I could be wrong, I’m not a golf expert, but it looks like you have the same thing as me which is going over the top in your down swing, I’ve almost fixed it. I’ve been remembering what Bryson said here and it really has been helping ▶ this video

I have the same problem with my hands going straight to the ball. I appreciate your tip here as well. I want to add that I found a drill Bryson shared that's simple and that I tried out on the range. Involved dropping the hands straight down from the top and then turning. Not sure about the rest of OPs swing, but this has helped me start getting downswing on the right plane. ▶ this video

Solid move that is a great foundation! 1. So at the top of your backswing, your first move (in the first clip) is to push your right shoulder toward the ball, the arms follow- causing the over the top/weak left to right ball flight 2. To fix this, try this great feel/drill from Bryson Dechambeau about shallowing, and getting your swing more on plane. The feel is dropping your hands into your pocket. I’ll link it- ▶ …

I have the same problem but had some really good success trying to throw the club down behind me. Watched a good video about feeling like you are throwing paint off the back of your club onto the floor behind you but can't find that video so here is one of Bryson that is effectively saying the same thing. ▶ this video

[i.redd.it] In the GIF above I have drawn a red line representing the functional swing plane. This is a line drawn through the club hosel and your trail elbow. 3D measurements have shown that most elite golfers swing close to this plane when the club-head is below their head height. The preference is to be at or slightly above this line in the backswing and at or slightly below this line in the downswing. In your …

u/logicmechanic 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Is this the right way to shallow?”
Great job in my opinion. If you wanted to achieve an inside club path and the face slightly closed to that path resulting in a lovely push draw this move does it. You are doing excellently. It looks like you doing a great job at a popular drill Bryson talks about - ▶ this video It looks like a drill at the moment, which is awesome because are making mechanical changes to achieve the numbers. You'll probably find if …

Problem Youve got a few issues going on, but your transition is the biggest problem. I dont like comparing people to DJ, but you've got the closed clubface at the top and some wrist bowing, so lets roll with it. You get to the top and your first move is to throw the hands at the ball. You stand the shaft up. Look at the hands coming through the neck. DJ is shallowing the shaft. The clubhead is actually going further …
