My Swing (wedge player)

[HighSchool Golf Freak]

I like how the feet are staying flat until he hits the ball.

exactly, until he gets the club through and then they just kinda flips up

I didnt' even notice the out of bounds stakes coming up from the shoes. :)

nah i play allota differant ones kinda partial to top flite gamers though

You have a bit of an over the top move. If you fix this you will get a few more yards(5-10 yds w/ driver) but more importantly you will be more acurate. But this is coming from the golf perfectionist

[birdiemachine]

you almost start your swing with your weight on your heels too, maybe try a more balanced athletic address of the ball

If the feet are flat through impact, that's all that really matters. You have great foot action which translates to great leg action. The back foot coming up tells US that the weight is going forward. Another good sign. If you can resist the right arm straightening out before impact, you'll be gold.

and how would i practice that?

Draw a straight line in the ground and get into your normal stance. If that was your backyard in the video, draw a line in the dirt.

Swing it up, and on your way down - in slow motion to start - make sure your body movements support the slightly bent right arm past the golf ball.

At first, try taking a divot as far down the line as possible. In order to take that divot, your hands will have to be ahead of the clubhead with a leaning clubshaft - great. Increase the speed of your swings, try to get that divot a little further forward. See how you have to straighten the right arm just to reach out to take the divot? the ball was back 6 inches ago, so it would have been bent thru impact.

One thing we'll see in your next vid is more turn which can keep the angles bent - right wrist and right arm.

Take this for what it is. If its too technical, focus on just the divot. That's almost brainless - but it is athletic. If you understand the ideas behind leverage and maintaining bent angles through a pivot supported (driven) body motion, you'll hit it a mile.

One more thing 2 cheeks at impact, I paused one of the swings all I could see was 1 cheek and your arms helping the ball up mainly from your spine angle coming out on the downswing. I would like to see more rotation of your lower body and finish with your spine angle intact for a few moments to show your balance, thats a big part in this game is balance. What I mean about 2 cheeks is basically clearing your hips by doing so at impact you will see 2 cheeks istead of 1 and I can bet thats why you hit high fades with your driver.

ok this one should work

[wedge player]

my swing has ran away with the spoon its been going for about a week and a half and now it vanished anyone else have this problem

[beachbreak]

You're a 5 guy! Obviously an accomplished player. Everybody's swing comes and goes. I have no doubt you will come back better than ever. You will be hitting balls and the light bulb will go off.............oh that is what the problem was. Then you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you know your swing better than anyone else and have the ability to fix it, hitting it great once again.

[jambalaya]

Can't help you. My swing has been in hiding for quite some time.

[DavidFehertysBike]

Yes. Matter of fact its happening to me right now. My average ho- hum round is probably about 6 or 7over, but ive been struggling to even to stay in the low 80's for the last month. I cant really say whats going on. On top of that, I havent been able to save holes with my putter like i often do. It feels like my timing is off or something.

[David in FL]

I just checked, it's not down here. I'll keep my eyes open though.......

FWIW, it'll prob come back when it gets hungry.

[Leftygolfer]

My swing/game seems to disappear every year about august. I start to drive it bad and have no idea why. Then it just kills me.

[$2 Nassau]

Yes, the start of this year has been a tough one, and I'm no 5 handicap. I'm an 11 playing like a 20 right now.

[ApocG10]

I still have my swing, but it was never very good to begin with, lol

Hoping to remedy that this year with regular lessons and a golf school.
