Post Your Swing

I gotta tell ya my swing has been turrible the last 3 weeks, like as if I'd never swung a club before. So I go to the range Sunday morning with the DST compressor and figure something out in the first 9 balls. I'd been setting up open and flipping bad, so what did I tweak? I'm basically doing the exact opposite of everything I think right LOL

 

Now I set up for a draw - turns out my body is square

Close my hips at address - guess what? square

Draw feeling takeaway - on plane and now I hit a cut

Relax my grip - was too strong and causing the hooks

 

Result - down the middle or baby fade every time....

 

Sorry for the back angle video  :D

The shoulder injury is really affecting my ability to do much consistent range work. Hopeful I can tighten up a few moves over the next month.

This is a better clip of the bread & butter 3 wood. Shows the turn I'm working my way back to (pre-shot) vs what I'm actually working with at full speed. Needs a lot of work. I'm frustrated about the loose shoulder; anxious to get back in the weight room.

Typically, I find my computer illiteracy to be rather frustrating because it prevents me from fully participating on this site and others.   However, in this instance, it somewhat is a blessing because I cannot and will not embarrass myself in this thread.

I have not forgotten about this and I will post my marvelous swing soon.  I like to keep those in the know on hold.  ;)

Got around to recording some more today. Here's a quick video of me on hole 4 at my home course. Green is just on the other side of the pond, about 185 yards.

Solid move

Thank you! Idk why the quality is so terrible. I don't understand iPhones and how they can't upload anything higher quality without finding a workaround.

You might have caught the better one. I edited the post and put in a higher quality one, hopefully that fixed it.

The bum shoulder is still causing some stability issues at both the top and at impact. But my setup and tempo are working toward normal. Still much rehab and dirt digging to be done but the progress feels good.

Thanks pards! After my crash at the end of last year, on top of a whole mess of other unrelated crap, I couldn't even get my right hand on the club. For better or worse, my general outlook on life is inexorably linked to my golf game and I was feeling sooo low. Because short game was all I could work on for awhile, I've managed to post pretty normal scores but my swing still feels like a mess. The long layoff has made me appreciate all this game has to offer that much more.

I know what you mean. I took a long break as well (thankfully not due to injury) but I'm so glad I found the game again. Only problem now is that I want to try all the new shinies that I see everywhere.

Generally speaking, I'm decent with my irons and long but inaccurate with my driver.

That's not surprising. You're a bit steep and a bit over the top. That's not necessarily bad, you can Bruce Lietzke your way around all day. But it does indicate a player who will likely be better hitting irons off the ground than sweeping a driver off a tee. I'm guessing you hit lots of nice little fade iron shots but can miss with the driver both dead pull or slice if the face gets too open. I don't know that I would overhaul it or anything, if it's repeatable you probably know what you can or can't do pretty well.

That's a really nice strike and nice video. What app did you use for the trace?

Gauss nailed it. Lately my miss has been pull hooks hitting the ball off the heel. A "good" shot is usually a block.

 

Any ideas for drills to help with coming over the top?

 

I also wonder a little bit if a different head/shaft combination would help me out. Would like to fix swing issues first though.

I was having the same miss a while ago. Getting steep too. Got on the impact bag, it helped through out the entire bag. I'm not a pro, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

 

When I turn back I point my left shoulder at the ball, my backswing stops at about the 3/4 mark, or at least looks like it.

 

Then I try to replace my left shoulder with my right shoulder on the downswing. More of a thoracic (is that right?) upper back, core and leg fire. Took my arms right out of the swing.

 

Check out impact bag drills. They helped me out a lot.

 

You could bump the ball forwars about 2 balls on the driver too.

 

*But see a Pro for the best results.

So I took the advice from Plaid in another thread and got the Michael Breed book on video analysis. Haven't made it too far into it but I've got a few takeaways to apply.

 

1. Think I'm standing too close to the ball. My arm angle at address is way too wide.

IMG_4272.PNG

 

Edit: Drew the wrong lines. This angle is one that's supposed to be close to 90 and it's not too bad:

IMG_4282.PNG

 

2. I'll try your other tip about moving the ball forward a scoche. Somehow it always works its way back in my stance and I have to pull my arms in to get to it.

IMG_4273.PNG

 

Edit: In light of newer information, the ball position isn't too bad as it should truly line up with my front arm pit (on driver swings). Like everyone says, maybe forward a ball or two.

IMG_4284.PNG

 

3. I fight this problem throughout the bag of taking it back too far. I should stop here:

IMG_4277.PNG

But end up here:

Just unleashing your inner Bubba. Make a solid turn from there and I bet you pick up some speed. If I was that flexible... man...

 

The impact bag will click in like 3 swings. Focus on what your shoulders are doing and your right leg. It's amazing what you feel when you slow things down.

 

This is the one I used. There are many.
