What should I do if my practice swings look great even on video. But as soon as there’s a ball and I need any power my bad habit of over swinging creeps up. Every single time. 😢
My swing looks EXACTLY like your students. Causes me to be steep in the downswing. Trying to work this off-season on flatting my back swing. Thanks for the help
do you have any ideas/tips on slowing the backswing down to help with this stopping the over swing idea? im one of those quick backswing players that ends up overswinging
Follow-up: Worked on wrist angles and that trailing elbow. Focused on all angles at the top of the swing as you showed. The driver swing feels more repeatable and much more consistent. Fairways hit are up significantly. Thank you for the video! Question: Does an over-swing also cause a power leak?
@@rosariomartinez820 For me, it was multipart. My driver miss was an overdraw or hook, but with ok path. The wrist angles and elbow help deliver a square face. He only mentioned it briefly in the video, but he mentioned a pause at the top. I added this to my driver swing and that fixed the over swing issue. It also fixed my driver tempo and makes the swing feel more connected. Looking back, mentally I was trying to get every inch out of the driver. This led to bad tempo, throwing the club back and ultimately the over swing. Mentally I accepted shorter distances in exchange for a better driver swing. As the new muscle memory took hold the distance came back. If this guy was in Texas I would find him just to shake his hand. This video helped me a lot.
hey Jonathan, I do exactly this move when I overswing, frickin all of it - flying right elbow, extension across the line and it looks frickin ugly as hell! I wish I was able to send you a video which leads to inconsistencies due to poor timing 😵💫 I will work on those tips you shared. Looking at a down-the line video of myself, I go back nice enough and on-plane but then I go looking for more coil and that's when the trail elbow lifts and then my wrist cups when all I need to do is just stop short just before it turns to custard, which is largely the length of the L to L swing.
This is exactly the problem I am going through at the moment. Thank you Jonathan for the drill!! Excellent instruction.
This is the best explanation of over-swinging I have seen. I will work on your tips. Thank you!
Totally agree with your comment!
Thank you for sharing this video.
Very helpfull 👍👍

Good stuff! Thanx!
Excellent video. Is just what I was looking for to correct my over swing.

Hi how do u play a power fade . Thanks
great idea to use the wall as a gauge to determine whether one overswing.
Oh man, I need this video for my driver. I over swing driver, but not irons.

How is it going one year afterwards? I feel I have exactly the same issue… any additional advice? Thanks.

@@rosariomartinez820- Hope it helps and good luck!
I’m happy with my 60, 56 degree and pitching wedges, but when I hit my 9 iron I pull it left 95% of the time, go up they seem to straighten out again.
This is really helpful! Will try the wall practice👍
stick to those basics I showed you first! =D

Thanks a lot !!!! Same comment than Mike Horne, best explanation of over swing.
JKM, really helpful drill. What is the longest club you can use for this drill? Thanks.
I been checking my self ok course compared to free practice at home. My issue is wrist position with too much radial deviation. Thanks for the drill.
Great practice drill will start using this ASAP as I have the problem of over swinging
i have the trail elbow popping out like that at the top and extended wrist, thnx for the help.
Thanks for this video! Will give the drill a try
Makes a lot of sense to my swing but seems like a hard fix
I made a hole in the wall....
