I'm having trouble attaching my videos. They seem to be over 5MB, despite trimming them to about 8-10 seconds. Any help is appreciated!

Done! I put 3 videos on YouTube. They are all driver, as that was the only club you were allowed to use on the turf. I forgot to make a DTL video though.

I had to wait until I got to work today.  I couldn't post them with my phone last night. 

 

 

Read the link in Erik's post above yours. You still aren't embedding the videos properly. Just like in golf lessons, you need to follow the instructions. ;-)

Yours in earnest, Jason.

@djfajt71

Below is a screenshot of you at setup and at A4, the top of the backswing. First, your stance is a bit wide. I would try bringing your feet a little close together. Second, you are moving back during the backswing. This will cause you to have to move all the way back and more to get your weight forward at impact.

Check out the thread below. I would recommend you work on this as your first priority piece.

I went to download the video so I could mark it up, but found @boogielicious has already done so.

I'd also look at this drill:

It should help quite a bit.

The wide stance gives you the stability you need to sway as much as you do. So yeah, narrow that up considerably and do the wall drill. The other thread, the centered pivot thread, is good too.

    • Not really, no. I don't know the history, what you've worked on, what you've tried and moved away from… etc.
    • Day 9: 2/16/25 Putting through 50 mm gates from 11”. Swing pressure shift drills.
    • Definitely not a favorite… For some reason my wife and I started watching Cobra Kai. I know the original was pretty cheesy, but the inability of these people to get over shit that happened like 30 years ago is astounding. And these kids would be arrested, but they don’t even seem to get suspended from school. Would Danny not notice that Johnny’s son looks like Johnny? Etc.? Why would a completely different dojo that has the same name be “banned”? Oy. Not sure we’ll make it to season 2.
    • Day 139 - 2025-02-16 Weather led to a rescheduled GEARS lesson, so I used the time to work on my swing for 60 minutes or so. All downswing stuff. Some swings at 93 MPH. Most around 75-80.
    • A question I have is…this swing (fade, pull cut) does not  feel as good and easily repeatable as the draw swing we were working on previously.  I’m kinda in a weird spot where I do not know which direction will be the best to pursue. I like seeing a penetrating 5 yard draw but also like the thought of the fade not getting away from me as much.    Any thoughts on that?
