Use of Photographs for learning
Am I the only one who uses photographs of prominent pros to learn from? I think you can get some great stuff from still shots.

Example:

http://sports.yahoo.com/golf/pga/pho...ijc119&prov=ap

The caption says this is from the 16th fairway. I'd love to know if this is a full iron shot or a pitch. See how his hands are ahead of the clubhead through impact?

My achilles heel is flipping my hands. This picture shows a great impact position.

Do you have a sky-high ball flight, too?

yes, I do. More noticeable on irons than woods, but I'm pretty sure I tend to release the club head too early rather than keeping that "lag".
