Hey all,

I got a little carried away with some video editing software, and thought that I should put up my best shot of my last round up for comments/tips.

I am a very average golfer right now and do not have as consistent a swing as I would like, so please view the video from the link below and give me your suggestions/thoughts.

What I think the problem with my swing is that I do not impact the ball with enough of a downward motion, this usually causes my balls to fly the proper distance but rarely do I take a normal divot and the ball flight I can't kick is very high compared to standard.

I appreciate any and all comments

From your video.....if you're bombin' it 315.....this is not what you need work on

Can't usually tell to much from an angle like this, but if you're having problems with iron striking it could be your swing plane is slightly flatter than it needs to be, IMO.

You might also be swaying a little too much, which makes it near impossible to hit anything consistent.

Don't get me wrong, I think your swing looks fantastic from this view, but if you swing your irons on a plane like this it might cause you problems, especially if you're swaying.

Try to get face on video of your iron swing, so the forum can look at things like weight transfer.

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
    • Day 264 5-24 Worked on getting chest through and arms down infront of chest. Contact isn't great yet but on video looking better.
