Hi

Have been working on my swing for a while now and starting to like what I see.

Though there are a few things that I still want to get better on.

This is my own thoughts about my swing:

  • Need to get my backswing little more on plane.
  • Want to hold on and not release the club so quickly. Still think I have some tendency to scoop sometimes.
  • Stop standing om my toes in the down swing.
  • More weightshift forward in the downswing.

What should i put most work into? Or is there something else that I missed, that is worth putting ahead besides what i just wrote?

Posting a face on and down the line video for you to watch.

Seen on DTL:  Left arm comes off torso early in the backswing and clubhead and shaft get behind the hands early.  I really like your position at :06 and :07 on the DTL, but then you lift up a bit making the backswing too long resulting in a hint of over the top to initiate the forward swing.

Face On:

Big move off the ball, but you do a good job of getting your hips forward again into impact (but could go more forward)  Great extension with the legs and arms into impact.  Haven't seen too many others that are up on their left toes at impact--it's unusual looking and may suggest that you need more force and weight with the lower body heading in a forward vector at impact (instead of up).

Thanks for the reply

The things you mention are stuff that I have been working on the past couple of month.

A year ago I hade big problems with these things:

  • My right arm was way more of from my body and i lifted my club and came over the top like you wouldnt believe.
  • I shifted my weight to my right foot and made a big "sway" in the swing.
  • Had an overswing that made my clubhead point down at the ground.

I still working on this everytime om the range

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
