Right Sorry for the long detail, but hope you read on

Ok I have been playing golf for nearly 6 years and my handicap is 15.

I can hit my 7iron around 150-160. My driver can go around 280 with a good shot.

This season is my first real season I have taken golf pretty much very seriously and I have won a couple of competitions at my golf club, and I am in the final of a doubles knockout.

Saying all this….it has been done with a very flat swing, where as I take away I come around my body to far inside and my bad shots hook and I even pull alot. I tend to pull them on par 3s mainly.

I was going along fine with my swing untill back 9 of my game yesterday and I was hitting EVERYTHING with a high left pull.

Of course this could be just a bad round, or I am going to a bad spell.

I am thinking of changing my swing and sorting the proper swing plane. I could get some lessons and sort of go back to basics. Or I can play through it with my flat swing and fix it that way.

What would you do?

I really want to sort the swing out, I went the range today and just can’t do it. So I would need to get lessons.

The lower handicappers are saying sort the swing. Where the mid handicappers are saying stick with it because you have been winning like that, and it’s just a bad round like everyone does.

I have had plenty of good and bad rounds, but this was the one that sort of said sort the swing out.

Should I get lesson? Get a swing aid like David Leadbetter Swing Letter? Or Stay the same.

When I am at home I can see the correct swing path in my head and it seems really easy. When I try it even though it feels correct, I know it is not.
One other problem to add to my game is I am going away on holiday for 4 weeks soon.

Sorry for the long detail and I would apprecaite anything you can give back to me, please be constructive and as detailed as possible

Its weird, however i seem to keep a square clubface on my backswing, but my swing plane is across the line. Please help with a drill to overcome closing the face on the halfway back, or some advice please!!!

Tips on golf swing plane?

Posted by admin

I played yesterday and I played pretty well except I missed 4 greens all to the right with a short iron in my hand.I know my problem is that I’m to steep. I also missed some drives right. When I try to flatten my swing i drop my hands inside and get underplane. Does anyone have any drills that I could do to get flatter without dropping to club to far from the inside. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

Upright Golf Swing Plane?

Posted by admin

People always tell me that my golf swing is very upright and that I should really try to "flatten" it out. I’ve tried to work on this at the driving range but it just does not feel comfortable at all and i can barely make contact with the ball. I am far from a goof golfer(I generally shoot in the high 90’s), but I’m just curious if having this type of swing plane will hurt my golf game and do i need to switch to a flatter swing plane? thanks

How to fight a golf slice?

Posted by admin

I’ve been having trouble wtih a push and push slice in my golf swing. I’ve been trying to go more inside out but still have problems coming accross my chest….but like many I have a problem pulling my arms accross my chest early thus end up going outside in? Will early release of the club allow my arms to more naturally and easily go from inside out? Havent had a chance to go back to the range since i thought of this? What are you thoughts? Focus on the inside out and hopefully the cllub will realease in time…or focus on the club release and this will promote the inside out plane? Im trying to break the swing down in parts so i can figure this thing out…thanks.
i just went to the range and took a look at my ball flight…I dont think I have a typical slice…more of a push…or the extreme opposite a pull hook…after some research…i dont think i have an outside in swing plane…i think on the downswing i am over the top and am cutting down and accross the ball…so that if my club face is closed ill pull hook it…or if it is open ends up being mostly a push and sometimes slice if the face is extremely open…does this sound right?
Thanks for the help guys…i just got back from the range…after thousands of balls hit at the range…its finally clicked…i didnt have an outside in plane…i was coming down to steep then cutting across or down on the ball then i would pull across my chest….so that if the face was closed i would pull or hook it…if the face was open i would slice or push it…anyhow…figured that if i start from the feet and just let my club fall naturally so that its more sweeping action i would get that coveted in out swing plane…after i made an adjustment to the offset ( i was better with my 7-4 iron…until i understood that the shorter irons had less offset) …i would say 7 out of my 10 balls i had solid contact…the other 3 were either face open or closed…its finally clicked!

Sounds like you’re swinging with hands and arms. Try starting the club back by turning your left hip, then start the downswing by turning your right hip. Light grip, let your arms be passive and loose while trying to keep the left reasonably straight.

You can feel the club whip through on the inside. Your torso is much stronger than your arms, and will hit the ball farther. It’s just more intuitive to hit with your arms, that’s why golf is so difficult to learn.

Aslo, by using hip action you’ll make a much better turn back and through, should hit the ball more consistently.

visit http://www.AGameGolfInstruction.com for hundreds of golf instruction videos.
In this golf instruction video you’ll see one of the easiest ways to check your swing on your own and apply changes so that you can swing like your favorite pga pro. Set a camera up down your target line and hit several golf balls. Then review your golf swing on a television and compare your posture, swing plane, stance and tempo to other golf pros that you like. Use other videos or golf publications like golf digest to compare what you look like to what you should look like. Make adjustments and then hit more golf balls into the net. Once you feel like you look the way you should, then hit 100’s of golf balls into the net to groove your golf swing and build muscle memory so that you don’t have to think about what you are doing when you get to the golf course and you will be able to score better. You can tell a lot about how well you’re striking the golf ball by how the golf club feels in your hands at the time of impact and how the ball flies off the clubface. You can feel a solid hit or a not so solid miss-hit in your hands. A net is a very inexpensive way to learn to play golf well.

I am a right handed golfer. If my golf club is parallel with the ground at the top of my backswing and roughly perpindicular with my neck/spine, should my left wrist be sort of cupped (hinged backwards) or bent (hinged forward)? I’ve seen both but which is most common. I see a lot of players with bent wrists? it feels a bit wierd for me but looks like it keeps theclub on plane better for the pros.

Should be flat, but there are some VERY good players who have cupped wrist… if in doubt go see a good teaching Pro and get it sorted…
