You might have the best training videos on UA-cam. Glad I found you

[@jchowngolf]

Thanks Ryan! Very kind words! I’m glad you’re finding my videos helpful!

[@doncowdell2629]

J, the 3 things you address in this video has massively improved my over the top move. It has also helped my confidence since I am now in a better position at the top. My coach has me working on these things as reinforcement every session. I like your teaching style and your personality in delivery. Glad I subscribed. ✌🏻good luck
Cheers

I find your videos very clear and easy to follow but I want to add a reason why I personally have been swinging over the top all my life. It is to do with a thought and feeling for getting back to the ball as simply as possible with as few moving parts from the top.
If you take your position at the top and without doing anything else, straighten your left elbow (like casting) and then turn to hit the ball, you do not need to drop your hands at all. Then if you speed this motion up by just straightening the left elbow as you rotate back to the ball, you can get back to the ball quite easily.
The thought of dropping your hands (the sliding down the wall drill) feels as though you are adding a variable (how far do I drop them?) and is not related to the feeling of unwinding the backswing in my head.
I just wanted to share this as I feel that others may have this thought in their head also when going over the top.

[@gordontucker055]

I’m not “over the top” but my arc is “behind” the ball, resulting with pulls, even with 40 yd pitch shots. I use the speed trap by eyeline and hit (nip) the back post with the toe. Ball goes left, mostly with irons

[@mikeburkard2315]

This is real good.

[@mazahirhasan6281]

Very informative content.

[@jchowngolf]

Thanks Mazahir! 👍🏼

[@123GPA]

Thank you for the video. Can you open up your hips to far or too fast at the start of the down swing to shallow out the club and help to not come over the top?

[@jchowngolf]

Thanks bud. The hips can definitely be opened up too fast, although it shouldn’t be too much of a concern for over the top golfers 👍🏼

[@mikeburkard2315]

The best.

[@iupab]

Great video.....does this also address casting or does casting have its own causes?

[@jchowngolf]

Thanks bud. Casting can be caused by an excess out to in path, but it’s usually a reaction to an overly open club face 👍🏼

[@chrisb594]

That has got to be vandalism to the clubhouse.

[@davefiano4172]

Lack of hand depth seems symptomatic of lack of shoulder turn which is a result of lack of tilt. Meaning raising the hands up in the air means you’re not turning your SHOULDERS. I guess that’s why you did a video on shoulder tilt being “non-negotiable” right?

[@ehbenson2948]

Will try, but probably get sacked by my country club for abusing the clubhouse wall

[@edwardbethea4315]

You talk too much get on with the lesson.

[@FC-mh1uy]

Thanks for explaining my actual problem . See you!

[@Peter-we8iw]

I found thinking that I am keeping my back pointed to the target at the top of the backswing helpful in activating the downswing with the legs and hips.
