My Swing (paulg)

[paulg]

I've been Playing Golf for: Can't play anymore due to ill health this is my swing from a few years ago.

My current handicap index or average score is: No idea, this swing was 2 years after I stopped playing so not at my best. My lowest handicap was 9.

My typical ball flight is: Slight fade/straight.

The finish was due to me being conscious of the camera it's not usually that exaggerated! I know I don't play anymore but still love the game and would like to get some opinions on what my swing was like. I always had a tendency to pick up my arms to steeply on the backswing when I wasn't playing well.

To stop the arms from lifting, the right hip needs to be deeper in the backswing, meaning more rotation.  This combined with feeling the hips and shoulders staying closed longer on the downswing should help you see some improvement.

You can't play anymore due to illness, but you want swing advice?  This doesn't make a ton of sense.

"would like to get some opinions on what my swing was like" I never took any lessons or really had anyone take a look at my swing. I don't know if it was good/bad or where I was going wrong. It would just be nice to know.
