Critique my swing

link removed - language

Is the club still off plane? Also do you think if i shortened my swing till it was at parallel that my club would be on the right plane? Cause it seems like the club is on the right plane till i get to the top then it goes off plane not sure though.

I can hit range balls around 290ish. And that is with an unfit driver and range balls of course. So im guessing that would be 350 with fit club and prov1. I have tour dreams and been working my *** off everyday trying to perfect the swing. And wont stop till i get to the top. So any advice would be nice.:)

Aww shucks.. I didn't get to hear what was said.

Anyways.. Isn't swearing part of the game of golf.

Just watch Tiger play.. or Sergio Putt.. talk about foul.


I think if you post the video on swingacademy.com they will strip the audio by default.

This is from during my backswing and is before my club gets past parallel and my question is should i stop the club on the backswing here? instead of going past like i do?

Looks like you're flipping your wrists (your left wrist is cupped in this pic).

Re: Critique my swing

Club shaft is across the line and club face open at the top from the rear shot. Take a look at the Jeff Ritter video below for problems and fixes for that. From your straight on shot it seems to me that you don't fold your right elbow soon enough. In other words you keep your right arm straight well into the back swing only folding after you lift your arms. That gets your elbow too far from your body resulting in the across-the-line position at the top. When I look at your address, I wish the shot was more straight on, but it looks like to me you are leaning the shaft back. That is not a good address position for irons especially the more lofted clubs. For must clubs the shaft should lean forward with the driver being the exception.

I was looking at your comments. You have the right perception that you are going off plane at the top. Have you had any lessons? There are many things on which you need to work and lessons may shorten the learning curve for you.
