When I think OTT, the first thing I think is lack of Hula-Hula... That is where I would start...

It would be interesting to hear in what way the Hula-Hula can help in getting rid of OTT. Can you elaborate on this?

My opinion is many times OTT is cased by improper sequencing of the swing. If the hands or shoulders start the club down, it's very easy to get OTT. Hogan taught starting from the ground up. Others teach starting with the left knee moving forward first. I believe Homer Kelley starts with the hips, Hula-Hula, and that takes care of the feet and knees. Hula-Hula, getting your left hip forward a couple of inches over your left foot, allows you to start the shoulders and club down "On Plane" rather than OTT.

Kevin, when I do my HULA well, and keep my FLW with a stiff PP # 2 (thanks Daryl), My Hit is soooo DOWN that I worry about my toes! It is sooo different than a Swingers Start-up Swivel! The curtain rods really helped with that feeling (thanks Yoda and Paul -Golf-Guru)!

What's the ball doing? Slicing? Hooking? Relatively straight?
