In this series of photos (me on the left, my brother on right) I see that my arms are tucked in and club face open through impact. I obviously slice. Does anyone have thoughts on ways to correct this. [IMG][IMG][IMG][IMG][IMG][IMG][IMG] [/IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG][/IMG]

I'm guessing the swing experts would need to see more information.  That is a static image and you could get to that place in more ways than one I'm assuming.

For starters I'd wonder what your grip was like at address, and what your swing path looks like.  Do you have a wa y* to take some video?

I get jammed up through impact too, my instructor has me working on swinging out to the right more BUT that is what is recommended for me, as bplewis24 said there could be more than one cause and more than one cure...

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Wow, what kinda fancy-dancy watch are you sporting??

I have a video in "my swing". Mvmac has said that I'm too spinny with my hips and shared a lot of great stuff on weight transfer with me. I'm currently working in that aspect, but haven't taped anything since, so that may or may not have corrected my arm position through impact.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 3, April 11, after the Masters and before dinner, I had time (quite a bit of time, actually) to hit about two dozen practice balls, complete with the pelvis limiting drill.  As with the past two days, I would do the drill for pelvis limiting, then take slow rehearsals of the backswing, checking positions in a mirror, and then reset and hit.  These were all indoors, off a mat, into a net, primarily with a 6-iron, although a few were with a 9-iron.

      Day 234 4-11 Wrist arching and hips/chest in backswing. Really trying to hammer in the wrist arch, its such a  better swing when I do it correctly, its not in muscle memory yet.

      You know, I haven't followed much professional golf the past few years, and he wasn't the star of today's show, but I think I like this Sam Burns fellow.  I hope he plays well tomorrow.

      All of these missed fairways and the miraculous escapes followed by the seemingly reliable miracles suddenly stopping reminds me of another former Masters champion whose luck ran out on the 72nd hole of a major twenty years ago.
