I feel my downsing timing is the best part, backswing still needs some work, Im hitting the ball very well atm but I still feel there is room for improvement, I try to copy adam scotts swing, if you guys got any tips for me I would be much appreciated, thanks

Looks good man. If you're looking for suggestions, people are going to want to see swings where you are hitting a ball. Probably would also help to know your swing tendencies/misses (i.e. fat, hooks, slice, etc.) Glad to hear you're hitting it good though. Best of luck.

Your set up looks a little bit awkward and uncomfortable. As you can see, Adam Scott's looks more relaxed and balanced as opposed to rigid.

Besides that, the swing looks really nice.

Looks very good. The club isn't quite DTL at the top, but it's not something I'd change without seeing you hit a ball or a front view.

i think ure holding the club too close to the body and the shaft is almost comepletely vertical. other than that, it looks gud mate. try making a vid where re actually hittin balls. there's a hell lotta difference betweeen practice swings and actual shots. =P

Been working on it alot lately,hitting the ball great. would love some advice or analysis to maybe improve it even more

Only two things I really noticed was, your stance was pretty wide at address.. Does this make you off balance at all? I usually stand about shoulder width. And also the ball was played pretty far back in your stance, is it usually like that?

I use a slighly wider stance with my driver and 3-wood as it allows me to hit it hard and stay in balance

I could be wrong, but it looks like your right hand may be too far underneath the club which could make a proper release difficult. Again, due to the video angles I can't say this definitively but it's something to look into.

    • 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.

    • 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. 
    • 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.
