hey ur probably never gonna read this but you have too much knee flex. :) also a tip, never listen to random strangers giving you tips on swinging the club and stuff cause its usually completely off, only listen to a trusted professional.
You have great tempo but your feet line is pointing to the right and your club is pointing to your target are you trying to hit a draw? anyways its a good looking swing.
your backswing is a little bit to far which means ur lower body will want to move to the side and thats why your head is on a angle, it should be straight but everything else seems good
It's a nice swing. You look like you're tall. Maybe try standing up taller and a little bit closer to the ball? However, it looks fine as is. Do whatever feels comfortable.
pretty good but i notice your almost doing a reverse C you got to keep your head still your head is leaning in at the back swing also there is no way your that fast on the golf course with that rhythm your only hitting that fast because your hitting ball after ball so sloooooow down
nice...i would pay attention to your balance at the adress. seems like your weight is on your heels..then it kind of moves around through your swing. Also watch the plain coming down...a little inside...i bet your were/are hitting it a bit scrapy through impact...not that pure flush feeling everytime. try and feel as iff the club head is always working outside your hands on the way down (invision this from DTL). any ways good luck..check my swing out!
a good swing def better than mine n im sure it wrks very well. im no swing coach, but it seems the face is very closed at the top of the swing. n it seems like ur head drops alot as u head into the downswin..i could b wrong but thts wat i saw. either way, a great swing
Not bad only thing i can see is you setup is to A symetrical and you aim a bti to far right looks like you may pull shots. You seem to have a light dip on the downswing but that ok. You need to foucus a better weight transfer on the forward swing all in a smooth motion this will cause you to hit better shots more often i can tell you shoot like 3 4 over.
It is a nice swing but your address does not quite look right,maybe a tad too much knee bend and it looks like the weight is too much towards the heel. Your head is too up also , look more at the ball like Hogan and Nicklaus did. Your head will seek this posistion in the downswing anyway. Other than that your start down is really good as is the rest of the swing.Just get your address better and the rest will fall into place. It is a very good swing.
yeah i bet you all REALLY know the golf swing, the truth is you dont, so you dont have the knowledge to say anything about this guys swing. Stop acting like you know what you are talking about
1st: Your shoulders are aimed just left to your feet, idk where your aiming so idk whether its ur feet or shoulders,
2nd: at the top of the backswing u put too much torque into it and it seems you are trying to start accelerating too early, (most of the club head spped happens half way through) and also your head takes a good dip downward. Its important to keep your head still especially through imapct.
Looks solid, but it looks almost like you are decelerating on the downswing. Focus on accelerating through the ball. Accelerate from slow coming from the top of the back swing to max speed at the point of impact and through
i love this swing. Even if it doesnt follow the modern golf swing mechanism...it has perfect rythm....why do u need a good swing to be good??? John Daly and Phil Mickelson take the club to much back across the line. Tiger squats. Sergio drops his hands tremednously and you know what....i bet they could fuck u up in the cours eany day u bastards....this swing is 5 stars
idk im trying to figure out if its coming out to a slice cause his back swing looks real in if you as me and he moves to much during the down swing i mean you move your shoulders up a little if you notice but you have a excellent turn of the body i cant tell you that so you must have alot of power in there i mean very nice turn but still a little to fast
i applaud your pre shot routine in order to get that first key position in the back swing. Just watch your left shoulder as it drops slightly in the backswing because this can cause you to hit it fat.
ur swing is very smooth and rhythmical but ur backswing doesnt need to be that long to create the same distance...shortening ur backswing will result is more consistent accurate shots!!
I'd say on working on hinging your wrists earlier in the backswing. That will eliminate the lifting of the shoulders that you have that causes your slight reverse pivot. This will also help you get ur weight shift better and reduce the amount of C in ur finish.
yeah reverse pivots suck and will cause you to be an average or below average player like jack nicklaus, tom watson and some current players like rory sabatini or bubba watson. damn james yang you must be a sorry excuse of a player with a perfectly straight ball flight . you must listen to the ippissimus and change that swing. or listen to the other professionals on here. you never know it might be leadbetter or haney in disquise.
It's a good swing. Set-up is good, positioning is good, and tempo and rhythm are good. If I can offer a criticism, I would say that there is a little dipping movement of the upper body during the downswing. Otherwise the swing is very efficient (i.e., very little wasted motion).
i think it's funny how people critique your shot. If you hit the ball straight then who cares how you hit it.... Jim Furyk would probably be critiqued on youtube but he's an amazing golfer. His swing is far from perfect but he compensates. This shot is extremely good and although maybe your shoulders "spin too fast" or you "turn your wrists wrong" the ball is going from point a to point b and that's all that matters... nicely done
I think people only critique a swing that doesn't fit all the fundamentals is because a swing that is fundamentally sound is more consistent. Someone that has made compensations all their life may indeed become great but if you were to ask Jim Furyk or many other tour pro's if they would go with a fundamentally sound swing from the day they first picked up a club I think they would do so. They stick with the compensations because that swing has been ingrained in their minds over a lifetime.
I thought i'm the only one using headphones while practicing my swing (at least at the driving range I go to). Lot of people think it would be distracting but it helps your tempo right?
Keep your heady steady bro. You have a very nice turn but your head is dipping in your back swing too much. Work on keepin your head on one plane then rotate starting with the shoulders then use that good lookin turn.
why is this comment not liked? its true and you do move your head too much which is ok on the driving range where there's no pressure, wind and theres an perfect lie but on the course you won't be able to get your timing right as consistently as if your head was still. But otherwise nice rhythm and looked like a good strike, all swings are different but in general keeping your head still leads to better ball striking in the long term
your club face is shut at the top and your slightly across the line ..being across the line isnt to bad tho you might want to check or grip out because your rist action looks good and there not bowed....im a pga pro check out my videos or ask for help if needed
Yeah, from these swings you don't seem to be too far inside at all. You start inside, but at the top of your backswing, you're very much on plane. And please do not take the advise of all these idiots who say slow the swing down. I think we all know what happens when we try to slow the golf swing down. One thing slows down, other things stay fast, and you start spraying shots. DO NOT CHANGE A TEMPO WITH WHICH YOU ARE COMFORTABLE. It's nonsense to say you need to slow down so u have time 2 think
i agree w/ this statement, dont listen to youtube people even if they are good golfers, its hard to say fix this fix that by watchign a 30 sec clip and not knowing what type of shot ur trying to hit and where it is going
Mate, you swing really well with a perfect plane and throughswing, but it will help a lot more if you could slow your swing down a bit. It will give you time to think about the movement.
Slow your back swing down so you are not creating a false postion at the top. The dip in your club head during your tansition is evidence that you are arriving to the top throungh momentum. This can cause you to do the same thing by using your hands again to start the club back down instead of starting the swing from the ground up. nor are you holing your angle through your downswing, which is also evidence that you are not swinging from the ground up.
Pretty decent move, dude. If I was going to make one critical comment it would be that you might give some thought to your slight overswing at the top which produces some disconnection of your arms - which can affect your timing if you're not really "on" that day. Obviously there's a lot of good there though. Keep working on it!
Nice full turn, but at adress your weight is too much on your heels, by that i mean that you should lean a bit more over the ball at adress.. btw not hating, i think your swing is great
at 0:11? do you mean at the top? if so then I agree. at 0:11, i was working on matching up the angle of the clubface with the hand, which is neutral. thanks for your comment
you can stand a little farther away from the ball with a little less knee flex. at the same time you want to bend over a bit more and arch your lower back at the same time.....your balance should feel more centered and solid rather than on your heels
don't listen to cupon. you don't want to arch your lower back, it restricts your hip/shoulder turn. i had a lesson w/ kevin schmultz out at leadbetter a few months back and he was actually trying to get the arch out of my lower back, it was amazing the impact it had too
Hey tell Kevin "Pan" says Hi for me please. It depends on how much arch you actually have in your back. Some people do it too much some people too little. Just from what see in his video he could use a little bit of it.
alright will do.. i'm gonna have a lesson w/ him here in the next couple weeks. I usually see him like once a month bc he's so damn expensive ha. yeah but when he was workin w/ me he was trying to get me to have a flat back. he even said that they used to say pointing your belt buckle at the ball w/ that bit of an arch was perfect posture. apparently he doesn't say that anymore. but i see what you're saying
You need to stop listening to people - Ben Hogan use to say amateurs like to say whats wrong with a swing but it's usually just a product of a fundmantal flaw - You just have Tiger's old problem from his amateur days - you dip your head down too much to get too much power, hence coming across the top, etc, etc. Great swing and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
I know there is a place to hit balls on the grass around you even if you have to drive a little bit. Hitting off of the mats is not good for your golf game. Im pretty sure your backswing is too upright also. I had the same problem as you taking it too far inside and then I over corrected and went too upright. Now im working on getting on the right plane. Bottom line your swing looks pretty good, but dont hit anything but your driver off the mats. 2-6 index.
actually your swing plane is probubly fine. I like how your right elbow is above your left elbow at hip high in the backswing. Anyway it still stands about hitting off the mats. Mats are garbage and bad for your joints too. Divers are cool to hit off the mats but thats it.
from this view your spine angle changes a great deal from address to top of backswing, etc., = a lot more practicing for consistent results. study steve elkington.
& you take the club slightly outside the line on the take away. you can see the club head not coming straight back. which is okay if you want to hit a fade.
I wish I could. I'd love have his swing but I'm not really copying his exact positions, but look ing at his swing bit to correct my faults, as I feel that he has a very accurate and powerful swing that suits my average stature. Thanks for your interest!
follow through is great. one thing i noticed though is that you move your head a lot. might want to try and work on keeping it still, but great swing!
Great swing! You might consider tightening your motion up by working on some one-plane swing concepts or mac's stuff. It looks like you might get a little stuck under the plane on your downswing. Good luck.
hi ya, U notice your practise swing to 8 oclock the club face is closed? that stays that way to the top of the swing too, keep working setting the club at 8 but make sure the club face is pointing up and the shaft level with your hands, may be a little closed at address too. hope this helps:)
hey i think ur knees should not be flexed as much as it currently is. try keeping ur legs fairly straight, leaving ur knees relaxed will be sufficient. the more u bend ur knees, the flatter ur swings gonna be. it also causes ur weight at address to be to be distributed too much on ur heels instead of the balls of ur feet which once again, causes the take away on the inside. u're right man i do live in asia and i hate my tempo. cheers
James, RP would make you swing inside/flat normally not outside steep. Your set up as i mentioned before leads you to your plane faults. Heely/pos arm hang. post front on vid too next time. jimbojangles
are you listening to fast music or something!! Get on your toes more and slow it down then give Tiger a call and tell him he's been training wrong he needs to bring his sterio out with him. You're the only 3 HC I know who says I'm off about three like your not sure I know my exact HC 10.8 Only pulling your chain you have a good swing

at 0:11? do you mean at the top? if so then I agree. at 0:11, i was working on matching up the angle of the clubface with the hand, which is neutral. thanks for your comment

you can stand a little farther away from the ball with a little less knee flex. at the same time you want to bend over a bit more and arch your lower back at the same time.....your balance should feel more centered and solid rather than on your heels
cupon00do 3 years ago
don't listen to cupon. you don't want to arch your lower back, it restricts your hip/shoulder turn. i had a lesson w/ kevin schmultz out at leadbetter a few months back and he was actually trying to get the arch out of my lower back, it was amazing the impact it had too
missingsolution 3 years ago
Hey tell Kevin "Pan" says Hi for me please. It depends on how much arch you actually have in your back. Some people do it too much some people too little. Just from what see in his video he could use a little bit of it.
cupon00do 3 years ago
alright will do.. i'm gonna have a lesson w/ him here in the next couple weeks. I usually see him like once a month bc he's so damn expensive ha. yeah but when he was workin w/ me he was trying to get me to have a flat back. he even said that they used to say pointing your belt buckle at the ball w/ that bit of an arch was perfect posture. apparently he doesn't say that anymore. but i see what you're saying
missingsolution 3 years ago
posture's in your heels and looks like your picking the club up. if you did a straight on view you could see this

You need to stop listening to people - Ben Hogan use to say amateurs like to say whats wrong with a swing but it's usually just a product of a fundmantal flaw - You just have Tiger's old problem from his amateur days - you dip your head down too much to get too much power, hence coming across the top, etc, etc. Great swing and don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

I know there is a place to hit balls on the grass around you even if you have to drive a little bit. Hitting off of the mats is not good for your golf game. Im pretty sure your backswing is too upright also. I had the same problem as you taking it too far inside and then I over corrected and went too upright. Now im working on getting on the right plane. Bottom line your swing looks pretty good, but dont hit anything but your driver off the mats. 2-6 index.
cjcollas 3 years ago
actually your swing plane is probubly fine. I like how your right elbow is above your left elbow at hip high in the backswing. Anyway it still stands about hitting off the mats. Mats are garbage and bad for your joints too. Divers are cool to hit off the mats but thats it.
cjcollas 3 years ago
from this view your spine angle changes a great deal from address to top of backswing, etc., = a lot more practicing for consistent results. study steve elkington.

jordan123golf 3 years ago
& you take the club slightly outside the line on the take away. you can see the club head not coming straight back. which is okay if you want to hit a fade.

drinkingsaki 3 years ago 2
I wish I could. I'd love have his swing but I'm not really copying his exact positions, but look ing at his swing bit to correct my faults, as I feel that he has a very accurate and powerful swing that suits my average stature. Thanks for your interest!

Seems like you bring it back fast and finish with de-acceleration. But maybe not. not sure. Still a good swing to shoot even every time you go out.
kipman11 3 years ago
follow through is great. one thing i noticed though is that you move your head a lot. might want to try and work on keeping it still, but great swing!
killabanana84 3 years ago
Only thing wrong with this is that it gets a little bit across the line and over-parallel at the top. Other than that, not bad.
halooshk 4 years ago
Your swing is similar to Tiger's Amateur swing.
Maybe if your shorten the arm swing a little you will look like Tiger at his best.

hey man nice swing if u want any advice id say ur goin very lightly passed parrelle at the top but other then thts nice swing
shoxstun 4 years ago
Great swing! You might consider tightening your motion up by working on some one-plane swing concepts or mac's stuff. It looks like you might get a little stuck under the plane on your downswing. Good luck.

hi ya, U notice your practise swing to 8 oclock the club face is closed? that stays that way to the top of the swing too, keep working setting the club at 8 but make sure the club face is pointing up and the shaft level with your hands, may be a little closed at address too. hope this helps:)

why do you hit that hard, you could have twice as much control if you crank it down to about 75-80%.
deterlov 4 years ago
That was my controlled swing, believe it or not.

weight driving through on the left side nicely on the backswing. i would imagine u hit it quite far?

moo690 4 years ago
hey i think ur knees should not be flexed as much as it currently is. try keeping ur legs fairly straight, leaving ur knees relaxed will be sufficient. the more u bend ur knees, the flatter ur swings gonna be. it also causes ur weight at address to be to be distributed too much on ur heels instead of the balls of ur feet which once again, causes the take away on the inside. u're right man i do live in asia and i hate my tempo. cheers

Put your music player in your back pocket and wire your headphones from behind along your back. No more pesky wires in the way.

James, RP would make you swing inside/flat normally not outside steep. Your set up as i mentioned before leads you to your plane faults. Heely/pos arm hang. post front on vid too next time. jimbojangles

are you listening to fast music or something!! Get on your toes more and slow it down then give Tiger a call and tell him he's been training wrong he needs to bring his sterio out with him. You're the only 3 HC I know who says I'm off about three like your not sure I know my exact HC 10.8 Only pulling your chain you have a good swing
