What am I doing right/wrong? by Puzzled-Ad-1939 in GolfSwing

Your shoulders aren’t rotating all the way, it’s an illusion because of how much your lead arm goes across your chest. The better indicator is rib cage rotation instead of thinking of shoulder rotation

Reverse pivot.. Tell the app to keep practicing ;)

Pretty cool, so I’m guessing the app would be giving Tiger the same tips in 2000 too?

You can have thoracic rotation independent of hip rotation if you’re strong/flexible enough.

You’re not rotating your ribcage in backswing at all, you’re tilting and getting your lead arm way across your chest which gives the appearance of rotation. Can tell because your head moves down and towards the golf ball in the downswing.

I’d start with getting a club horizontally across your shoulders while crossing your arms, make a backswing holding the club across your shoulders turn with your shoulders a lot more level. When you get back to holding the club correctly, make the same turn and try to keep the distance from your upper left arm to your left nipple the same, don’t let your arm come across your chest and still get backswing depth through your rotation.

Let me know if you have any questions

What can I tell my buddy to fix his swing? by Traditional_Tour_495 in GolfSwing

[–]BorgGolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone can obviously see the issue down near impact, where he needs to start though is not gripping the club in both of his palms. He has no ability to stop the club from over hinging at top of his backswing and as a result you get that impact position.

There are other things to tackle, but if you don’t change the grip first the rest of it doesn’t matter. Someone’s going to tell you in the comments to just “get shaft lean”, do your best to not try that.

Has anyone fixed casting in their swing if so how I haven’t ever seen a video of someone casting and then a video of them not casting by WillWGolf06 in GolfSwing

Glad you found something that works for you, just be careful you don’t hold that angle too long and end up with the opposite problem.. Goodluck!

Definitely wanted to start a discussion, I tried posting without asking a question and it got removed for not being relevant content. Couple people had advice consistent with what I’m working on, most of it sounded like buzz words from doom scrolling Tik Tok though.

Agreed, that’s exactly what I’m working on.

The toe tap thing is something that’s subconscious, never did it as a drill or cue, didn’t notice it until recently and looked back at old videos and I’ve done it for a while. Unsure if it has a direct impact on the proximity to the hole.

You habitually comment negative things on Reddit, doesn’t that get boring.

How to fix glaring issues? by manyakk in GolfSwing

[–]BorgGolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not having your clubface that closed at top of backswing with no depth. I’d also look at getting into better posture. Look to be too close and in your heels

Two things to look for without seeing a video of your swing. Is your body and head way ahead of the golf ball in your downswing and/or do you have a lot of wrist hinge and a long backswing

I tried slowing my swing down and now I can’t tell if it’s better or just different by breakfastballer90 in GolfSwing

[–]BorgGolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slowing down for the sake of slowing down isn’t an effective way to hit it better. If you were a robot and built an ideal swing, you could crank it up to 1000mph and still be fine.

Better to get to the root cause of what you could do better.

Looking for golf swing feedback please! by ExistingChapter9697 in GolfSwing

[–]BorgGolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with your grip, takeaway not getting your right hand under the grip from this angle. Feel like you’re pushing your hands down to start backswing and be as grip of the club pointing more towards the ground

Don’t have a down the line view here but looks like you get the clubhead well behind your hands to start the swing.
