You can, but you need to open the face slightly to keep the leading edge off the ground. Or you can take a knuckle off, you have a lot of options. Did you see the short game section of the “how to go from Weak to Strong grip” series?

Same vertical as Bubba, Justin Thomas, Chris Gotterup, And half the tour! So yes, you want to strive for this and the best explanation is from your very own anatomy in the “dual pendulum swing series” 1 to 4

Hey Christopher!
what was the intent: hit the ball hard or let momentum release you into the direction of the flight through the ball and intermediate point?

I would go a different route; TASK!!
see task 2.0 and let me know which one resonates best with you and then we go from there!

Awesome!! 👍🔥

Yes! https://wisdomingolfpremium.com/new-lead-hand-backswing/

Wonderful. Thanks Shawn.

Means your grips moves during the swing. When you do the PMD, see what is happening in the grip dynamically.

Very good!!!

COG is different location when feet together vs feet apart. The big mistake I see is when someone sets up feet together and gets distance to ball and then spreads their feet without moving away from the ball. Feet together=closer to ball

Hey Steve!
what is your main task? What is the last thing going through your mind just before you swing the club?

to be honest I can’t say for sure! Probably back swing

Haha, well there is your culprit! Let’s start with the routine written down:

get comfortable with this and start executing with it; then we talk again!

Here is the Pre-shot routine’s non negotiable items
 
1-Best option for shot
2 rules: 1-Release into safe direction; never release towards trouble and draw or fade away from trouble; this puts unnecessary tension in the system with the “you better make sure you do this or that to not go there”
 2-No strain required to execute your shot; understand that you have 2 general yardages per club; one for the flush shot and one for the good miss about 12 yards short of the flush shot.  The good miss happens 82% of the time and the flush shot 18% of the time. This helps determine what club to use based on where the best place to miss will be. 

2-Once the shot option is chosen, confirm the flight plan-what line do you want to start the ball and what line do you want to end? (include roll out) 

3-Choose intermediate point; can be straight on or slightly off line, as long as it’s easy to see and well into your peripheral vision (6 to 12 inches in front of ball only) 

4-Confirm alignment of momentum-get ready to see the blur of the path of the club and match it to the ball and intermediate point and prepare to make the ball a PRECISE INTERSECTION on the way through the IP into the flight plan!   See the low point of this arc blur, which is about an inch in front of the ball with all clubs except the driver.  

5-Confirm ball position matches the flight plan and the direction you want to start the ball.

6-Confirm distance to ball and see that when you let momentum ride through the blur through ball and IP that you don’t feel the need to reach out from being too far or hold on from being too close and you can let it ride

7-Confirm Grip club relation; see that you know it will curve the way you want to in the air once you allow the momentum to release you through the arc-blur into the flight plan through ball and IP 

8-Confirm levels and low point with relaxed and engaged legs; legs are ready to heave the arms and club into the backswing that would match the direction of the flight plan; and feels like you are ready to allow that solid dose of momentum to ride through the arc-blur through the ball, the low point of the swing and IP into that flight plan

9-Ready? 
When over the ball, See the arc-blur already moving through ball and intermediate point through this low point.  You are feeling the arms and club already tracking the arc through the ball and intermediate point into a nice release snap and the body already gliding out of the way of these tracking arms.  What does that feel like again?  Oh yeah, about like this! This is the glue that holds EVERYTHING together is the letting the swing stay with the direction of flight and fully witness momentum taking care of that for you.

A lot of golfers in this camp!! Well worth your time!

I felt a freedom of backswing I hadn’t felt in a while! It also allowed for that release into the backswing we discussed on the pod, letting the levitation happen instead of having to sort of place it because my ACU ran out of room with the open stance and would crash into my pec

It also made your trigger move click more easily for me as well, with the additional space I’m able to really use the ground to heave that club into the hinge, which levitates it up. I can then really tune into that weight as it starts to fall. And something about starting from the ground up going back makes it so intuitive to start with the group up on the way through as well.

Off to a good start this year, cap has gone up slightly with some really good fall rounds coming off (standard for us northerners lol) but I looked apples to apples my 1st 15 rounds LY vs TY and I am 2.5 shots better so far!

None of the above! See “perpetual motion drill series”
And the “No Arms involved” series

Yes, that works! Especially if the ball is sitting up!
