i was watchin my swing on film and i noticed a bad habbit. on my takeaway i shift a little to much to my left side, so when i start my downswing my body tends to lunge forwards and into the ball, which can mess things up. Any advice?

Get a head less shaft and stick it in the ground behind you angling towards and almost touching your front thigh. Make sure the shaft is not to close you can rotate around a firm front side. From here it is pretty simple, if you run into the club your still lunging.

Good luck

You are probably swinging the club around your body instead of up and down. As soon as you start swinging it up and down that lateral movement should disappear, and you should immediately feel the sense of torso and shoulder coiling.

If that doesn't help, try swinging with feet close together. At this position you HAVE to swing up and down in order to keep your balance with 3/4 swing.

Try hitting a couple of balls with your feet together, it'll force you to have perfect weight transfer. If your weight transfer is wrong in ANY aspect, you'll lose your balance. It worked for me!
