My Swing (jesup)

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Hey forum!

 

I thought I'd post a few of my swings up here to see what you all thought.
I've been playing golf since I was 3 years old, competed from ages 10-17, and currently I'm now starting back after taking a 5 year break.  I went to college and didn't have the time (or $$$ !!!)  to get to play much.  I'll tell you what though... I'm having a lot more fun now than I ever did!

I took 4 years of lessons from Sea Island down in St. Simons Island, GA under Mike Cook.  They called me Sergio down there because of my crazy hand action.  The lag has since decreased quite a bit, but it's definitely still there.  


What gets me in trouble the most is my left elbow near impact.  We were able to fix it by slowing my swing down and doing a LOT of towel drills (making swings with towels under your arms).

When I got back into golf 3 weeks ago, I got my timing back quickly. However, my left elbow is back to giving me fits.

 

Any suggestions to fix this as well as any other mechanical issues you see would be greatly appreciated!

Take everything i say with a grain of salt.  It seems like you aren't letting your club get behind your body and your hip turns.  I think that you want it to be behind your turn so that it can accelerate through and catch up with the rest of your swing.

 

On your iron shot, possibly open your foot angle more towards the target. the back foot being parallel is correct.
