My Swing (SlappyBuffet)

[SlappyBuffet]

I've been Playing Golf for: 9 months
My current handicap index or average score is: 27
My typical ball flight is: low and thin
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: I've been going to lessons by my coach has gone on holiday and I can't hit the ball anymore! I've change my alignment as I was open shoulders and feet & I'm trying to eliminate the over the top swing. I can see the over the top swing is still present here so any drill ideas would be nice, my hands also seem too high & far away from my body at impact. Thoughts?

Other than that pretty healthy 29 year old guy.

Not much lower body involvement, and an over-the-top steepening move in transition.

Very common.

You can put a stick on the target line oriented at about 55° or so (from the ground) and swing over it, trying to do so with a better lower body action.

Something like this? What is a better lower body action?

Nothing shows up. You can embed a JPEG or a GIF or something, but please stick to normal web formats.

Basically, like this, but with the stick on the target line and on the FRONT side of the golfer, not the back side:

And swing OVER it.

Got rid of the steeping movement & the shanks. Feels to be coming out a lot cleaner but might be dropping the club to far behind now.

Just trying to solidify some changes, stopping that over the top & using my lowerbody more. Let me know any comments, hoping to get my swing in a good place as playing Pezula in a couple of weeks!

Are you sure about that? It hasn't been very long, and the next video doesn't show quite the same things.

Wasn't sure if I was too shallow or coming from too far behind on the 2nd video so tried to just use the feeling of been shallow to keep it on plane. Is the 2nd video swing better than the 3rd?

I’m saying I’m not so sure you’ve “fixed” things. It’s been a few days.
