Standing up during downswing

[bergsey]

Guys, was wondering if you could tell us the common causes of "standing up" during the downswing... and how you would go about fixing it.

i.e. losing your spine angle

Thanks!

Well....

Swinging too far to the right.

Trying to create room for a big old FLIP.

Trying to get out of the way of a CRASH on an "over the top" downswing.

Not opening the hips up enough to get the weight toward the left heel at impact.

Conversely what causes the head to drop significantly?
Thanks

USUALLY a too high head at address, look at pictures of Adam Scott versus Jack Nicklaus at their address head positions and their impact head conditions.
