The Right Elbow… Again
Here's the swing sequence (from Analyzr) of a pretty good golfer. He took second place individually at the conference championships a few weeks ago.
Here's a larger look at A3 and A4 from DL:
Now, if the title of the post didn't totally give it away, a lot of golfers here would be able to spot the flaw here in a heartbeat: the right elbow migrates well around the body and gets a bit trapped on the downswing, resulting in a baby flip, not the best clubface or path control, and some more inconsistent shots than this player otherwise deserves.
I adjusted setup a bit, yes:
From there, we got to work using The Tube.
The Tube (patent pending, trademark pending ) is not a fix-all for this problem, but it will help this golfer TURN more as he can't make anything like a normal backswing (length) without turning more. Turning more reduces the need to pull the arms around himself, and also moves his shirt seam out of the way.
As a by product, without even talking or working specifically on the downswing…
