Mark, that was the second time we had worked together. The half moon/belly roll is what he used as imagery for the changes we made to his swing. If you look at the John Deere video, you will see an upgrade of that, to where he got it more in there. Then the "Steve Elkington Range Session" vid is at Reno the week after that. Then after a week off in Houston, he went on to Turning stone and the PGA where he for the first time all Summer wasn't making any significant changes.
As we discussed yesterday, I'm a method teacher, but it's not about positions, it's a motion from set up to follow through (both arms straight for the first time) that's going to look different in everybody. You can learn that motion in 5 minutes, but there is MANY ways to enhance it from that first understanding. So this Champions video was just the beginning for Elk. He got better every week because he understood the basic motion which he demonstrates in this video, so was able to add 'more'...in his words "I'm going the other way".
