Full swing yips??

[hovis]

My playing partner has recently been told by a pro that he has the yips at impact (especially with his driver) causing him to flick at the ball. Is this a thing? Never heard of hips outside of putting and chipping before!!

the take away is fine but he freezes at the top and takes an age to start the downswing

Nope, never heard of a full swing yip. I can kind of understand it in principal but would have thought as opposed to putting and chipping where there is less speed in the mechanics, a full swing at speed wouldn't cause a "yip" motion. Would it not be simply flipping with the hands (getting trapped etc)
