Figured now that the Masters has passed, people are going to start getting back into golf for the summer. If you need any help with swings, post them here and see if anyone can help. Ive been teaching lessons for about 5 years now so I will do my best to help if needed!

videos of swings are the best help for identifying problems

Im pretty sure every professional swing coach in the nation has tried to fix this awful swing, its so damn funny watching him just blast the ball all over the place

I never took a lesson in my life just kind of winged to learn how to play golf in highschool. I always hit a massive slice with my driver and long irons, but was basically ok 7-PW. Then I started watching YouTube videos and figured out I was over the top, I was early extending, my grip was all fucked up, I wasn’t compressing the ball properly with dynamic loft, I was hitting behind the ball so my ball striking is shit…

basically I do absolutely nothing right and my swing is a fucking mess, my confidence is in the shitter please advise

Always fun to do at the driving range. I tried to do this on an actual course and royally fucked up. Ball went nearly 90deg right, straight into the windshield of a golf cart sitting on the path. Coulda killed someone. Won't do that again lol

Honestly it can be hard to tell without a video but from the sounds of it you might have a harder time getting your weight to the left (or right) side of your body… I had a problem with this all last year and once your weight transfer is good then all your other parts should fall into place
