New swing...new problems

[jcbbeermonster]

First post yeah! I recently went for a driver fitting and the pro videoed my swing. I have a solid backswing but my spine angle was very straight up and down, getting my weight way forward at contact and a slight lean forward also (looked awful on screen). My drives had a low trajectory but I wasn't disappointed with the distance. I did suffer from the odd push. Pro said I was putting a lot of spin on the ball and getting too steep. The fix, ball way way out at my left toe, spine tilted back so it felt that I was looking at the back of the ball. Normal backswing but feel like I'm swing under my left shoulder, a nice shallow swing hitting up at the ball and the ball goes. The feeling is odd but the trackman numbers don't lie. Problem now is a feel that I'm not getting my weight shift down the line. Any tips or drills for getting my weight left but still hitting up with my driver? Ta, Jim

Welcome to the forum @jcbbeermonster ,

There are lots of drills, but it would be easier if you filmed your swing and posted the video in the My Swings section of the forum.  This way, we could help even more.  In the meanwhile, check out the threads below.  Playing the ball near your left toe is not unusual.  Many of us do that.
