I've traditionally had a poor hand path that goes towards the ball in my initial downswing move coupled with a steep shaft which points at the ball or just inside. In order to compensate, my hands move towards my body just before impact giving me a CP style release (and swinging left). To me...

Once you figured out the line, what do you do? I usually pick a point maybe a foot or so from the ball along that line (it helps if there are irregularities on the green) and aim my sweet spot square towards that point. I use a two ball putter so it helps in my alignment. I'm certain there...

Was wondering if anyone has insights on this. I have most of Brian's videos and theres one where he shows how to make a proper grip. He holds the club out with his left hand so that the left arm fw is parallel to the ground. The neutral left hand grip is to place the grip of the club in the...

I took some slow motion videos of my swing earlier today. Here's a face on view: I have a tendency to chicken wing my left arm after impact: Here's a DTL view (mishit it): Constructive pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, I just got myself a casio ex f1. Gonna try capture some videos of my swing out on the range. What are some of the most important (ie fundamental) and subtle things to look for to the untrained eye? Thanks,

Hey guys, Wanted to solicit a few thoughts about my range session. I just got a Tour Striker Pro 7I and headed out to the driving range. After starting out with some worm burners, I realized I was hitting too low on the club face and decided to make an aggressive slide (at least it felt like...

Is it too steep if the shaft comes on a plane steeper than the turn shoulder plane (I realize ppl don't use this term here anymore)? I've always had a somewhat steep swing where the shaft would come down the turn shoulder plane. Recently, I made a conscious effort to shorten my backswing...

Is it okay for your weight to go past the inside of your left weight during a proper weight shift forward? Or should the weight primarily stay on the inner half of your left foot?

I was wondering if anyone else struggles with this and what might help. In my downswing, I have trouble rotating my right shoulder down the plane (and concurrently rotating my left shoulder up and out). I think it might be a core strength or flexibility issue. Basically, I want to be able...

I tried searching the forum but couldn't find definitive answers to my specific questions so here goes: 1) I know we should have a flat left wrist at impact which means that our right wrist must be bent at impact. But does the right wrist start to straighten out at all on the downswing? If I...

Was wondering if someone has any thoughts on this: I'm badly pulling my short irons. My 9 iron will usually miss by 20+ yards. For the most part, the shots start left and draw more left. As an experiment, I weakened my grip and I started hitting soft draws which start right of the target...

I did a quick search but didn't find what I was hoping for. To make a long story short, I've been fighting an across the line position at the top of my backswing for a long time. I do hit it pretty straight with pulls (pull hooks) being my main misses. I saw a recent video of my swing at a...

Even if your divot is ahead of the ball? My divots (nice and shallow) start well ahead of where my ball is placed but I can't get good distance from longer irons. I'm focusing on my left hand being flat at impact but I feel like the wrist does break down after impact. My distance with driver...

hi all I was wondering if I can get some feedback on how "dropping the club into the slot" should feel. My tendency is to get "stuck" aka swinging too far to the right. My misses are big high pushes or low hooks. When I had an instructor while back, the videos showed that I consistently came...

For the past week or so I've logged in 4-5 rounds trying to experiment between swinging and hitting procedures with my driver. As best as I can tell Distance-wise: About the same with the driver. I'd say when I'm swinging, I can get the same distance as when I'm hitting with less effort...

I'm trying to fix my old OTT move by utilizing my lower body to initiate the downswing. I have a tendency to slide the hips rather than squat. Should I focus on maintaining resistance in my legs?

I've heard this term or a variation of this term several times in relation to pp#3. What exactly does this mean- is it merely knowing where the clubhead is at all times or the clubhead as well the relationship of the clubhead face to the swing plane?

I know there are some precise defn's but is it safe to say that a swinger is a left arm dominant player while a hitter is right side dominant. For instance, I believe I'm using a swinging stroke because I use my left arm to "pull" the club into the hitting area and use my right arm to guide the...

I got on the course this morning very reluctant. My buddies needed a fourth badly so they coaxed me to go out even though I've been shanking my irons badly as I've been trying to fix my timed flip manuever. I wasn't expecting much but I did notice some things in my video session at the range...
