good compact, balanced swing, if anything, i would concentrate on keeping your lag, or the angle between your forearm and shaft of the golf club on the way down. it kinda looks like you are "casting off".

Thanks, one of the things I've been focusing on is actually about my lag. I usually slice the ball pretty bad because my hands are still in front of the ball at impact, but lately, I've been trying to free up my wrists in order to keep the powerful lag, but still get a good enough release to keep the ball flying straight.

yeah, I think I have a mix of both types of swing right now. It's working for me though, I'll try and get my hips more involved in my swing next time I go to the range though.

I like your swing what handicap are you?

Wheres you weight in the backswing? It looks like it's quite a bit on your left side, but i'm probably wrong.

I really can't see too much wrong with that swing though. To me you look like you'd have a below 12 handicap?

I think you could get more hip turn in the backswing otherwise good job!

Thanks dude!

Im a bogey golfer with a few pars and birdies, my putting sucks.

with my weight, I really dont know. I just focus on keeping my head in the same position all the way through my swing, wherever my weight is is where it stays

You should close your shoulder line, that should help your slicing, but a good swing!

whats your average 18 hole score

You should try to lengthen your swing, it should give you more power and more consistancy because the power will be effortless. Try making you stance a little more narrow which will allow your hips to turn more so you can get more legs into your swing.

What does HEAD STILL ACTUALLY MEAN?. Don't turn head with shoulders during follow through like the obvious hackers. However, if you watch the pro's. They don't do this, but they do turn during backswing. THE KEY IS TO "LOCK YOUR EYES/NOT HEAD" TO THE GROUND(before/after the hit). Watch other guys, and ask yourself what does it mean to keep the head still? Try it yourself. This will allow you to have a bigger backswing, and your neck/head will no longer limit you. Good luck.

Dude,

Overall your pretty good, but I notice one small thing. During your take back your should "collides" with your chin and forces it to rotate back. Watch the pro's. Believe it or not they ACTUALLY TURN THEIR HEADS DURING THE TAKE BACK. This is key. If you keep your face and eyes squared to the ball(like pressing your face against a fishtank) it will STOP YOUR SHOULDERS FROM FULLY ROTATING BACK. This is what 99% of us(me) hackers do. Why? We're told to keep our head still.
