Norm's Month Of May Recap

Long time no update! I have been working hard on a few key fundamentals this month, in addition to the core fundamentals that I have been working on with Steve Bishop. Namely, posture, balance, and tempo. I decided earlier in the month "I would rather have a nice calm balanced swing and a bad shot, than an out of control swing (in which I almost fall over) where I hit the ball ok". Believe it or not, I am actually hitting the ball further and more consistently straight with my new "under-control" swing! Who'd of thunk it!

With my posture, I am trying to avoid "hunching" over as Tiger is demonstrating in the shot to the left (below). Notice how in the shot to the right Tiger's back is straight, and he is closer to the ball as he isn't bending too much at the hips. This actually helps my swing plane get more upright as well:
