Been working on the swing with mixed results.

Down the line shows some success in staying in posture / not standing up


Front on shows I'm struggling to stop right hip from collapsing toward target on backswing. Am trying to prevent the reverse K shown by the blue lines. But failing :ROFLMAO:

Keep your right knee flexed

Good to see some other videos ?
Been working on the takeaway a bit, hopefully it shows a little

Not happy with over swing and transition but brain/body only coping with so much!

Good effort but as you say, the transition isn't helping.

This swing thought may stop over loading the brain......
On the backswing and downswing, try and keep the clubhead closer to your body.
Then, on the followthrough, throw it away from you down the line

It may feel that way but I promise you're out to in
Yes I am definitely out to in at the moment.. I can feel and see my plane. I can get the half swing in to out so just building it up and the bad shot shoots the ball straight right ? into the bush

Let me know if I am being over optimistic!!! Oh and I am growing a mullet

Much much better, you're almost there.

Nearly got busted over the balls hitting the walls .. boy stepped in and told mummy it was the wind blowing the doors ?
I don’t condone lying but when I have not signed off a house rule it doesn’t apply ? (yeah I know my word is of no value and if busted I will do as I am told .. but I am not the only one, BiL is seriously high in the army and he gets told what to do as well!)

So still working on it, video is keeping me honest!
I have managed to crush all the air balls with the driver, except the one that I hit into the gutter with my 56 degree wedge!
I dug out my speed radar to see if I could determine a speed increase with the driver. I was getting some consistent numbers I thought, little faster than the other week. But I gained 20mph when I picked it up and went into the garage !! Leaving me thinking it’s was probably unreliable.
Anyway I have hit a few 5 irons, at the house they came back straight and had climbed to a reasonable height ... wife did not notice the impact noises.

More tomorrow and try to keep the ball in the middle of the face.

I'm sure we haven't forgotten but golf is hard! Even just this golf swing part, is hard.
Anyway, the widget is reporting that my half down position is generally from a little on the inside now, whereas before it was mostly outside, so the needle has moved a bit.

Still struggling with lifting up (head) at end of back swing, and the forward shift on transition.

For this vid I was trying to focus on a better transition and shallowing.

Just another 27,000 to go :eek:

Quick question... air ball flight on a non windy day is it a reliable indicator? So if I am hitting them straight with a tendency on occasion to draw (about 1 foot) can I expect similar when I eventually get to hit a proper ball?
