Lesson with Jack
I went down to Sea Island last week for a lesson with Jack Lumpkin. I was very happy with where my swing was. What I had been working on before I took a little break was exactly what the doctor ordered. I just need to keep working on my right side stability and getting my arms more in sync with my body. We also noticed some movement in my right hand grip at the start of the backswing and addressed that. The video of my swings is pretty good and I am going to try to put it up on the website.
We also worked on my chipping and putting. Much of what I’m working on with my full swing applies to my chipping as well. Stable right hand grip and get my arms working more with my body instead of behind it. No changes to my putting…everything looked pretty good there.
The video from the lesson got me thinking that it would be nice to see a progression of my full swing from when I started working with Jack until now. I have video of every lesson that I’ve taken with him. A few are on VHS, so I will have to convert them to digital before I post them. It’s a good-sized project that might take me a while to complete, but I think it will be very interesting to see the progression.
