- It looks like you roll your forearms a bit at start.
- A little less wrist hinge at the top would probably be beneficial (front view would help).
- It looks like you lose the wrist hinge a bit early on the downswing (again, front view would help).

I usually find these three things all go together... all about being a little too active with the arms and hands on the backswing. But the rest of the swing looks real good (nice tempo, balance, and positions).

This is a great observation. I reviewed this after reading your response and it is clear as day! Thanks.

I will work on my hands being more silent on the takeaway.

Yeah.. like James said, you really need to hit a ball, outdoors.No offense, but I guarentee you your swing looks nowhere near that smooth and controlled on the 1st tee.And that's when the swing flaws creep in, which is the whole point of posting a video for people to help you with..

do you hit a block or fade? I cant make this video go slow enough, but seems like you dont roll the wrist over to me. May be the blur as I try to stop the video.

If you looked at me taking a practice swing in the living room, you'd think I was a tour pro. Not the case. Everyone has a beautiful practice swing. Not many have a beautiful actual swing. This swing tells us absolutely nothing about your real swing.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus.

      2026 TST Birdie Challenge

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
