I saw my swing I video for the first time this week. I would post it here but for some reason the forum won't recognize the file type. What I saw is at impact my hands are ahead of my upper and lower body. The grip is pointing at my back sholder and from what I've seen its supposed to be pointed at mt front. Any help fixing this would be great I think it's why I hit my irons high and I hit a pull fade.

Post it on youtube then here. Sounds like you flip and come over the top though.

That's not really a question anyone can answer.

Flipping is lining up the shaft with the lead arm prior to impact with the golf ball.

You're an evolvr student?

Post a My Swing thread. Odds are your downswing is not where you want to focus right now. You're probably doing something in your backswing that cascades into a series of compensations throughout the downswing.

I can vouch for that... unfortunately.

Mike is right.

YouTube is pretty accepting. Just make sure perhaps that it has an extension. I've never had a problem uploading anything to YouTube. Full list here: http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/static.py?hl=en&ts;=2888402&page;=ts.cs .

Like my swing ... yes - still doing what you and Mike asked me to do. When I feel I'm waivering, I video, gag, and get back on course.

Yeah, that's why I asked. Scroll up. You'll figure it out. ;)

Edit: Okay, you didn't figure it out. Mike hasn't posted in this thread. I said that.
