You probably already know this but the fade is a result of you speeding up the downswing. Great shot when it's needed and even a great natural shot but just so you know why it does that!
why aren't you pro. I don't care how ugly your swing is, what matters they are straight, and if they are going beyond 280 yards then SUPER THUMBS UP!!!!
@azrebels thanks for the comment, but the truth of the matter is, there are hundreds if not thousands of other people in this world who can do the same. driving is only 15% of your game. it's important to keep yourself in play and hit as many fairways and greens possible while keeping the number of putts down to a minimum. easy to say but very hard to do
@azrebels I agree, the swing technically is very poor but the consistency is more than good enough. I definitely would recommend short-game practice. Godd luck in your golfing pursuit.
@15golfboy this is at McDain's Golf Center in Monroeville, PA near Pittsburgh. One of the best driving ranges in the country in my opinion...i was lucky enough to practice here often since i was 10
I'm not sure if you are doing this, but this is how I'm seeing it, your bending your knees a little to much, you should bend over and slightly bend your knees.
i agree with fourone im what you would consider long and to carry 300 is dreaming especially with the speed of your swing and hitting a fade having said that it is a long driver and i played a match against a guy in his late 50s possible 60 and he wasnt far behind me. just concentrate on keepin it staright that will save you more shots than hitting it long trust me
i dont know all i saw were straight long drives. but would agree a little straighter back just for good posture purposes. but honestly i need to model my driving swing like this a little more. easy backswing with a easier downswing.
@dillon1915 i'm averaging 300 carry and total ranges from 310-320. i'm still experimenting with different setups but the original setting seems to be optimal for me...really liking this driver!
@fourone213 While you may hit it 300+ on occasion. There is no way you averaged 300+ from the swings on this video. A couple of the pulled shots may of had a chance but the rest. no. I'm not saying you can't hit long drives, but a LOT of people don't seem to understand just how far 300-320 yards is.
@daskeg you are correct. when i revisit this video, i had quite a few pulled duck hooks and a few borderline powerfade/slice. a true average would be closer to 280 factoring those bad shots. on the course this may be lower depending on how many fairways i hit, conditions, downhill, uphill, flat etc. can't help but pad the stats a bit. ;)

your hunching and not bending drom the waist, leading to poor posture, otherwise beatiful shots!
