The caddie, I only know him as Jun 13, found something missing in my swing. He noticed that I do not finish my swing. He demonstrated to turn the right hip at the end of my swing and face the target. At first at the driving range this was hard for me to execute. However, the next time I went to the driving range, I started concentrating on cocking the club. Cocking the club actually automatically forced me to unwind so that it was easy to just turn around my hips and finish as he suggested. It worked. When I played at Tagaytay Midlands with Vic Fernandez, Bong Obligacion and Joey Solis - I immediately found that confidence and played well from tee to green. Of course, I still have the around-the-green problem so I did not really scored well.
If there is anything that I can call the secret to my swing, it should be the full cocking on every shot. It actually twist my shoulders automatically and at the same time makes an automatic full. When the downswing is automatically initiated, it is just a matter of twisting my right hips towards the target. I should remember that the right hips is really the game changer tip but I cannot execute it without the fully cocking left hand (and the ensuing shoulder twist).
The caddie also noticed my excessive waggle but I decided not to correct this as I am so attached to it already and it is not really a fault but maybe just a bad habit. He also showed me how to chip - making sure my weight is on my left foot and the ball position more on the right. I have to practice this still as I really have not found out the right way to do this.
