In the video on unhinging, I talk about the unhinge moving the club downward and the body rotation moving it outward. So they balance to help create the swing plane. Since yours is steep, you need more up and down movement to be "on plane". Your two…

Hey bud,

Since you said it's fine on 30 yards and then gets worse on the longer swings, we should definitely look at what happens on the longer swings. What I see with the swings you posted is a number of good things:
The swing plane isn't too bad…

Can you post a video of you trying the unhinge? as well as the presetting it? It'll be helpful to see the difference.

But yes, your question (I don't understand how to apply force in an almost perpendicular direction once the club has speed). The …

Some fixes are quick, some take time. But the way to own your game, and be your own coach, is to understand what the changes actually did to improve. So in order to suggest more drills, we have to know which problem we are trying to fix. So what is …

Toe hits often come from pulling away from the golf ball. This can come from the arms or the body. But one thing to always check is set up. You're setting up quite a bit on the toe, and then it appears you are returning to the same spot around conta…

I think your steepening is primarily a lack of ulnar deviation, but the side bend (aided by the shoulder blade retraction) could help either way. It doesn't appear most golfers get to max retraction, nor stay at the max all the way through the relea…

The moe norman can definitely help, but to answer your question, no the over-the-top move can come from a handful of causes.
The most common causes of over-the-top are:
- Spinning the shoulders instead of turning the hips
- Pulling the left shoulder…

Hi Scott,
I think it becomes more automatic. I often have students comment on how they no longer feel like they are doing the motorcycle move. But the face is square on video and the ball is no longer slicing. This often happens when we are working …

It's a little blurry on the video, but it looks like you have some decent trail wrist extension. Can you do an impact fix drill, and then follow it up immediately with a 9 to 3? I'd still like to see more separation from your hips and torso (check o…

Your single-arm drills are definitely revealing. Take a look at the screenshots. The trail arm looks really good and the lead arm could use some work. Basically, try and match the body position for the trail arm. If you look at the lead arm only, no…

I would start with a simple 9 to 3, trying to hold the follow-through position, and see which is the bigger problem:
Is the body not turning or are the arms passing the body?

If it's the body, then I'd work on pivot drills like impact fix, merry-go…

I think right hip depth is only as important as it relates to other ideas. It's helpful for hand depth. It's helpful for torso side bend. It's helpful for loading the lower body (glute). So I usually monitor depth as it relates to those ideas. A lot…

Hi Brian,

Thanks for posting your swing. One thing that has a big influence on ground contact is the amount of body rotation. It looks like your swing is more driven by your arms. Don't worry, that's a normal beginner trait. In the swing you poste…

Unfortunately, the videos were uploaded by others, not me, and those videos were lost in a server reset a few years back.

I reposted the video I created for Kevin. I hope it helps!
