Overswinging

[Wolfman]

My next game i am planning to mentally swing a 3/4 swing


In the past i have been guilty of overswinging causing breakdown of arms etc


Has anyboy else had this issue and what were the faults that were removed with a 3/4 swing

I am hoping for better direction and contact with slight loss if any in distance

By no means an expert, but i had same problems wi overswinging and my pro told me to have my arms and club in an L at the top of my swing. Sorted lots of problems out for me and actually increased distance, kept swing connected and helped with direction too.

I had a problem when I used to try and rip the face off the ball with every shot. I've slowed my swing speed down and have a deliberately slow back swing which I believe mentally maps the swing path for the downswing

On your back swing Try just taking your left arm, if right handed, back to nine o clock position or parallel to the ground.

Problem i used to have. A 3/4 swing is just so much easier, more compact and will help you find the sweet spot far more easily.

The key word is control. I used to be all over the place with my arms but i now feel like I control my golf swing, it's not just pot luck whether i hit it well or not.

Have a problem with getting the club across the line. Not good for a 1 plane swing but it is getting better. I need to work on it more. When I feel I have made a 3/4 swing it is still longer than I think. Hard to keep it short
