I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years

My current handicap index or average score is: 10
My typical ball flight is: high
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: low fade

Sorry for the video being a little blurry, it's not like this on my phone, not sure why it is now. I've never had any lessons and I have taught myself from practice over the last couple years, can anyone help me with what I may be doing wrong and what i should work on?

Thanks for posting. Can you get a face on view as well? That would help. You swing looks pretty decent for only two years playing and no instruction.

One thing you may want to look into is your posture at set up.

Thanks, I have noticed that I seem to be sort of bent over instead of keeping my back straight. I'll take a side view of my swing next time I go to the range or the course! 


Welcome to the site @Mattmccain15. Lawrenceville...  just north of Atlanta? I once worked with someone who lived there.

The link to the thread @boogielicious gave you helped dispel some myths I'd be led to believe about keeping my back "straight" at address and during the swing.

Good luck.

Stance is pretty wide, and your arms are slow to come down on the downswing.

What do you mean arms are slow to come down on the downswing

They're behind the sequencing of your body. They're lagging too far behind.
