Head down at contact

Been sick since last weekend but I'm finally over it and went to the range yesterday and played a round today. Really have been working on keeping head down at impact. I finally figured out an exercise to help which is consists of basically hitting some balls without looking at where they're going. Then what I do is see the ball go out the corner of my left eye and I even see kind of what the trajectory is. Then I look up after a while to see where the ball has gone. This allows my right shoulder to stay more square at impact and not come down to hit fat. It feels a little like I'm swinging across my body. Just another thing which I'm getting down to really make my swing better. I think it looks a lot better now. I'll have to film it while hitting balls to verify.

I've also been doing the exercise of swinging with my feet together. This also helps to let the club head do the work. Feeling better about my swing lately.

Oh yeah finally changed grips on my trusty vokey 56*/11*. What a difference it makes. It really is my go to club.
