Chuck’s swing is improving incrementally and it is obvious how much he works at it because his tendency is to overdo the things he is working on rather than to resist change. In this lesson I focus on 4 major items…

As you can see from Doug’s email he is an avid student of the game, and in this video, I hope to get him on the right track as he tries to improve his ball striking. My main issue with Doug’s swing begins with his arm position at address and how that affects the takeaway. This is another example of a common pattern among players who like to keep their right arm stiff at address and their upper right arm firmly against the body in the backswing.

Chip has already made great strides with his swing after his first online lesson. He has stabilized his lower body movement to a great degree and has added a ton of width to his backswing as well. These improvements now give him a chance to focus on the next big issue, which is that of his hands looping back behind him in transition.

Chuck is a long time loyal member of the website and has been consistent with his online lessons as well as seeing me for a few in -person lessons as well. His swing has progressed consistently, and if he has any tendency it is to over-do the suggestions I make, which is really a good thing, as dialing back an overdone change is easier than correcting a stubborn inability to make any change at all.

This is the first time I have been face to face with Phil after 5 online lessons spread out over a couple of years. Phil likes the progress his swing has made (or he wouldn’t be showing up in Florida) and I think that if you go back and look at his older lessons you will agree with him.

John has been pretty relentless in his online lesson taking, and just look at how his swing has evolved. Not only has his swing gotten mechanically better, he has been hitting it better on the course and shooting better scores. I think that anyone could improve or at least be encouraged that improvement was possible simply by watching the process as we attack John’s chronic flaws and try to simplify his technique.

This video is a great example of how posture and stance affect the entire swing. In watching Kory’s swing at regular speed, I saw some nice motion with good rhythm, but I also noticed a general lack of structure from face on and not much hip depth from down the line. After a closer look, I saw that Kory’s posture was quite erect, and that his right foot was extremely flared out.

If you want to see how you can improve your swing via online lessons just watch my lessons with John Lamendola. He sends his swings, I make suggestions, and then he works on it for a while and sends another swing. If you think about it, say you had a great teaching pro at your club and you had the opportunity to conveniently take a lesson with him or her every week at a reasonable price: would you take advantage of it?

Chip is lucky enough to be a member at Winged Foot, which is where he met another long -time website member and online lesson taker John Lamendola. John has done an amazing job rearranging his swing, and suggested to Chip that he send me a swing. In the video, you will see that Chip exhibits some common swing patterns that compromise his ability to square his club face consistently and compress his irons.

Wayne, “It feels pretty good overall. The start of this year my play has been good and I managed to get to +4 which is cool, but largely thanks to good driving. My iron play is sporadic; with some misses that are too large and I definitely still need to improve the knock downs we worked on last year. – In this video lesson, you will see that Matthew (who incidentally has an excellent swing) is spot on about his concerns with his lower body movement and how that contributes to his right arm issues in the downswing.
