What were some of the things that Bobby identified in his own swing that he wanted to work on?
His biggest issue was
failing to cock his wrists at the top of the back swing when using his short to medium irons. He also believed he hung on to the club a little too tight and this throws off his rhythm.
“I like to feel the head of the club all the way through the stroke. Unless I use my wrist freely, my swing loses all of its snap and I have neither power
nor control.”
With his long irons he sometimes found himself ‘snatching’ the club back. He takes the club back so fast that it upsets balance. He found he hits the ball better when his backswing is very leisurely.
When he is hooking the ball badly, he usually traces this issue back to his left side. He finds his left hip resisting instead of actually leading through the ball.
