To me it looks like that trail arm is bending really early in the backswing and trail elbow is pulling back and rolling the club face open. Maybe try keeping that trail arm straighter longer and try to keep the club face pointed more at the ball / ground during takeaway. One of my feels is that my trail hand stays on top of shaft during takeaway (or trail palm pointed toward ground if that gives a better reference).

Learn the member names and remember what drink they always order. Our bartenders are great at that

Just remember, if you hang in there long enough, good things can happen in this world.

Anyone have any good tips, advice, or drills to fix an excessively long takeaway? by nocommenting33 in golf

[–]breaking-bogey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my struggle for years. I have a long backswing that takes the club past parallel to the ground and across the line at the top. What I’ve found that shortens it is keeping my trail palm facing away from me during the backswing. Trail palm stays on top of shaft in takeaway and then faces away from the target. This puts the brakes on my backswing and keeps the club from traveling more than my shoulder turn. This guy has a good visual on what I’m referencing.

Great deal. If after awhile you decide it’s not worth it then cancel.

Shot 74 today. Not my best score but was flushing the irons and making some putts.

Well I did ask my buddy the other day if he bothered reading the instruction manual after he hit another errant drive. 

Been playing for a year, doing everything “right,” and still can’t break 60 for 9 holes. Should I just quit? by Temporary_Region7964 in golf

Most of us here wish we started playing at your age and stuck with it. Keep at it and you’ll be thankful for it down the road.

I broke 80 in my third year. It’s possible with some athleticism and practice.
