blocking or getting stuck..

05-02-2006, 08:30 PM

I hear that tiger and some other golfers have trouble with thier hips out-racing their hands and they get stuck somethimes. Isn't your power determined by how fast you can turn your hips? And doesn't you hips start the swing therfore always out-racing your hands? If I try to turn my hips too fast I end up pulling the ball way left, the opposite of a block. does that mean I am turning my hips too slow?

Yes your hips lead, but the problem you can run into is that they get TOO far ahead and you end up making contact with the ball before you get squared up to the ball because your hips pulled your body too fast through the impact zone.
