I have a problem playing when it is sunny and i can see my shadow. It's only when my shadow is perpendicular to me and in front of me. When I line up and swing it seems like I'm way too shallow and about to hit a hook. It's really odd, because I usually play well when I can't see my shadow or it's a cloudy day. Any suggestions?

Have you tried dark sunglasses?

Use it to your advantage.

Watch your shadow during a swing to detect any body sway, head movement or changes in posture.

Is this the end of this thread? It should be.

Just shut your eyes, your swing will always look flatter in your shadow.

You beat me to it. I love having a shadow (and a strong reflection from the clubhead as it comes through as well), because of the extra info that it provides about my swing plane/tempo/etc.

Hmmmm, maybe that's why my game was such a piece of junk when I played in England decades ago. That's a new one ....
