Today I asked my friend to video tape my swing. I have always had a bad habit of bringing my club inside on my upswing and then hooking it up and around on my downswing. I don't have any past videos of it although hopefully that explains it enough. I've been playing since i was like 10 years old so I guess it's just something I have obviously been able to get my own adaptation to and play decent enough with.

I tried to make my swing plane more even and here are two videos of this. I'm tryin'. Sorry I couldn't get a front view, but this is a start... Personally I like the second swing more, it looks better to me and has a more consistent plane. Also, I feel like I don't keep my arms even with my body on these swings. I don't know, first time I've ever seen my swing(s)

This first video I feel as if I bring the club back in a more straight manner, at I think so.

This second video I come in more but I feel as if I am more on a plane. Both of these swings are very new to me so any criticism of whichever one you feel is better will be appreciated. Thanks!

Wow, great picture thanks. It looks like I should be trying to keep my right arm straighter also on the initial take back? I guess that will come with me not turning my forearm as much at first.

I wouldn't worry about that for now, you're actually going to feel counter rotation of the left forearm.  Also Hunter keeps his straighter than most.

I'm trying to just keep it on plane right now, I have no feel of where the club is at the top of my swing right now so I'll try and start thinking about it. Watching these videos now have really started helping me out feel what's going on up there. thanks for the tip

I haven't gotten the chance to get to the range with finals coming up. but when I get back home I'm going to take better quality videos of down the line and side, I'll slow one down as well.

    • Day 107 - More pitching practice, playing around with trajectory. 
    • Yea Club Rat said it. I really enjoyed the Senator and the Judge, then over to Grand National where there a couple good courses plus a fun par 3. The one I do play whenever I visit there is Ross Bridge; something about this course that is just good fun. I hope to play more of the courses in the future, but tomorrow is promised to no one, so hope is the key word. Have Fun, iSank

    • Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things?

    • Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.
