I just got a set of Mizuno JPX-800 Pro and took it out to the range for the first time today.

I have also been playing golf for 3 months now and need any advice I could get for my swing. I adopt the Reverse K Stance method. Anyone hear of this method before? It doesn't seem to be too popular. Any thoughts on this method?

Something I noticed about my swing is that right after contact, my right arm begins to bend. If the Internet is correct, I am supposed to keep my right arm straight after impact right? If so, are there any drills or tips on how I could improve on this? Because it feels to me as if my right arm is straight after impact when I swing. When I slow it down, it is clearly not. (Picture of arm after impact is below)

Is my right arm also too bent here?

Are there any other thought about my swing? I realize my head moves around a little bit at the top of my backswing. It is a problem I try to fix every time I hit the range.

I will appreciate ANY comments you have for my swing. I want my swing to improve more than anything in the world.

    • Day 222 (11 Dec 24) - weather came in about midday….son had an ortho appt mid morning….able to get in some work with the 54 and varied pitches. Used the tulip tree as the obstacle to clear….was able to work the face - normal face with the longer distances to more open with the tight short straight up and downs.  
    • Great to hear!  Im trying (slowly) to get back out there and this community has been very helpful - FORE
    • Lessons.   I asked Erik this once and he said a good player could shoot a good score with less-than-adequate clubs.
    • So I have a son-in-law that I really like, and he plays.  Not great, averages 100-110 on a normal course.  For his birthday I got him a series of 5 lessons (he's never had lessons before) from a well-regarded local pro.  He hasn't started them yet.  For Christmas I am getting him a fitting and clubs from a local clubmaker with credentials and equipment out the wazoo:   And following the fitting I will be having the clubmaker make him 13 clubs (he already has a putter he really likes and putting is one of the better parts of his game).  I'll let the clubmaker and him work out how many 'woods', how many and which hybrids, how many and which irons, and how many and which wedges.  Other than paying I don't want to inject myself into the process. So my question for the board is which should happen first, the fitting/building of the clubs or the lessons?  I can see arguments on both sides and I just thought this would be a good place from which to get some input.  Thoughts?
    • Day 2: 12/11/2024 Today I spent another half hour or so in front of the mirror working on my PPJ. I still feel like an orangutan performing brain surgery with a hack saw. It's a big departure from the way I had been timing my moves in the past.  Here's a quick video of my practicing.
