Afternoon all

As many of you will remember a few months back I asked if there would be any interest in getting some feedback on your swing from one of Golf Monthly's Top 25 coaches. Well, we have finally got ourselves organised at this end

The Top 25 coach giving advice will be Neil Plimmer. Neil is a fellow of the PGA and one of the UK's most dynamic young coaches. For more details on Neil check out his profile here http://www.golf-monthly.co.uk/instruction/toptwentyfivecoaches/257105/neil-plimmer.html

To get your free swing check from GM Top 25 coach Neil Plimmer please upload a video of your swing - Ideally taken from down the line and face on - to YouTube or similar and then post the link to the "ASK THE EXPERTS" forum

Please make the title of your post as follows

"My swing - YOUR USERNAME"

Neil will be reviewing the videos from the start of next week and posting his comments as often as he can

All the best

I think that Mike means from behind your right side (if playing right handed), and looking down he fairway / range, and from directly looking into your face at the set up position.

In clockface mode where 12:00 is the fairway / range. The shots are from the 3:00 and 6:00 positions. Or 9:00 and 6:00 if you play left handed.

Hope that helps.

Sorry for any confusion, to confirm down the line and face on are exactly as hapless describes

One angle is better than none but certainly Neil will be able to see more with both views. You could do them as separate videos unless you're a bit of an editing whizz

Great service Mike. I'll do mine over the weekend.

Is it worth putting a little something about our swings e.g. I normally pull my shots or I tend to slice my driver, or will Neil automatically pick this up?
