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.

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.

    • Take that logic and apply it to temporary water in the general area. The general area is not supposed to be under water. You are entitled free relief to play from another part of the general area that’s not under water. You are entitled to free relief to play from another area of the bunker. Bunkers are limited in size, and the fact that you were not able to play out of the same bunker no closer to the hole was unfortunate, but how does that possibly equate to “I should be able to play out of the grass instead with no penalty?” It doesn’t make logical sense. The ACC accommodates this by allowing the drop out of the bunker for one penalty stroke instead of the usual two, to account for the difference in lie.
    • Day 1:  I had my first “real” practice today at the driving range.  I hit two buckets of balls utilizing all of my clubs minus the pitching wedge (I haven’t had a lesson on that one yet).  
    • like I don't like to think I'm an amazing player as I play off around 7-8 handicap or anything but The one miss I have at the minute is with my strike and its getting really frustrating because I don't see what's causing it please don't say basic stuff like I don't weight shift etc because it wont help here are some videos form certain angles (these aren't that fat in the video maybe slightly chunked but its more the fact that the chunk happens 1 in every 4 iron shots so I'm never consistent) https://imgur.com/epaeE4D https://imgur.com/CKeV0Nm https://imgur.com/lJkliwd https://imgur.com/a/1Z7VwK9
    • You’ve yet to propose anything else. And yet it was, and the rules tell you how to deal with it. Your question has been answered. The Committee can declare them GUR. I disagree with your assessment of common sense. 😀 And yet they didn’t really change this one. Looks like this is about wrapped up? “That Rule is So Unfair!” A Rules Geek’s Generalized Guide to Hot Takes and Overreactions | Rules Geeks I apologize for the length of this post. If I had more time I’d have written a shorter one. – Erik J...  
    • When you are penalized for hitting into the sand trap the penalty is having to hit it out of the sand, not out of three inches of water. A sand trap is not the same as a water hazard. A sand trap is not supposed to be under water. It is a unique condition caused  by weather and poor drainage. Most local leagues like ours allow the free drop in this type of situation, as long as there is no area in the bunker to legally drop. This is what I’m talking about, sometimes the official rules of golf don’t align with common sense. That’s why they are finally starting to change them. For example, when wind blows your ball off the green. That was a stupid rule. People being able to call the tv network to say they saw a players ball move. That was a stupid rule. I’m just saying, these are rules made up a long time ago, and it’s time to modernize them.
