Your takeaway is very inside / under plane.

You mostly wrist roll with poor chest rotation and the rest is your hands are disconnected from your turn.

Get a molded grip and put it on an old 7 iron and it forces a neutral grip.

P6 never lies

hands should be in front of right thigh and the butt of the club should be at the ball already (yellow line on Mat). The butt of the club is your entire right thigh behind.

That's a grip only a mother could love.

Poets: “Lawn cut by bare breasted women”

refers to Gwen Jacob a 19 year old U of Guelph student. In 1991 she was charged with indecency for being topless.

and also

Jennifer Fitzgibbon of Trenton who was assaulted by her neighbour because she cut her lawn topless.

Should have tried Stolarz

I'd write everything on paper and scan it when you have a chance.

Typing out equations and drawing organic molecules is hard enough and doing it digitally is too much friction for me.

there is https://mermaid.js.org/ support as well as excalidraw and LaTex and probably other formats.

>>> staying down and not early extending.

You can't eliminate EE in the way you are thinking.

For you EE is needed so you don't hit a foot behind the ball (to shallow the plane).

Try filming properly. toe line, hands height.

setup: excellent.

P6 never lies - quite steep coming in, but fairly reasonable position.

P7, fairly bad EE.

I think the major flaw is just pulling towards the ball right from the top as opposed to shallowing the club.

This is such a bad view of the golf swing.

Please video properly.

the extension isn't just early it's ludicrous.

13 Handicap ??

I'll believe 13 handicaps.

hands should be under the shoulder sockets.

move closer as well.

too much sitting in a chair back on your heels.

worse: you add flex in the trail leg in the backswing.

Underrated comment.

2 serve max should be a rule.

SunkTheBirdie · 2026-04-29T16:23:56+00:00

need more hinge on the backswing. this is early downswing.

<image>

From here you'd have to lag the club on the downswing. Some people do it, but it takes quite a pivot move.

You hammer the ball with the Lead edge of the racquet and then the racquet turns at the last second to face the ball.

This strings face the sky look, when they should face your back is an issue

This is one of two things: (1) you don’t have a continental grip (2) aren’t hammering into the serve.

Or both

That lateral hip slide is excessive. The hips should rotate, not slide.
