u/LongjumpingButton13 2026 · r/GolfSwing · in “Drill to fix this?”

I used to swing like this! In short, I was too focused on turning my hips in place of coiling my torso and using my feet to shift pressure. Now I don't tend to think about rotating my hips- it just happens. When I look at your swing, I think you've over-rotated and gotten a bit too far inside. You quickly spin your hips out on the downswing and then let your arms swing out to the ball (which is why this shot goes a …

I got roasted for my backswing on here the other day, and this video helped simplify it for me. I was really struggling to imagine what an on plane backswing would feel like. I was so in my head lol. this is so easy. pull the club straight back and then up! ▶ this video

This comment is on the right track. Listen to Porzak describe the lead shoulder feel. ▶ this video ▶ this video ▶ this video ▶ this video However, this is your main issue - your lead arm is too far across your chest. This is called the Lead Arm Adduction Angle. Your swing is too much arm swing relative to your torso turn. Your torso turn is supposed to provide about 80%-90% of the depth for the swing not your arms …

You need to hinge more and earlier. Club head should cover the hands here at p2. Its too low in your swing. Heres a porzack golf short. There are several longer ones but I like his takeaway stuff. ▶ this video Also I have the SAME issues as you and I too am obsessed with takeaway and I also own a hack motion. My instructor uses it too and it does a lot of great stuff. Its not the best for takeaway, FYI. Heres the …

u/Huge_Increase7741 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Fix my swing”

There’s alot going on here but I’ll start at the beginning. You have virtually no wrist hinge in your backswing. Honestly it’s impressive as someone like me who has too much. Watch this video : ▶ this video Honestly. Watch this video 100 times. This will set you on a solid foundation.

u/NoLawAtAllInDeadwood 2025 · r/GolfSwing · in “Please can my fiancé have some feedback on her swing?”

She is putting all her weight on her front leg in the backswing and just tilting forward, instead of turning into her back leg. So on the downswing there is no weight shift and hence no power. She should focus first just on takeaway and the proper rotation into the backswing. Get those 2 parts right and the rest of the swing almost takes care of itself. She doesn't even need to hit balls, just work on the movements. …

u/Exotic_Physics9484 2026 · r/GolfSwing · in “Getting worse and worse”

Work on the takeaway that will set up the rest of the swing. I used to have this problem with the club head going inside and causing me to be too laid off at the top and I’d have to throw the club over the top to correct and early extending. Porzak golf has good stuff to check out ▶ this video

Try on the takeaway to keep the club more outside and above your hands until they pass your right thigh. The club right now is getting closed, underneath, and inside your hands a bit much on the takeaway. Check out this takeaway move: ▶ this video

u/warfoxz 2024 · r/GolfSwing · in “not overswinging anymore but now my swing seems worse”

I think you have a decent swing, but something might be getting lost during the takeaway. Try a few ▶ this video to make it feel tighter and like you're using your shoulders and wrists to drive the club head up to your backswing. In the video, it seems like you're using a lot of leg movement to start the takeaway. It should feel tighter and more on plane by utilizing your shoulders. This helps with consistency. …
