My Swing (qqqsimmons)

[qqqsimmons]

I've been Playing Golf for: 10 years intermittently, been playing a lot the last few months
My current handicap index or average score is: ~14
My typical ball flight is: driver tends to face/slice, everything else tends to draw/hook; misses in both directions
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: ducky hooks i guess.

Sorry for the quality on second vid.  Thanks...

Welcome to TST.

I think you'd do well to use your body more. There's a lot of "arms" going on here, and not as much body motion as we generally like to see.

Thanks for responding.  Hmm, where to start?  I tend to hit my irons very high, at least when I hit them solidly (for me anyway).  I've been working on some drills to compress them better and notice that I need to open my hips up more to make this work. 

So far, I'm just practicing hit low-punch half-swings since I don't have much skill for that. 

Any other suggestions?

Check out the first five drills in this thread. They do a great job setting you up for proper sequencing and body turn in the fill swing.

Thanks, I will check those out.
