Thank you! From the frontview I think it looks okay but from the backview I can't see any similarity with your swing. My legs often lowers and get into a squatty position like this.

Sweet.

That's not a great swing of mine but it's more to do with the upper body.

Your knees and legs will generally re-gain their address posture from DL view at about A5.5 or so. So yeah, I can see what you're talking about. I thought perhaps you meant on the backswing or at A4.

Still this piece is pretty easy to clean up. I won't say much now since I'm not doing a full look and I don't want to give you a priority 2 or 3 piece because I'm only looking at your legwork when there may be a priority 1 piece somewhere else.

I hope evolvr will help me clear it up eventually, thanks for the feedback.

Legwork is certainly improving, those evolr instructors are fantastic.

nevrino, spring for a faster SD card. :) They don't have to be too big, just class 6, though even the class 10 cards are pretty inexpensive.

yep guess I will have to do that. Maybe it could be the settings in the camera that aren't optimal, my first swings never lagged this much. The camera is casio exilim ex-zr100 and the sd card is almost brand new so it's kinda weird, gonna look into this however.

Maybe it's not the card. I know I've seen that skipping when the card(s) are too slow to keep up. Maybe you can format the card (I format the cards all the time) to restore its performance.

Had quite an amazing round today with 4 birdies and 6 pars, some bad holes led to 81 strokes though, but im chasing that 80 barrier now =D.

Had quite a revelation today about my right wrist not opening enough at the backswing(thanks JetFan1983). I hope evolvr guys don't get mad at me for trying things on my own . Also bought a new sd card, the fastest I could find and it made quite a difference.

Here's swings from today:

Swing looks pretty good as far as I can tell. Short game will save you so many strokes. Work on your putting, you dont need evolvr for that :)

No, but we're happy to look at any sort of shot in evolvr. It's not just for full swings. Record your putting stroke, bunker shots, pitches, chips, etc.

Oh I know that I was just saying that once you have the correct technique (which evolvr could definitely help with), you just need to put in the time.

My greengame isn't that bad, I will prob use some lessons this winter just to correct the flaws I have, but it's not prioritized now. My long game isn't good enough yet.

Decided i'm going to work my way from P2-P4, it's only 3 positions with no power involved so shouldn't be so hard to nail, and obviously my backswing is a bit uncontrolled atm. These won't be in a real swing until i'm done.

Okay so starting with p2, any comments about this is greatly appriciated as I find it pretty hard to find reliable information. Okay so the swingthoughts from P1 to P2 is.

  • arm and shoulder work together and keeping that triangle.
  • from backview the hands should end up about where my toes are.

Questions from P1-P2:

Should the right arm bend a little more?

According to the black line should my hands be more out or in?

According to the white line should my hand be higher or lower?

Is my shoulder plane to steep or flat?

    • Hi @RetiredOldMan!  I am glad to see you are still playing and having good scores.  I hope that when I am 79, I am not only able to play, but still able to produce as good scores as you have been doing.   I look forward to hearing more of your success and your opinion of the senior flex shafts.
    • Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.
