I’ve been struggling for a while with thin shots.

Im pretty accurate but not any solid hits. 

Very high and thin hits.

My own analyze is early extension, too fast hips maybe, to short backswing, a little scooping.

Can someone help me? 🙂

 

Sorry for my bad English! Greetings from 🇸🇪

Thin is tough to see unless you swing differently off mats. You get the head forward of your hips during the backswing, but don't super back out of it, or bend the left arm much. Do you get many thin ones off mats? None of those show me what I would expect to see from someone saying that.

I can get some thin hits from mats. 
I’ve notice my head as well.

I going to test to a little more spine tilt at address. My shoulders are pretty level. And I’m going try to have my ball position further forward.

Do you think that could work?
