Introducing my Swing

[BenHogan]

I got subscribed today to this ice looking forum. I introduce myself with my golf swing. I'd like to have tips, advises, comments, opinions....Thanks.

How tall are you and are your clubs standard length?

You are very very bent over at address.

You do need some clubs that fit you. Being bent over that much, and having only a down the line view makes analysis difficult, but here’s what I see.

Backswing and swing plane look okay, but it looks like you have made your downswing only with your arms and hands. At impact, your body has not turned much past its address position. In the downswing, your body movements must lead your arms and hands.

Here is a link to a free website that explains in great detail the total body golf swing that is used by most pros: http://perfectgolfswingreview.net/index.html

The main part of this site is a compilation from several well known instruction books. It is good except for the downswing keys given. The left shoulder is a much better swing key that works for the entire swing as advocated in “The Golf Swing and It’s Master Key Explained” by Noel Thomas. This book also has good explanations of extension and timing. It’s not free, but the e-book is only $6.00 with a money back guarantee. Just search Google for the title.

I hope this is helpful.

Yes, I use a bit the arms on the downswing, I'm ttrying to limit that. Anyway the shaft couldn't be parallel to the right forearm if I only use my arms. It would be as my old 8 months ago swing. Take a look.

You maintain posture pretty well. You are bent over a lot but depending on how you hit the ball, you don't necessarily need a drastic change. One thing I noticed on the last picture with the ball already on it's way is that you have very little hip turn. Your hips should be way more open at that point.

I have to agree with jambalaya. We should see two-cheeks by the time the head of the club reaches the ball for impact.
