Early Extension Killing Me… Need Help

[ziggy10ten]

Anyone had any success of lifting left heel in backswing to help cure early extension?

tried pretty much everything else with no success.

 

cheers

I don't think that's got much to do with it.

You're probably early extending because… of something else. I think you should look for the root cause, not just look to fix "early extending."

That’s what I am trying to do

the cause is I slide instead of rotating my hips and get stuck

I early extend to save the swing

was seeing if people had success in left heel raise to help with rotation hence early extension

Good players do slide forward. They just turn as they do it. Stopping yourself from sliding isn't the answer.

You should consider starting a Member Swing topic so we can see video of your swing. You may be wrong about your root cause.

Ziggy, first I want to welcome you to TheSandTrap.  Second, I don't mean this to insult you, but you probably don't have the expertise needed to diagnose the cause of problems in your golf swing.  One great thing about this site is the good advice you can get by posting videos of your swing here:

Be sure to read the Hidden Contents so you understand how to take good video of yourself, and how to post it to Youtube.

Last, I hope you'll feel free to contribute to many of the different threads.  Its always great to hear fresh viewpoints and new stories.
