Try and feel that you are delivering the club to the top of the ball from the outside/farside. At present your clubface is too open at impact. Also think pull not push. The situation is being compounded in your mind!

golf guide answers:

Whoever told you that you are not suppose to clip the ground when practicing without a ball is retarded….. You should work on ball position in your set-up by swinging like you were hitting a ball…. And make a divot…. Proper ball position is the most key factor and most over looked factor of the swing….. Work on getting the ball in the right spot of the down swing and your ball striking will improve drastically.

golf guide answers:

Heres my advice. If your short game is holding you back, why are you more concerned with your golf swing. Send in a short game clip of yourself and practice your short game more. Good Luck.

Do not worry about keeping your right arm staight. That will lead to tension and kill your swing. You have a little bit of a reverse pivot. Your weight appears to start slightly on your front leg and you never get fully stacked over your left side at the top of the backswing.

Edit: To Phil: Exactly, dont worry about keeping your left arm straight. You do want the left arm extended but not locked straight. Trying to keep your left arm completely straight will limit your turn in most cases. Occasionally you will see a player who can keep it straight but not a lot.

Pretty nice swing. Your setup looks really good. I would probably suggest in the last video, that your swing is a little over the top. Not bad, but if you pause the video at the top of the swing, you can see your wrists going kind of up and down. It looks like you might hit a slight cut/ fade or a little pull. One thing, I did notice is that you sort of start your swing with your arms. You probably should sort of start with a turn of the shoulders to start your swing instead of the arms/wrists. It is extremely hard to tell just seeing one swing, but that is what I think that I see. I suggest that you get this golf program. It is called V1 golf. It is an app that you can get on your phone or computer. It analyzes and compares your swing to those of the pros. You can draw lines, circles, or whatever. It is not that expensive either.

Keep you head down and drop your hands before you turn your hips. Also keep your lower back strait and only bend your upper back it may feel a little uncomfortable at first but it really helps alot

golf guide answers:

It does work for minor improvement. However it will only knock 2 strokes off of your game.

golf guide answers:

Hey dude you have a great swing plane and rotation. One thing to watch out for is your right leg on the downswing. Watch your right leg as it bends at the knee. Your bent knee is making your head drop. This can result in hitting your irons and wedges fat. Try to keep that leg straighter, although it will still need some flex in it. If you do, you will see an increase in distance too because you right leg has a lot of power that you don’t know you are using. Here is a link that will show you the ideal position at impact. Keep that leg straighter and you’ll do great with that swing.

golf guide answers:

Think of your arms as the extension of the club to attach it to your body core, so your take away should be the rotation of your shoulders and not your arms.

Having said that, the initial take away is a level movement of the club head moving away from the ball. Imagine you have a straight line parallel to your stance behind the ball, your take away should follow that line for as long as you can without shifting your body or head sideways. The club will naturally move upwards if you do this.

Yes, take away and up-swing effects your down swing somewhat, but you’re probably swinging on a wrong swing plane to cause your downswing to be messed up. Regardless of how you get the club to the top of your swing, it should be parallel to the ground, pointing at the target, left arm straight (for right handed golfers) and body properly coiled. Think of dropping the club’s butt end towards the ground on your initial down-swing, once the club is half way down, think of ‘chopping’ a hole (divot) under the ball, upon contact with the ball, left your club head continue flying FORWARD towards the target and let the momemtum of the swing bring the club back around your left side.

Do this in slow motion and get the feel of it first before start hitting balls. Also don’t try to kill the ball, let the natural swing of the club do it’s job, you just concentrate on swinging properly.

golf guide answers:

You could try standing a little further from the ball? That should flatten your swing some, but it could cause you to reach and start hitting a fade or slice.

golf guide answers:

Yeah, i used to have the same problem. When you take it back, it feels natural to take it inside, but try to take it staright back, which to you will feel like talking it outside. Also, toe to the sky is a good takeaway tip. MAke sure the toe of the club is facing the sky. Hope it helps!

golf guide answers:

U have to hold the B button and then it should let u pull back the controler to swing the club and hit the ball

golf guide answers:

I have several tips that if executed properly will drastically help your swing.

1. Keep your eyes on the ball until AFTER impact. Not only to envision the ball’s position and depth so you may come on contact with the ball, also because looking at the ball will help to stabilize your swing. Your head is connected to your shoulders, and turning your head on the backswing will sometimes lead to overswinging because your shoulders will have freer backward movement.

2. To prevent overswinging, consciously stop your backswing when your left arm is horizontal against your chest. This will give you control over your swing and as an amateur, if executed properly this will give you more than enough power to hit the ball.

3. When swinging, it is mostly shoulder movement. On the backswing your left shoulder should move to the center as your back is turned and your eyes are still on the ball. Then as you swing down, the right side should replace the left side as you impact the ball.

Good luck and hope my answer helps you.
