My Swing (dmackerman)

[dmackerman]

I've been Playing Golf for:

6 years

My current handicap index or average score is:

Around 90 - 100

My typical ball flight is:

It really depends. I can hit my driver dead straight, and I can also hit a wicked slice, and a wicked hook. This is the first time I've bothered to video myself, and I see some flaws already, but I'd like some advice perhaps. I also like to think my swing isn't too terrible. :)

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is:

The hook and/or slice

Videos:

Here's me hitting my driver at 1/2 speed. Sorry no other view, I'll try and get that next time. First shot I hit great, dead straight. Second shot I topped because I lifted my head up.

Some iron shots. I think these were a 6. I slowed the last few down to 1/2 speed for better analysis. To me, it seems that I have a real problem with my club trajectory, and my legs seem fairly "dead" if you will. I have a fairly strong upper body which I thinks tends to overcompensate for my lack of overall lower body strength.

Love to hear some thoughts! I've never really been critiqued by anyone...probably why I've never really improved!

Thanks,

Dave

Hmm. One thing I'm noticing immediately also is that my head seems really pointed down, and my back is rounded.
