Rory Mcilroy pure iron swing in slow motion

Honestly it’s a good on plane swing. I’ll comment back with the Athletic Motion Golf video on weight shift (please watch their videos, they are easily the best YouTube channel for instruction). The bottom line of the video is that pros begin shifting their weight forward before the top of the backswing. In the video below Rory stops shifting weight back at about lead arm parallel. He shifts his weight forward once …

I would start with the backswing. You are swaying back when you should be rotating instead. Feel the pressure on the inside of your trail foot on the backswing. This should be where you hold yourself from swaying back. You almost have to feel like you are pushing back from the inside trail foot. Feel your hips staying in place on the backswing and rotate your hips. You also go too far back on the backswing with your …

Left hand grip looks incredibly strong, and it looks like you start to shift your hip forward but you don't shift your weight forward really, causing you to tilt your spine backwards and cast the club, scooping the ball instead of compressing it. For reference, Club should be almost parallel to the ground when In P6. You start your backswing hinging your wrists too, if you watch guys like Rory they don't start …

Watch ▶ this video by Rory. Notice how his body doesn't sway back on the backswing, it only rotates. Then on the downswing he sways forward. That's what you want. Notice in your swing that your body is swaying back on the backswing.

It's not excessive, looks within a healthy range. Almost every pro shifts. The ball position is a ball or two back though and probably the cause of the low ball flight. ▶ this video

One quick thing in the last video. You turn your back to the target then sort of bend over backwards at the waist toward the target. Draw a straight line from your foot to your shoulder. No part of your body should pass that on the back swing. Obviously it’s not fair to compare to Rory, but look at his left side on the back swing. ▶ this video

Scheffler and other pros 100% shift before any rotation happens. Look at slow motion video of them, you need to get on the lead side before the end of the backswing. It of course can be over done, you want to shift pressure into your lead foot which will also move your weight some forward. ▶ this video

u/Maas_b 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Add on to my previous post. Face on view.”

To me it looks like you are not shifting your body forward enough in the downswing. You are kind of catching it at the bottom of the arc, presenting too much loft causing a high launch. If you pause just around impact you can see there is no shaft lean at impact, so your irons are not delofted at all. Just an inch or so more of forward movement would shift your low point in front of the ball, ensuring you catch the …

U need to load pressure onto your right foot during backswing. U can see your right side of pelvis shifting towards target because u didn't load properly. Watch this ▶ this video video. Also, look at your legs going up in backswing compared to ▶ this video
