Saw this in an Instagram Story, lost the source already such is the firehose of data these days but I think it was chhowardgolf on Instagram so credit to him or whoever golf person I follow on Instagram.

I'm going to guess down the line because that's the most prevalent angle, the ones instructors choose to take, although maybe it might be that face on is a harder angle to get at some ranges.

I went with DTL. I have an absolutely sub-moronic sense of feel with the golf swing and zero natural talent. Most of my issues stem from faults most easily analyzed from DTL.

I would say face on based on what I have been working on lately. Mirror work is similar too.

I never really gave this a thought.   At my skill level both are quite necessary.  

If I had to pick one, I would say I would prefer face on.

Try closing your eyes when you watch ,,, lol

I like face on view for more definitive details.
This view gives you all club positions, rotation and weight transfer.
And tempo and viewing impact and balance through the swing.

DTL shows position at address with alignment of feet and shoulders.
Shoulder, hip rotation and hand positions and club path.

Eh, forced to pick, I went DtL.

But, some lessons I give are exclusively face-on (it often helps something DL too so I still record that, usually).

i think top/overhead view is underrated. at least for the stuff i'm working on now i like this one the best.

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
