It took me 10 different iron ball flight videos to find someone that explained exactly what I’m doing wrong. I’m the green keeper’s best friend guy. Thanks so much!!
Same as some of the others here, watched several other videos to no avail, came across yours and I am greenskeepers best friend. Little to no divot, going to work on it on the range and have someone record it so I can see the difference.
Great insights, Carter! I don't hit my irons high, but I do hit them relatively short, and I think shaft lean is the culprit (I'm adding loft). But I'm very consistent, so I've just learned to live with it (because in golf it's how many, not how far!). Looking forward to the upcoming vlogs!
The end score is always most important. If you want to improve I would challenge you to fix the shaft lean if that is the cause of your high shots because it won't make you 'wayward' but by hitting the ball further you will lower scores
This used to be so me, Andy. I have corrected my ball striking with more shaft lean recently, and picked up an extra ten yards distance per club. So my shaft lean is pre set at address, however I have no idea how that angle is at impact without have a lesson or somebody looking at it on Trackman. I feel I get too much height even now. But \i am better than i was. Thanks for this.
I need to video my swing .. making adjustments to my backswing is double, but tint knowing what my downswing looks like makes it hard to make the correct adjustments
Good tip man. I think I'm doing the first one (swaying back). Was just thinking about trying to stop this - then see this - maybe this could be why I'm getting it so high as you say. Thanks for the vid :)
How to combat the early club release? I think my hands are in line with my back leg. Straight shots or slightly left, good divots, but too much spin and lack of distance. Thanks
@@andycartergolf I am but I am so comfortable with what I am doing, my body doesn't understand the need for change. I am sure you have students what that issue. What are you doing with them?
Identifying your faults is the 1st phase and most important. UA-cam has lots of accessible information regarding swing drills but knowing which to use is vital
Carter's Golf I do have lessons, when I get time. And I have some good drills to work on, it's nice seeing a description of faults & it certainly helps understand how to move forward. Really enjoying your new content BTW.

My pleasure. More content has just been released
Took me awhile to find one to
Thanks Andy. That’s why I use an 8 iron where others use a 56 degrees wedge.
One of the best videos I've seen on this topic.
Thanks Matthew. It’s an oldie but glad to see you’ve found it and it’s helped

Good stuff Andy. Keep them coming☺️
Cheers Tony, hope you're well
I think this is very accurate for an issue I'm having.
You sir are my new be UA-cam best friend.. You just added 15 yards to all my irons. Thank you!!
Great comment. Thank you

Thanks, Andy...I always thought that I moved my head by lifting my left shoulder...which is true, but was caused by my improper spine angle...
I'd suggest, go grab a lesson from a local pro and see you swing on video, that way you can use the facts of your swing faults to improve mechanics.
Well that explained a lot! Super content Andy; keep the vlogs coming buddy
Cheers
Thank you Malcolm

Great one again Andy. How I wish I could drop by and take a lesson with you.

I see the tan is coming on Carter! 👍
Yes indeed, tan game is strong :)
Good lesson Andy...
Thank you

Hope it helps buddy
Are there drills to combat the second reason? I’m struggling big time with this
I have the same problem. Did you find any drills that helped you?
Great video and tempo. Looking forward to trying an improvement down the range.
Thanks Tom. Hope it helped
Do you have a video on how to stop coming over the top (out to in)?
I have a few but check out my 3rd to last video released.
Hopefully this helps
Have I missed something? Titleist bag & clubs? I thought you were rocking the Cobra MB's???
The academy I work for is sponsored by Titleist and Footjoy
Carter's Golf So there is going to be a giveaway soon 😉

Do you have any videos to help with the early release?
So would the solution to early release be holding lag longer, more rotation or something nothing else?
Hard to say why without seeing a swing to be honest.
It could be lack of posture- weight shift or rotation, grip or even lag too.
guilty of all 3 of them I guess. maybe I start gardening.
hahaha, get practicing then!

Think I'm the latter one... Just need to find a drill to fix it!

Uh, how about the cure. Not just the cause...
Good reasons, but no advice. Why didn’t you give how to correct the three faults. Useless info without the answers!!
Fair point. Hopefully my delivery of tips during videos has improved since this was made around 4 years ago!
