Yes, I know! I told you short game was coming and that is next week, I promise! It is already in the queue.
Meanwhile, we had a large demand for how to crush those woods and drivers with your lead hand being dominant, and I was only too happy to oblige. Enjoy!

Earlier this week, Mitsubishi announced the return of its iconic Whiteboard profile with the new Diamana WB shaft.
In our launch story, we offered a rundown of the key technology in the new WB — 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber, Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber, Consistent Feel Design, and the Xlink Tech Resin System. To go deeper, however, we enlisted our Resident Club Junkie and bona fide shaft nut, Brian Knudson, to track down someone from Mitsubishi at the PGA Show. Fortunately, Mitsubishi’s Director of Global Aftermarket Sales, Jonathan Alongi, was on hand to answer all of BK’s questions.
Check out their discussion about the new WB, as well as the 20th anniversary of the original design, in the video above — time stamps of key points below, including a definitive answer as to how the surfboard graphic ended up on the original Whiteboard in 2004!
- :40 – Mitsubishi Japan expands to the U.S. in 2004
- :50 – “The shaft that set the standard”
- 1:12 – “The ‘board is back”
- 1:45 – WB or Whiteboard? Or both?
- 1:55 – The first iteration of the sixth generation of Diamana
- 2:10 – Incorporating key technology from a 20-year journey
- 3:10 – Modifying the tip section for more ball speed
- 3:50 – Delivering ball speed in a low-launch, low-spin shaft
- 4:20 – Drilling down on the shaft profile compared to the original Whiteboard
- 5:00 – The most impressive element of the new WB
- 5:30 – Butt, mid, tip specifications
- 6:00 – WB’s iconic graphics and the Diamana legacy — flowers, surfboard, numbering system
- 8:15 – An abundance of available weights and flexes
- 8:55 – More players going lightweight

This didn’t say anything about playing with dominant lead hand at all. This was a basic draw fade video
etc.

The external focus on clubhead path and orientation of cluface at impact (different for fade or draw)
is cause of lead hand ahead of the clubhead. Its a result of the proper external focus.
It has nothing to do with dominant lead hand. Hand dominance is determined by genetics.
(BTW the only way for lead hand to stay ahead of the clubhead, ie pull the clubhead into impact is for golfer to get ahead of the ball, not stay behind it) How do you pull something by staying behind it?)

Your “mind over matter” solution is total rubbish. Also your “pull” the clubhead is scientifically wrong…. and is rooted in 1960’s beliefs of the golf swing. You are so obsolete!!!
