left shoulder is protracted against left pectoral muscle at impact ...feel torso turn is propelling arm like a catapult into full extension ...feel the swing power comes from torso's sweeping rotation, NOT shoulders hitting at ball ...let right arm pronate naturally thru impact ...adds exponential power as this makes sweet spot of CF travel faster than hosel area ...transfers more power to the ball without additional effort ...bring chest a bit closer to the ball in DS and use extension of glutes to propel arms toward target ...Range thoughts 7/10/17

Definition of "Cover Ball" ..... Precisely at impact, sternum must be directly above ball (i.e. "covering" ball) and center of pelvis must be 2-3 inches fwd of ball ... this divirgence of centers is created by the hip turn starting the DS

extend right arm to almost straight in the DS whilst keep hands close to the body ....then turn and "tip out" clubhead
