I love Daryl's references especially 1-L-15 .......basically you are thrusting until your right arm is straight. Thrusting down and out towards the Plane Line all the way to Both Arms Straight , Follow Through. Way past impact , or low point. Despite the fact the clubhead is moving Up and In. There is more down and out to be had than most people realize is possible, way more.
The down part is fng killing me

Doing a lot of work on mats can make a guy take out some Down out for self preservation , injury prevention reasons without him even knowing it.
On grass, picture yourself swinging a hammer, picture the ball as having a spike driven through it .....the ball is laying there in such a manner that the spike is pointed Down into the ground, sticking into the ground and pointed Out to right field. Drive that hammer right into that spike. Drive that spike staight Down and Out.
Add a horizontal hinge or an angled hinge action and a slightly closed club face at Fix and thats about it.

I like that imagery. However, if I come too far from the inside, well, I've hit some wicked hooks this summer between that closed club face, strong grip and inside to out club head path! Aiming point and extensor action have helped, esp. with longer clubs.
