club that I have. At this point it really doesn't make a difference where your weight is. As long as you PLHR before back swing you're ok. To those who this may be new to I can see that it has to be a thought process as part of the set up. I've set up heavy right for years even before using the PPGS system. About the only thing I had to do differently from my normal golf swing was bow my knees. I've always been verticle in my swing and pretty much 3/4 shoulder turn. Once you get in your stance and you feel comfortable, just put the load on the right side and you're done. Ray,
