My Swing (Erlacker)

[erlacker]

Hi guys, I've been reading this forum for quite a while now, and I feel the advice I have gotten from all of you guys has helped my swing quite a bit.  I was finally able to get some footage of my swing and I hope you guys can help me out.  The first video is of my driver, and the second video is a seven iron.  Unfortunately because of the way the range is set up I could only get a down the line, but I hope it will do for now.  My main miss is a push, which on bad days turns into a push slice.  Any help is appreciated!!

This is my driver, which I hit about as well as I could ask for in this video

And this is my seven iron, which I hit a bit of a pull hook (unusual for me).

Not too bad but you are coming over the top. Shorten the swing a little, you're going past parallel, and then you want more of a hip slide forward instead of just pure rotation. You want the downswing to match the same plane as the backswing.

The pull/hook maybe grip.

My mishits are usually pulls/hooks and I think it's because my grip is in the "strong" position.

This may help

Looks like the club is going to far to the inside on your back swing, which could be why you're coming over the top. Overall, a good swing.

Ok guys, thanks for all the help, I should be able to get out to the range in the next few days and get another video up soon

I was actually able to make a quick range trip this evening, and mostly concentrated on getting my hands further away from my head at the top of my back swing to stop the OTT and shorten my backswing a bit.  It was a strange feeling but this range session was probably the most consistent Ive ever hit my driver

Sorry about the video quality, I wasn't planning on going to the range so I had neither a camera or tripod, so it is just a cell phone video
