Nice swing Nick, now I believe your scores. You have Ben Hogan's secret down pat. And you do a very good job of keeping your hands ahead of the club. It is obvious that you generate alot of power for a young fella'. Work on the short game and putting, you might have a real future in this.

After the photographer took those pictures of you, did you send your caddy to go take the camera away? Is that how you got those pictures????

In all seriousness, you must generate a lot of clubhead speed there. From the looks of the 3rd picture, your arms are almost at the ball but the club is lagging behind by a great deal. That's something I have to work on.

g'day nick

Great swing mate. Love the right elbow tucked in, really gives you great 'late hit' and fantastic connectivity. How is the short game?

What's your typical shot pattern like? And where do your bad shots go?

tremondous flexibility. your form prior to impact reminds me of jim furyk. his hips are facing the target right at impact. wonderful lower body action. i wish i just had 1/2 that, lol.

Great Schwing! My only comment is that in the 2nd picture, you look horribly uncomfortable/contorted as you follow throuh on your left leg. Doesn't that hurt your left knee?

Your Lag, swingplane, and weight transfer from right->left is very, very impressive. I can tell you're a "Young Gun!"

Nick, how often do you block the ball or hit a nice snap hook?

My bad shot is an occasional hook or block fade.

That was actually my mum taking those pics, and I'm amazed that she got one at impact!

With the second pic, it doesn't hurt my left leg at all, it actually hurts a little when I do keep it flexed.

I'm still working on keeping the right heel down a little longer.

I'll try and get my full swing pics up.

Nick

How did that guy know I hit a hook or a block? It's all in where the weight is positioned. I'd like to see your weight more on the balls of your feet throughout the swing. Also, your finish shows your weight on the outside of your left foot which indicates a slight "sway" toward the target.

Anybody got some drills to keep my leg drive down a little bit.

Personally, I'd like to see myself getting the right shoulder down a little bit on the 1st pic, is the right shoulder too level cause I have lag?
