Very inconsistent of late...your thoughts?

OK, you asked...based on one swing and angle...

Going back, the club is a little shut and the shaft appears slightly inside.  Going through I would encourage you to finish your swing and not cut it off unless you are striving for the "unfinished symphony" look.  Try to feel the swing of the club through to finish.

I hope this helps...

Inconsistent how? Distance? Is that you in the video?

Physician, heal thyself? ;-) I love your swing. Only (utterly uninformed) thought is that things look quite critical around impact with that fast horizontal hinge. Maybe focusing on holding the wedge longer to get a little more angled would help with consistency of strike?

Yup, that's me. I think I know what is wrong but like to hear other thoughts

Shot cone is at target then hooking ...(I know the ball flight laws so face is at target at impact and closed to the path)...some shots are dangerously close to the hosel

In the dtl view, I can see that your trailing arm is away from your body at impact.  You could have an arm swing that is getting a little ahead of your body movements.

It's not really shut. "Toe up" is open at that position in the backswing. It is inside though.

Here's a quick image Peter... cock the club up faster, tilt left a bit more to keep your head in place and steepen the shoulders, but above all else get the hips pushing forward. There's almost no forward component here.

OK....tilt slightly more to start the backswing....keep clubhead out in front longer as hands go in.....more retention of the flying wedge...and slide the hips toward the target

I'm gonna keep workin'.....thanks guys

Erik, at P2 Peter's elbows are separating, space between his left arm and torso, clubhead inside.  Would trying to look more like this pic of Charlie, hands more in, left arm more across his chest help with getting the clubhead online at P2?

If looking like the picture is absolutely important, sure. But he gets pretty well in line and on plane at P4 so I'm keeping it as simple as possible for now with the tilt/cock stuff. By far you can see he will want to go forward more, so that's the bigger thing to focus on first.

But yeah, his hands can keep going in more. I think cocking the club up faster will help with that. It's part of my fulcrum theory. ;-)

So, am I fired?  I do like the cocking the club up faster part...

Nope....I appreciate all the input...in fact, if the tips work, I'll give all my "tipsters" 10% of the money won from my buddies

    • It’s not live on free to air tv in the UK, and hasn’t been since 1995. ( I pay a subscription to Sky for generally good golf coverage). There are limited highlights on the BBC for some golf events, but that’s it. Are other/all PGA events on NBC?  Allowing ticket scalping is a systemic failure across sports and showbiz, which could be legislated against, but in the UK is not in any meaningful way. I don’t know much about the secondary market in the US or anti scalping measures.  Charging more to keep prices down is an interesting concept, in practice no doubt you are right even if It sounds a bit Catch 22  Do you think sports tickets and broadcast rights  should be sold on a purely capitalist basis, or is there an argument to say that some sports might benefit more from wider exposure and affordable access. ( golf in the US is apparently not one of these if tickets sold out at those prices so quickly)  Fans might benefit from cheaper tickets and in the UK at least, TV coverage that reaches a wider audience.
