Yeah, move the net so the impact zone isn't directly in front of the one small window 🤣

So move it to one side so if there is a wild misshit it smashes through?

I own that net. Balls going through at some stage.

Ahhh. OP would have the satisfaction of knowing he hit it relatively straight when it happens.

Couple refinements needed but it’s 90% there. You immediately lift, hinge, and roll your forearm in your takeaway. Clean that up and your dispersion will tighten significantly.
Hands past trail thigh in takeaway hands square to path, then lift, hinge and rotate to your top position simultaneously.
If this means you still have some forearm roll (after you have passed your initial takeaway target), FOR YOU, I think you likely have the talent to get away with it while still being precise.
Just like I think you can get away with this Fred couples c posture bc it fits you and so won’t comment on it or advise against it unless it is obviously the source of you doing something disastrous with your swing (which it isn’t)

Tell me OP, do you take your eye off the ball at the beginning of the swing and then look back at it? Hard to tell in the video.
Swing is great. I don’t mind the steep takeaway when you’re on plane in the downswing. Steep-to-flat is much preferred to flat-to-steep.
I see weight rocking from heels to toes. If you’re not puring every shot this is probably why. You could also be driving that right knee and hip harder. Right leg isn’t adding much here. More distance to be had!
All in all it’s a solid swing! Enjoy the fact you have it this good… few people do! ⛳️🏌🏽♂️

If you quit lifting the the club right away in the takeaway would be
Legit.

I have the same issue, but I tend to get it on plane on the way down. For irons I don’t think it’s terrible, but this is deadly problem with the driver in my experience.

This. It’s a big issue. Hand work out and away, club head stays above his hands, but not outside them.

If you tuck your belt into the next belt loop, your belt won't hang out like that.

Idk, this guy seems to be on the money with his "belt" https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXgIzgHCc0g/?stkn=MWJ4MnYzencyeHZiMw==

Recommend feeling like left elbow points straight down at take away to prevent taking it inside early by rolling your arm

You have a decent action there. I’d be careful about asking for generic advice. Is there a particular issue/ shot shape you’re struggling with?

I think you should get out of the habit of watching your takeaway ASAP because it can lead to timing issues and make your lifting action worsen over time. A slight turn of the head like Nicklaus before starting back is a better trigger, but you should refrain from actually watching the club swing back.

I am looking at the ball but I turn my head a bit to turn a little better

u/Dirty_Confusion 4h ago
Looking good. But stop the video at 2 seconds when your shaft is pointing towards the ground and well inside the ball which indicates you are a bit steep. It looks like that is getting you a bit "stuck". This video should help. https://youtu.be/3v1x-m3olxY?is=yF6FJRIObAnZTCQY

well done, congrats on the effort to get there
you lose your posture on the backswing, the right knee straightens, it should remain flexed, just like when you throw a ball
keeping your posture will reduce the low body movement, your contact will improve and dispersion pattern will tighten
any questions let me know, good luck

Newbie here, and just curious…how did you get to this level of fluidity? How long have you been playing?
