Hallo, fellow golfers!

I had my swing filmed yesterday and have decided to put it up here. I guess it makes more sense for you to - hopefully - comment on something filmed compared to something verbally explained.

So, if anyone can point out any faults together with drills to overcome these faults, it'd be highly appreciated.

Thanks for your help

anyone?

You could submit these to Swing Check. You also realize this is Masters week, right?

you have a nice classic swing, I only swee a couple of problems,

I think you rush your backswing just a little, (out of tempo), get tour tempo, helps you so much.
I think your unhinging or releasing a little early, I can tell because the ball launch seems high for your irons.
I think your setup is superb and your headmovement and lateral movement is pretty good. I just think you should either strengthen you forarms and deltoids and core, or just get a coach, or try to opt for a draw shot, You would probably get more distance. Looks kind of like ernie els swing but with a amateur touch. lol. Thanks for letting me see your swing, I'm impressed.

Hey bud, just thought I'd add some input.

Oh, first off, the file size of your movie is unnecessarily large. Rapid Share made me wait an hour to download the second vid

Anyway. . .

I think you can develop a great swing but should definatly focus on a few areas which are limiting you at the moment.

Notice the following:

-you're tense at address
-your stance may be a little narrow
-it looks as though you're standing a little upright (tense)
- you straighten out your right knee on the backswing
-your wrists do not hinge properly at the top (tense?)

It looks like your backswing has some mistakes which are atleast partly responsible for your lunging at the ball on attack (notice your head dropping like that?).
