damn just wanna say that camera-man is brilliant!!

Considering it's sideways, we thought he just placed the camera into a frozen hobo's hands - just before the rigor mortis set in.

Slightly better quality that my other swing videos

I've tried to set my weight more forward.
This wasn't a great swing, I got a fade instead of a draw, but I still struck it well.

Yeah, great video quality. Can we get a decent angle with a decent camera here? lol.

I'm no expert, but if you slow the swing down you can tell you are still coming off the ball on the back swing.

You're doing a real good job with the right knee but it looks to me like your left knee is over flexing which is something I do worse than you.

If you're trying to S&t;, the book says to tilt more to the left with your back on the backswing, so that your left knee doesn;t over flex. You're left knee is flexing so much it's causing your head to drop, which I think is making you flip and open your elbows so that your club doesn't crash into the ground behind the ball. That's why you kind of have a scoop look at impact....

I have all the same problems and I see them hours on end with my own swing, but mine are much more severe than yours, so take it for what it's worth....

I think I'll give stack & tilt a go, I mightn't choose all the pieces but keeping the weight centered and then driving left at impact is something that's helping consistency for me.

I'll try tilting to the left and see how it works out. thanks for replying.

you should see my other swing video's lol.

Use swingacademy for the angle, can't help with the quality. I might get a camera in a few months.

Nice swing.

Do you hit consistently? If not, I may have a solution for you.

I'm no expert but your shoulder finished turning at frame 63. Then your arms move for 2 more frames to top of swing. In frame 64 and 65, your torso moves towards the target. In addition, it's hard to tell but your arms don't seem to in front of you throughout the swing. One more thing. Due to swaying toward the target before downswing, your head moves to the target instead of staying behind. You should move the weight forward but the head should stay behind.

If I were you, I would shorten the backswing. Then you should be able to pivot better instead of swaying to the target. Your head will stay behind but your weight will move forward.

I had exactly the same fault as yours. It took 1 month to fix it. But occasionally, if I don't tell myself to "shorten backswing", then this fault creeps back in.

    • First going to spain for a long weekend in March probably going to play La Quinta, Los Arqueros and Fina Cortesin, and first week in May will compete in the Crawsnest Tassie at Carnoustie golf links, that will be a full week of golf golf golf and more golf. Did play it last year for the first time and it is awesome.
    • Scrubs is coming back to ABC. February 25.
    • Day 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well. 
    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
