Float Loading and Timing

Been going back to Kelvin Miyahira's stuff now that more and more people seem to be getting results with his stuff. Especially this guy.

Pretty amazing transformation I wish I could do it that that quickly. I'm going on 4 years now, but I really do love the journey and discovery aspects. But for all the intense work I do I should have better results I think sometimes.

Right Thumb

First I changed my right thumb to be shorter and more pinched with my index finger. I noticed I was regripping my driver literally at the top of my backswing to this position and it was throwing off my swing. Funny it doesn't happen with the irons though.

Back to Kelvin

I've been inspired by this video which is so exaggerated since he's a long hitter and 18 years old that it helps me develop swing thoughts.


Here's my take at low power really trying to visualize the positions with an 8 iron. It's possible for me to physically get there so the barrier must be the wrong thoughts at full speed.


I shanked this one but who cares I'm only looking at body positions and club face rate of closure. I never thought I'd be able to be so close the ground and still swing the club. It's the most unintuitve feeling if you're just starting golf.

Float Loading and Timing

So I'm thinking that there's no way you can "hold off" to get more lag. The centripetal force is just too great. So I've been playing around with timing of the load and release of the club and trying to do some float loading. I'm really trying to get that feeling that at impact the shaft is pressed up against the outside of my right bicep. This makes the release much later so the ROC is low through impact and I would think gives that elusive right elbow bend. 



Been looking at Gary Woodland's swing lately wow that is a really nice swing!
