I've been Playing Golf for: a few years My current handicap index or average score is: 100 My typical ball flight is: slice, push slice, fade The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: slice, push slice, shank [rule] Videos: [VIDEO]http://youtu.be/JO6yjUP0USA[/VIDEO] Hi all Thanks for taking a look at my swing. Im having problems slicing the ball, irons and driver. Magnified ++ with the driver. Irons will often be just a slight fade, but my driver i commonly send 2 fairways to the right .. Obviously some major flaws. Will try to get a side on video up soon. Appreciate any comments. Thanks

Hi all

Thanks for taking a look at my swing. Im having problems slicing the ball, irons and driver. Magnified ++ with the driver. Irons will often be just a slight fade, but my driver i commonly send 2 fairways to the right ..

Obviously some major flaws.

Will try to get a side on video up soon.

Appreciate any comments. Thanks


Welcome to the forum @anderjam .  I edited your post to imbed the video. Just putting the URL causes the system to hold your post as possible spam.  In the future, just copy the video url and use the video icon on the toolbar.  It looks like two sections of film.

Below is a screen shot of you at A5.5 to A6.5.  A5 is the position of your lead arm being parallel to the ground and A6 is the shaft parallel to the ground.  The screen shot shows you are coming over the top (left photo) and then moving your head back (right photo) to compensate so you will not miss the ball.  You are not moving your head before that point, at least as seen from behind.

I can't tell without a face on photo, but it may be because you are not getting your weight forward enough during the downswing.

Check out this thread.

And particularly, this video.

A face on shot would help too.  This drill and the other weight forward drills are a great start.  If you get consistent at Key 2, it is easier to improve the other Keys.  Best of luck.

Sorry i couldnt find the ' video toolbar' to embed.. Is it the icon 1 to the right of the "B"?

It looks like a strip of camera film.

Dont think its visible on an iphone, mobile version of this site. I got a B, a link button, a pic button, an At button and a trashcan. See below

Possibly not.  I use my computer to post videos.

You can just wrap the YouTube URL in [video]URL HERE[/video] tags.

    • You need to stick with one instructor as long as they’re not terrible. There’s no blueprint to improving a golf swing and different instructors may see different things as being more important and try to fix them. The end result is you get a hodge podge of things to work in that may not be cohesive or necessarily help you. If you stick to one instructor and communicate to them as such, they’ll also be able to work out a roadmap to your improvement which is more beneficial in the long run. If a guy assumes you’re just coming in for one lesson you might end up with a band aid.

    • Many thanks.  I read a lot of those posts.   Man, that is really deep.  As an old beginner, during a lesson or on the driving range, I have hit a good shot, you know pretty straight and it goes say 130 yards (7 iron).  The very next swing, I dig a ditch behind the ball.  I know I didn't do the same things on both swings.  Even this last lesson I had, I would hit a pretty good shot, not so on the next shot.  The instructor would quickly point out, "Hey you stayed on your back foot" or "Guess what happened there.  You got all armsy or handsy".  Sort of feels like I need a checklist when I prepare to swing each time.  I can see it now before every swing, "Hey can you guys give me 10 minutes while I run through my checklist".  In all seriousness, I see what you all are saying.  I wouldn't be overthinking it so much if just I could make decent contact most of the time.  Next lesson is about two weeks away.  Can't wait.

    • I was going to link in the same think @snapfade did.  Your swing is already consistent, repeatable, except for nearly "microscopic" differences.  The more mechanically-sound your swing becomes, the smaller and less frequent those "microscopic" deviations become.
