Neh, I'm not doing any tournies this year. Bucks County is just outside of Philadelphia.

I'm 19. I've always usually had a slow swing all the way through. I figure that technology these days is insane, so I just let the club do the work I'm willing to give up 15-20 yards if it means I will be more accurate. I'm usually shorter than all my friends off the tee, but I'm also probably the most accurate with approach shots out of all of them. If everything else is right and smooth with my swing, the club will do the rest. My handicap is a 15, which I plan on lowering this summer. Thanks for the compliments.

I was at the driving range, so I guess it was someone else swinging behind my friend who was holding the camera.

Neh, that one started out pretty straight and then went left (slice for me).

Thanks for the help guys. I'll work on that next time at the range.

Hey guys. Here's my swing. Please criticize constructively. My misses usually go right to left (a slice for me since I'm southpaw.) so if you see a connection please share. http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...t=MikeGolf.flv Down the line: http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...=MikeGolf2.flv

I do make solid contact with the ball most of the time, so I guess I'll just keep it that way. I've just read so much about how negative it is, but after seeing some of the world's best having one, I don't feel bad anymore lol. Thanks for the help guys.

I tend to finish my swing with a Reverse C where I end up leaning back. Any ideas on what it should feel like when I finish the swing? I know I shouldn't finish standing straight up, so is it somewhere in between?

Do most of you attempt to go straight back straight through with the club, or do you start its path to the inside?

I'm pretty sure that it's an out to in path, but I'm no genius. The thing is though that I am making solid contact with the ball, and the ball has good flight. It's not a low ball path and slicing off. It starts out high and straight, and then starts to slice off to the left. I can usually drive it around 250 with the slice, but I feel that I can get an extra 10-15 yards of distance if I could just cut down on the slice. I've tried closing the clubface a little when I approach the ball, but I still get the slice so I figured that I was coming over the top.

Yeah, that's what I meant. I usually come outside in, and slice over the ball.

My swing is usually nice and smooth until I start the transition from the backswing to the downswing. I make crisp contact with my driver and irons, but my ball always seems to slice off to the left mid flight (I'm a lefty). I've read that the 2 causes of a slice are an open club face and coming over the top, and I'm sure I narrowed it down to it's me coming over the top. The funny thing is that if you tell me too, I can hit a hook. If you tell me too, I can hit a slice. But I can't hit a straight shot if you tell me too. I guess that's just golf for yah. I've heard about the Inside Approach training aid, but I don't feel like dropping money on it. I'm just looking for a drill I can do to prevent coming over the top. I really feel like I'm getting close to fine tuning my game to become more consistent. I know what my problem is, it's just I don't know how to fix it. I try to pretend that I'm hitting the ball out to left field, but that doesn't work too well either. Thanks for the help.

Is it more of a reverse pivot swing, because it seems like that's what it was describing.

I was reading this article also, and I found it a bit confusing. It seems like they were telling you to do a reverse pivot at the top of your swing, because it tells you to keep the weight on your front foot throughout, and tilt to your left on the backswing (for righties). I don't think it's something I'm going to try in the near future. Unless if I'm desperate

Gotcha......

Thanks for all the help guys. I'll definitely work on this the next time I go out. Iacas, sorry if my prior sig was inappopriate. I wasn't aware. It won't happen again though.

Hahaha, same here man. The service wasn't all that great there, but they made the best Eggs Benedict for breakfast. No clue what they're gonna put up there now. I heard a Wawa, but I'm not sure.

Sorry this is off topic to your question, but I noticed you are from Bucks County. I'm from Newtown, where are you at?

Hahahahahaha

Hey guys, Any tips on how I can prevent myself from swaying. I usually try to turn my left foot in a little, and flare my right foot (I'm a lefty), to try to get a proper turn but sometimes I can feel myself sway. Are there any drills I can do to see how the proper turn should feel?

Still waiting on mine, lol.

Michelle has a good swing, but in no way I would say she has the best. I love Ernie Els' swing.

Congrats man.
