I've been Playing Golf for: 8-10 yrs
My current handicap index or average score is: 12 (mid 80s)
My typical ball flight is: Fade
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Slice on drives, fat on long irons (4-6)


Videos: 

 

 

I have noticed I come over the top in my down swing.  I have tried to practice staying on plane, but I can't seem to translate that swing into full power.  

Let me know if you guys have any tips!

You need to have the camera pointing down your toe line. Also, post a face on video even if you have to film it through those bay separators.

First, I would check your posture. You stand a good ways from the ball. Your head is also titled up. You have no room at all to swing outward from here.

Yeah thanks for the advice, I'll try to get some more clips.  I need more space to film than this packed range in san francisco

    • Day 5 - 2024-10-05 Hit some somewhat soft pitching wedges. The outside and inside, particularly the outside of the left thumb where my right hand goes on it, is still pretty sore. I don't think I'll do more damage, but I'm reluctant to do too much because I don't want to compensate or alter my motion.
    • Day 156 (05 Sep 24) - Played new to me course today, it’s near our beach place and have been wanting to play it for a couple of years now.  It’s a neat Par 70 that plays just over 6k from the tips, played the whites 5,500 +/-.  Tight fairways and severely undulating greens made for some great shot strategy.  Wound up with an even 80 that included two lost ball penalties.  Putter was solid - 28 total.  Wedge play kept the pars happening - 6 of the 9 pars were up and downs.  Not bad for the first time on a new course.
