Also you are way too narrow at the top. That's a huge power leak and you need to work on getting your hands away from your torso and maintaining that width from your body to your hands on bs and ds.

Your hands are also too low, get them higher but probably work on that later. You would benefit from shortening your swing it's a little ****ed up. The feel of the drill I'm going to tell you is that the second you feel your right arm breaking from its angle at address, start downswing.

I see other things but work on your hands and keep your right elbow from breaking down brah.

thanks for the embed..

the narrowness is deliberate, i've been working on a 'single plane' swing where the arms follow the plane of the shoulders. You are talking about a two plane swing, which I used to have and is more powerful but I wasn't particularly straight with it.


My goal was to get the butt and head of the shaft moving on the same plane all the way up, all the way through. As long as I clear my hips, it works great. Id need to draw some lines on the still frames to illustrate that.

follow him on wrx a bit. Quite like Eric Cogorno as well. He's not wrong, but would he say Hogan didn't have enough width?

Looks like you pushed it to me right off the start. Or was this your intention. You barely hit the backstop

basic golf geometry: (from left to right for a right hander)

pull hook (over the top plus closed face)

pull(OTT plus straight face)

slice/fade(OTT plus open)

straight

draw/hook(inside plus closed face)

block/push(inside plus square face)

pushed block(inside plus open face)


I hit a draw, hence inside to outside swing, ball starts right moves left will video next time at range just for you

Yep, that's what i spit out to my buddies when my draw/fade/ doesn't come back as it lands in the woods too bro. But then again...i don't claim to be a scratch golfer neither.

The difference is I wasn’t calling you out on your golf, so you get to play off scratch.
