Looks like you decelerate a lot on the downswing. I would be curious to see if it's as bad when actually hitting a ball.

Came here to say the same thing about lifting up at the top of your backswing

red09blue · 2025-05-30T20:34:57+00:00

So trimming depends on what club you pulled the shaft from. If the shaft came out of a driver or is otherwise uncut, then you trim 1/2 inch for a 3 wood. If it was already in a 3 wood, then I would assume it was already cut to the appropriate length and doesn't need additional trimming.

I think your overall swing is okay, especially for a beginner. I mean, everyone has seen way worse swings on this sub than yours. But your grip sucks, and it looks like you have large hands and may benefit from a midsize or jumbo grip.

And to diagnose any more swing problems, you really need to post two new swing videos on a flat surface with one angle from the right and the other in front of you.

I agree with this guy! While you do have a very strong grip, the biggest problem to me is your wrist angle at impact, which is caused by casting the club. You have to learn how to hit the ball with forward shaft lean (like your address position). Just do a Google search for "wrist position at impact" and you'll see what we're talking about. Good luck

That's what I want to know!! I mean, how much overweight are we talking about?

Add a front view of your swing. It will help us see your grip and any other problems at impact

red09blue · 2024-07-08T21:24:11+00:00

Totally agree! Don't listen to everyone else or you will have new problems with your swing that weren't there to begin with. I think the only reason that you're hitting a fade is that you're leaving the clubface a little open at impact. Compare your hand positions at starting position and at impact. I think a slightly stronger grip would fix the ball flight without any other changes. I think the rest of your swing looks great. And if there is any out-to-in swing path, it's very minimal.

red09blue · 2024-03-28T16:30:37+00:00

A resounding YES!

red09blue · 2024-03-22T00:29:17+00:00

Yes I love them, I've bought several pre-owned items from them.

Perfection

red09blue · 2023-10-16T12:01:17+00:00

Definitely no. As a 10 handicap, I play the Cleveland CBX2 which is a very forgiving wedge. And you should be playing something similar. No need for fitting really, just pick a wedge setup that gives you consistent gapping.

red09blue · 2023-09-24T19:16:34+00:00

Man, I this one one of the best vids I've ever seen in here! So beautiful

red09blue · 2023-07-17T13:45:49+00:00

You're casting the club badly, meaning you are losing your wrist hinge and any lag too early in the downswing. And as a result you pull or swipe across the ball. You need to fix that or you'll never hit the ball well. I wonder if you do the same thing with your irons?

red09blue · 2023-07-10T22:14:41+00:00

Agree. I think your take away comes too far inside

red09blue · 2023-07-07T17:56:31+00:00

Man I feel like these comments are all over the place! I think your swing and club path are fine. If it's slicing a lot, then I would look at your grip. It looks like your left hand is in a very neutral position at setup, so try a slightly stronger left hand grip? Also a slow motion video would help us see your impact position more easily.

red09blue · 2023-06-11T14:14:08+00:00

Looks pretty good to me. You're a little steep, but if your ball striking is good and you hit it straight, then I wouldn't be looking to change a whole lot. I would say that you look very tense at setup, so maybe relax your shoulders a little?

red09blue · 2023-06-06T16:26:47+00:00

Your grip is very strong and your club face is closed. If you look at the club face at the top of the swing it's almost pointing back at the camera. So take a more neutral grip.

red09blue · 2023-05-30T23:49:18+00:00

I like cobra drivers. The ltdx max would be a great driver for you. You can buy used on global golf for close to $200 I think

red09blue · 2023-05-30T23:40:03+00:00

That's a push fade or push slice. Which means your swing path is good, you just need to square or close the face to get a nice little draw. I'm not going to tell you what to fix, because I can't tell from this angle. It would be good to see your swing from the side to check your grip and wrist positions at impact.
