My Swing (FowlerFan19)

[Fowlerfan19]

This video isn't in the best quality and it's taken from a cell phone at a driving range so it's probably not a great video, but I wanted to post it anyway. I just started golfing last year and I love the game. I'm struggling a bit with my driver and my long irons right now and wanted to see if anybody had any tips for me. I'm also going to play a course tomorrow so I'll take a video with a better camera so I can upload more..

Can somebody also give me video advice? AKA what camera angles to use, etc. Thanks.

How to video your swing

The bit on angles etc is towards the bottom.

it looks like you are taking it back way to the inside which can induce an over the top move back to the ball. I'd suggest hitting some balls with some clubs layed on the ground, parallel to your target.

Hey man, thanks for the advice...could this happen because I was using too much arms and not enough shoulder rotation? I started using my shoulders a lot more today and saw some progress, still not perfect though. What would an over the top swing cause btw?

I never knew I looked this bad swinging a golf club...kind of depressing. Can somebody here list the numerous things I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

two quick ones..flipping and your weight never gets to your front side.

Hey man thanks for the quick reply! Any idea on some drills or how I can fix these problems? I noticed how bad my shoulder/hip turn was so I've been working on that.
