I made a homemade movie of my swing using the movie mode on my digital camera. I tried to get it from a few angles. I do not know if the way I did this is the proper way to film a swing or if a proper critique can be made. A few things I would like to mention. I feel like my left hand at the top of the swing is not in the right position. I can't tell if it is cupped at the wrist or if the face is open or closed at the top. Is the clubhead pointed in the right direction at the top? I also never take consistant divots as I would like to. Can anyone tell me why from viewing this video? Thanks

I think its near impossible to critique your swing from seeing that video. Im assuming you dont hold your swing for three seconds on the course like that. Go to the driving range with a friend and also get a shot of your whole body in the swing not just your upper body, the lower body tells a lot, (Weight shift, possible reverse pivot, ball position)

theres some stuff to talk about here still tho.

Even tho you're exaggeration your top of backswing position and using a weighted club, your move thro the ball is pretty solid.

You get into the slot nicely and you have a good balanced follow through. its a good move. But cant really look at it fully until I see it regular speed and with the added factor of actually trying to acheive ball contact

I think the things you should concentrate on are your positions at address.

You could maybe work on your shoulder and head postions and try staightening out your spine angle. Shoulders are very bunched up and you could maybe benefit for trying to attain a more relaxed, neutral position.

Try posting some actualy swings if possible and post what your ball flight is etc etc

Personnaly Im a bigger believer in shaft plane vs swing plane. So it'd be interesting to see your full body and shaft positions as you hit some shots

Good luck with your golf!

    • @jxdama: Same dumb schtick since joining. Yup. Also, it's a par-73.
    • Day 97 - 2025-01-05 Showed up to something that absolutely floored me, and then was busy right through to 9:00. So, I got 5:00 in at night, at home, before bed. My rib cage hurts from a cough (ha ha, but also, f***), and I think I have a mild ear infection in my right ear. Things are just f***ing great.
    • OMG Jerry Barber shot -20 back in 1960! Let's go back and time and bitch about how easy it is to play golf. My goodness, Calvin Pete shot a -21 in 1986! Wait a second, David Duval shot -26 back in 1999! Hold up, Ernie Els shot a -31 back in 2003!!!!  (all scores at The Sentry, it is a very easy golf course for PGA Tour players).  The concept that golf in the past is this protecting par or what not is just romanticized BS. Golfer's have been tearing apart golf courses for decades. Let's have a sense of perspective to base our opinions, ok?     
    • I wont  comment further except to say maybe we  can get a  -40 winner soon on these tests  of golf  skill     Hideki Matsuyama runs away with The Sentry, breaks scoring record to open new PGA Tour season Hideki Matsuyama picked up his 11th PGA career win on Sunday afternoon in Hawaii.  
    • Day 4 - Had aspirations for range work but a family activity went a lot longer than expected. So 6 minutes of mirror work, feeling good about weight shift back and transition forward.
