It's time for all of my readers and listeners to see the golf swing behind the blog.It's early in the season and this is my first time at a driving range but I think it's worthy of a visual. All I can say is thank goodness for my impact bag. Isn't it amazing how much stuff we golfers collect around the house which we hardly use? The impact bag has long been one of my favorite training aids but has been sitting around lately gathering dust.
I personally think that my golf swing looks pretty good!
If you have a video camera it is always a good idea to bring it with you to the driving range.
Although you may not notice a flaw in your swing upon first inspection, I think that you will be able to compare it to other professional golf swings and notice a difference. It might also be in your best interest to take the video you create over to a professional golf instructor so he/she can evaluate it for you.
I'm taking my movie (and my golf swing) over to my swing coach, Bill Moro, for an evaluation. I have one lesson remaining in my group series before I have to purchase another set. If you are serious about the sport and want to take lessons it might also be a good idea to purchase a set of four or five of them. Not only does it come out cheaper but it may take a few lessons to ingrain that new, improved swing into your practice.

I've been having similar problems.
ReplyDeleteI came across a great website, www.golf-school-australia.com . They offer 11 pages of photos and diagrams that they send to you. They are excellent, and it's well worth signing up for!
I've since learned that the coach that wrote them is the director of the Australian High Performance Golf Academy, and coached that young amateur Korean schoolgirl that won the Australian Ladies Masters Tournament beating a bunch of the world's top women professionals.
Amazing story, since she can hardly speak english, and her coach cannot speak Korean. He reckons he has a unique training method . His slogan is “lower scores in record time” I reckon he achieved it with that Korean schoolgirl! Worth checking out www.golf-school-australia.com
Thanks for the tip but you failed to mention what my problem was!
ReplyDeleteHey Stacy,
ReplyDeleteI think you've been spammed!!
Maybe the problem he/she is referring to is that you're swinging the wrong way. How can you expect to move the ball with the back of the club???
Just kidding of course :^)
PS - I added a link to your blog from my blog, just like you asked!

Yeah, it is bizzare that you can hit the ball with a backward swing, but it did look pretty good. Looks powerful too.
ReplyDeleteKudos on the podasts. It's always fun listening to you guys, and I'd much rather do that than read it :-)
