Are you coming over the top in your golf swing? Here's how to fix it!
Coming over the top in your golf swing simply means not following the correct club path on your downswing... Instead of swinging down and delivering the club from the inside, your club falls outside of your swing plane, and you end up losing power and/or hitting a nasty slice.
The main reason you're coming over the top is due to over-use of your body, and the sequence of motion in your swing is off.
The first step to fixing this is taking a look at the initial move away from the ball...
In the video you'll see a simple way to insure that your initial move away gets you into position for an on-plane swing that avoids the over the top move.
Next, we'll take a look at your downswing and how to use your arms in your swing and get your club to fall down on plane so you can hit more solid shots with better accuracy, more distance.

Haven't been able to hit my driver since my brain surgery in 2018. Watched this video last night and hit about 20 out of 30 balls at the range straight as an arrow! You sir are the man! Earned a follower.

I've spent a lot of time watching UA-cam golf videos and can truthfully say that this clip by Jim Roy is one of the best I've come across. I've been struggling with "coming over the top", and Jim's instruction about "quieting the body" and "giving room for the arms to swing" was a real eye-opener to me. Where many noted golf instructors are saying that you need to "fire the lower body first" and "move the hips", this instruction says to "quiet" the body and let the arms swing freely from the inside. I tried it, and it works! I'm now following all of Jim's UA-cam videos, and I have found him to be a terrific teacher of the golf swing. Also, check out his instructional video on posture. It's a great one, too!
I agree. I’ve heard a lot of firing the lower body first, I’ve never heard of “quieting” to help with this. Will try soon
"Now remember, you've got to exaggerate it just to change a little in this crazy game". That is my Quote of the year!
I've struggled with this for months. Unfortunately my instructor couldn't relay the same info you just did in your video. One day while at the range, I tried something new, which was allowing my wrists to move instead of my arms just being an extension of the club. As soon as you said "too much tension in your arms" I immediately related. Great videos!
A local pro in Atlanta taught me the exact the same things Jim mentioned. A lot people told me to forget about it. I think I’m gonna go back and work on these two drills. Since everyone else isn’t helping me with my over the top/ steep downswing lol. His method makes a lot of sense
Great video. If watched all your over the top videos and they are bril6to watch and very easy to understand. Thank you
The up-the-hill thing is game-changing. Thank you, sir.
This is the Best lesson on OTP that I have seen. Great job. Thanks.
Happy to hear it helped!
Great visuals and explanation. Immediately helped me!
I just found your video on over the top ,it's going to be a great help for me and I'm very impressed with how you explain things,looking for more of your video's. Thanks again GC
That right foot back drill is the greatest thing I have ever tried. Literally stopped coming over the top and hitting draws within one bag of balls. Thank you so much.
Try the head cover/towel under back armpit drill. Much better because it actually teaches you how to swing on balance. Also it wont mess up your aim like this back foot drill.
@@jacobsommers6952 that drill isnt bad but aim was not the focus. Once I got a feel for my drill, the whole point is to set up square and have the in to out path feel incorporated. I have even been using that as part of my pre-shot routine with great success.
Very effective, thanks for the lesson!
this is hands down the best piece of golf advice i have every received
thank you so much
Great tips. Thank you!
Can I tell you that the right foot drill has really helped my driver shots. I dont always get a draw but the ball goes almost straight now and of course more distance. Thank you very much. James (Scotland )
This is a very good video! I like the split screen with two different camera angles. This type of "over the top" kinda swing is my biggest issue for my driver.
That is exactly my faulty down movement. Well explained! Thank you. Thank you.
At 0:51, you nailed what I do. I've always (but been unaware of) started the downswing with my upper body, causing my club to be steep, hands out away from the body, and an outside in swing path. You're video helped me discover this. I went to the range to fix this - it's definitely awkward because the right way is new, but man did I ever get a hold of a few with a seemingly effortless swing because it was my hips that were dragging my upper body through to contact. I went from 240 yd slices to hitting the range net about 80ft up the net at the 245 marker! Thanks for the video. Very much appreciated.
Thanks Jim for the video instruction. With the drills you suggested, I now know what the swing should feel like.
Great video! I will be implementing these drills into my practice routine! As soon as the snow melts!
How’d it go?
Superb video. Thanks so much for these tips. Especially coming way to inside on backswing.
you have showed me what ive been doing, this helped tremendously to understand my over the top move, thanks.
Good job Jim ... excellent solutions and very informative ...
Great drills and swing thoughts. Thanks for posting.
I am constantly fighting(!!!) coming over the top and when I’m off I think about this video and these 3 drills. Thanks so much for putting this out there! -Former CNY’er
This is top level stuff, thanks
Fantastic video! Thank you so much!
Now that's one of the best videos yet. Thanks you.
Clear, brief and easy - KISS keep it short and simple.
jim...thks for the great tips....i can't wait to try them out...ps...i followed you one time as you were attempting to qualify at for u.s. open at montclair cc because my high school friend(john peterson)... who you knew at USF mentioned you to me and said what a great player you ...keep up the great work..thks again
Great drills well presented. Thanks
Great video - have been struggling with over the top, the “stagger foot” drill helped fix that plus it reinforced shoulder/hip turn and foot weight shift - have incorporated the drill into my pre-shot routine. Thanks!!
Thank you!!!!! Can’t wait for the range 🐐
Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to going to the range!
This is great thank you. I struggle with this. One way I know I am coming over too much on a drive is when I burry the ball and it hits about 5 inches in front of the tee and bounces up. That is a sure sign to me that I came over on the down swing
wow, this actually worked. I was almost ready to quit. watched this yesterday, went to the range, did both drills and never hit a bad shot. unreal. thank you.
@@chadwilliams3468 yes, Chad, I put my left foot forward and it was almost in line with my right foot behind. just a little right of my left so I had some balance. it worked like a charm. hit everything straight. you have to do it enough to get the "feel" of using arms more but it worked. good luck!!! I had the same issue as you.
Last round was pulling everything left. Turned a light bulb on for me!! Thank you!
first time I've heard too far inside to start and wow it solved it all for me. I was pretty close to figuring it out and this pushed me over the edge. THANK YOU
Very Helpful and to the point.. Thank Youi
You just changed my life. Got out of bed at 130 am to work on this. Already can tell my path is where it needs to be! I get my body into too soon , x baseball player.
Very informative. Thank you.
Same drill my golf coach gave me, the right foot even with left heel. However, I like that you added the other one about pausing at the top and starting with the arms. My coach didn't inform me of that and I did suspect that the first move on my down swing was causing the over the top swing. Your video confirms it - thanks.

Thanks Jim!! Your videos are very informative and helpful in correcting bad tendencies of which I have MANY!! Kudos!! Hi from the Loeber’s in Jersey✌️ I’ll be golfing w U Franny and U Fred soon sharing some of these tips bc I’m pretty sure they aren’t watching UA-cam. 😂 😊✌️🏌️⛳️
Great drill tried it last night the split stance worked for me
thank you...the right foot back drill has really helped
Winner of a video, I have been researching "golf improvement tools" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Graysonyon Putter Prolific - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my co-worker got excellent success with it.
Fantastic stuff here

Thx, great stuff!
Great video
U r a great coach
Love your video thanks
Great Video! well explained.....Thx!
Thanks for watching!
Good lesson 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I actually tried this. The 1st drill. What i discovered was that I folded the right arm correctly that made me swing more from the inside. A throwing action. I put down small exit mirror on the ground and balls in front the mirror so I watch myself swing from the above. It really helped me with sensation and feelings. Thanks for the tips! Great help.
Pure gold.
Cant wait to go home and try the right foot back trick. I am constantly standing up and this should help me with my weight distribution.
This is awesome
Excellent drill.......cheers!

Anyone else keep noticing the random golf balls in front of him for no reason?!? Haha Awesome video Jim. I went drom a 20 to a 7 handicap in one year by building a sim and intense practice; however my natural swing is over the top.. I spent 6 hrs yesterday on my sim trying to fix my over the top swing. It wasn't until I gave up, wanted to snap every club in my bag 5-hrs later, that I came across this video. I finally felt like what it's supposed to feel like to swing without effort and sort of look like a pro on my replay cameras. Now how to engrave this will be the challenge. Is it common to "fat" shots often when you change to this swing at first? I hope so.
I’m a lefty and hitting over the top is my biggest issue. This will be helpful. Thank you.
Did it work?
Great advice
Thank you!
"The lay of the land", a favorite Bob Ross the painter quote. LOL
