THanks man I've been trying to word this to my buddy who's an occasional golfer. He's got a good swing and learns fast but he tends to change position mid-swing. We're both in our twenties which explains why we use youtube.
I find that one of the most important thing (for me) is to make sure you're not setting up too far away from the ball. If your arms are stretched out to the ball at adress, it will cause a sweeping action instead of a downward action, causing you to top the ball. Try keeping your arms tucked nicely to your body. Imagine squeezing a towel under your right armpit and keeping it there throughout the whole backswing. With your setup slightly closser to the ball, you should get under the ball easier.
THis video was just great. I just could not stop topping the ball with my woods. I bent my knees too much and compensated causing me to lift up at inpact. I cannot tell you how many videos I looked at for help. This guy is great
Good advice! The worst thing you can do is place more weight on your toes than your heels because it is a very unstable position and once you lose your balance you cant make solid contact.....that is if you make any ball contact at all!
The weight transfer is from left to right while loading and then right to left when unloading. Its like a pitcher getting ready to pitch except ideally there is no vertical body movement; only horizontal!
I like the way this guy tops the ball on purpose so effortlessly and yet thats pretty much one of my better shots after some effort (at the moment) as ive just started, my second game ever is later today lol Hope this videos help, not sure why people slag them off and say stupid things to the guy posting these videos? Go pay lots of money for a coach if you dont like the videos.
this guy always has good video's, keep them coming, us newb's need them:-)

Too simple to make a video about it. Bend your knees and keep your head down.
