Well, just getting back to my begginner's level study of TGM after a nineteen month hiatus. A little rusty boys, so hang in there with me. Long story short, "the #3 PP and left thumb are now on the aft side of the clubshaft". And I'm sure my AI showed me this during one of our only two meetings, a few years back.
Problem is, as I've been slowly working my swing back-in-to-being in the comforts of my personal driving range (okay, living room) I just noticed I've been running my left thumb directly down the center of the clubshaft. Not the aft. And thus, in the immortal words of 1968 Master's loser Roberto DiVincenzo...
So, how much on the aft side is the left thumb? I know questions like this are nearly impossible to answer in b/w terms, approximation? I have to say, with the thumb on the aft side of the clubshaft though, impact fix feels much less tense for some reason. It also feels like the the clubshaft is just perfectly matched to #3 pp and like I'm about to crush a 5i about 210. Or, hit a violent snipe/hook just over my own left foot.
