Curling skips assessment of delivery


Troubleshooting



Applies to right handed curlers. Lefties mirror images

Symptom                         Problem                          Correction
Unbalanced delivery       Sliding foot misaligned     Move sliding foot under chest
Drifting to the right         Not balanced                  Move sliding foot left
My rocks curl more         Soft release                    Apply turn faster
Short release                  Recalibrate closer to hog
Turning in at release      Establish grip and maintain
LOD outside/in
                Maintain LOD 
rocks curl less                Turned out at release      Establish grip and maintain
Hard release                   Apply turn slower
LOD inside/out               Maintain LOD
Not generating power    Weight not shifting           Shift weight back
Hips not elevated            Bring hips up and back
Improper body drop        Delay sliding foot
Too little leg drive           Push during body drop
Draw weight stinks         Delivery lacks tempo       Step back onto foot 1-2-3
Delivery too low             Raise House and torso
Can't hit the broom         Delivery too high             Lower House and torso
