Rate My Swing: golfer1995

“Looking at your swing, I presume your handicap is coming down quickly as you have a good method.
“Things which I feel you need to consider if you want to get down even lower are double-check your alignment. I notice you have clubs/poles on the floor but tend to creep a little closed in your address position.
“This may be a tendancy because your swing is quite rounded and may produce a ‘draw’ flight, so you aim to allow for this.
“The fact your arms and club tend to swing a liitle across the body (flat) can lead to you attacking the ball sometimes too much from the inside, causing hooks and pushes.
“Many top players today adopt a ‘one plane’ flattish look to their swings but then rotate their body, arms and club back out ‘in front’ of them, swinging the club more down the target line and not letting it get ‘trapped’ behind.
“I would like you to experiment feeling the backswing a little more upright, and from here, almost feel you are ‘coming over the top’.
“This should produce a more neutral on line swing path and nicely compressed iron shots. Good luck and keep up the good work.”
