This article contains what I work on. The principles are what every PGA pro should be teaching.
I believe it should further emphasize that the best way to ingrain new motions and positions is in stopped poses and slow motion rehearsals, just as we learn to dance or play a musical instrument.
The WORST way to learn anything new is in full speed repetition. For most of us, that simply doesn't work, it just further ingrains our mistakes.

Here is my swing today. Notice the better separation, the better squat, the spine angle and later release. This old dude will be driving it long and far down the middle and then nailing the green from there. You could do it too, all it takes is hard work and persistence.

Hmmm...
You talk about DOING something with your hands...
"and make a better release by supinating my right wrist"
...something you've spent years telling us was absolutely, 100% wrong.
You've also abandoned the whole "take it up vertically then lay it off,
because that's the way all the good young pros swing", too.
Strange.
And according to what golf teaching should you "throw your left knee
across early" at all?
And most importantly:
You've told us all for a decade or more that "I'm hitting all the
fairways and most of the greens"...
...so how is it that this latest thing is going to finally let you reach
that goal ("will be")?
I'll let others decide for themselves based on the facts whether you're
really here to talk about what works, or simply to puff yourself up by
claiming you're achieving things that we plebes aren't.

Alan, NOBODY HERE gives a crap about you or me or anyone else. This is a nearly anonymous golf discussion group. We discuss the OBJECTIVE principles regarding the golf swing and other subjects. It is NOT and never was about any of us, especially you.
> Be a man: admit you've told lies about me.
So your continued stalking and personal harassment is especially out of place here and everywhere you post. Don't you notice that essentially nobody in any forum in any thread EVER replies to your posts? HINT! You have made yourself a pariah. And now you can enjoy that status. You did it to yourself.
