Nice site there, by the way. Your swing kinda has a Sergio-like look to it (hopefully without the preshot waggles ). That's as far as I'll go since I'm no teaching pro.
Haha thanks, some people think its a little too politically offensive but it's my site. Anyway thanks for the comment, My teacher says that I really am able to get the club into the slot on the downswing and with my swingspeed, I get alot of distance.

Nice site. Your swing looks nice smooth and powerful. I did notice that your hips do more of a slide instead of a turn on the takeaway. You might get more distance and prevent slicing without the slide - that is, if you do slice - if you make a better hip turn. Otherwise, it looks good.
Yea, I almost never slice it. In fact when I make a bad swing its usually a low hook. My teacher says I have over active hands, from years of being taught to turn the club over but my other pro. He has me working on making better contact at impact, while at the same time changing my swing path. Lets just say it isn't too easy. But when it works I kill the ball. For instance on the first hole at my home course, a 540 yard par 5, I hit my drive to the 200 yard marker. The funny thing is guys that I play with get so surprised at my length only being 5'8'' 120.
Looks like a good swing, good finish. I am not pro, but i have always been told by guys to try and get as little lower body movement as possible and it seems that you have a bit, i don't know if that throws you off or if it helps your distance or what, but i am no pro just what i have heard.
Overall looks like a good swing to me. Lower handicap swing anyways.
Smooth swing, very fluid. Need to lift chin up a little to allow shoulder to turn under it a little easier. You move your head too much throughout the swing. It can move back and forth a little but it lunges down at the ball during the downswing. Head should stay level untill the force of the club pulls you up on the follow through. on the front view watch how at the top your head drops from the top of the backswing, This will probably cause you big problems hitting long bunker shots, 150 yds+

Hogan said to unwind the hips as fast as you can. Now I agree limiting lower body movement on the takeaway but not during the downswing. The coil between the hips and the shoulders is a big power producer. Look into jim mclains x factor
