Alright guys I was hoping to get some comparison between this swing in March and what im doing now to see if I've gotten better or worse (swing wise). Im hoping to have present day video uploaded 2morrow!

March Video: DTL


Thats some what face on

Thanks

Hey, thats a pretty good swing you have there. Back in march were you hitting hooks? Looks like your shaft is a little far inside on your downswing but not very far off. Spine angle looks good, impact position looks good. You look to have open shoulders and that could counter balance the slight hook you would normally have with that swing path. Nice speed and tempo, what is your clubhead speed?

not too shabby at all.

Is your house fenced in??

Looks pretty good, Cant comment on anything else.

I think I would miss that net!!!

Back then I was playing a slight draw. My house isnt techincally fenced but I got a canal behind so the alligators need a fence to stay out nosy neighbors hence the Wood part but the other side has a fence because my mom is scared of the pitbull!

I was clocking like 150 ball speeds in March the latest clock I've gotten was about 154 on avg. Maxed a 170.

Not a bad swing at all, a couple of things i saw though.

1. At address your hands are slightly high and arched which then on your takeaway creates a bit of disconnection by a very quick rotation with the hands and club which will put the club on a shallow plane but a little too much behind yourself.

2. As a result of your takeaway your hands are a little deep (swung too far behind you) and because of this on the downswing there is a slight steepening of the shaft angle resulting in an a crowded impact position which is slightly from an outside path which you can see through impact the lack of width and folding of both arms very quick, this will result in high ball speed due to very active hands and wrists creating a lot of speed but not much accuracy.


Recommendations:

Address: relax hands slightly so as not to be too arched there will be less tension.

Takeaway: try to get a bit more extension (push the club away more) as it doesnt matter if you only make a short backswing as you are making the width available to help you to time your hit better.

backswing: by making the changes above this will result in a shorter, wider backswing creating width for the club to drop down into the space created previously.

through to finish: with more space on the way down the club will travel on the correct arc and path and will automatically create more width on the follow through resulting in a less hands dominated release and more big muscle release.

Hope this helps

Thats the video sorry its not the best quality my brother needed the camera for a project so I couldnt take it out of the house. I think im casting and that ball ended as a strong fade that landed about 15-20 yards off my target line. Any help?

Easy one. Shoulders slightly open at address and left shoulder kicks in too early on down swing making you cut across the ball.

Much more movement on this swing than the others which I think look better.
