pro girls swing

[joeparr]

I notice when the girls swing in the pros their heads go down to the ball and follow thru under. Why is it so noticible with them. What do they do to accomplish this. Are they swinging different than men or does it look that way...joe

 

[Michael Jacobs]

Their heads are seeking the proper alignment, there are many men tour players that do the same...........

 

[Wolfman]

Head movement

So, is that because they don't set up with their necks/head parallel enough to the ground?

So, they have to seek that position actively in order not to top the ball?

You should watch Lorena Ochoa's head movement.

 

[jewofgolf]

In my opinion, a lot of this is caused by poor pivot, in hopes of hitting the ball longer distances. When you force yourself down low, you cram the hands and arms....causing you to LAG the club to hit the ball and get forward hands at impact. It does work for extra power....but look at Annika, her head is very steady, and she hits the ball consistently and accurately. Annika is not too short, either.
