Great video. I have been struggling with the over-the -top swing for a long time. I did notice my trail knee going towards the ball but never knew the two were connected. Look forward to trying the tip of lowering myself into the ground before I start the downswing. I also notice my trail knee going towards the ball with pitch shots. Will try to eliminate that as well. Thanks for the clear instruction!
@scotto3845 thanks for commenting, pleased you enjoyed the video. The lowering into the ground and the knee going in a key checkpoints for the downswing move. Keep me posted!
Really good explanation an visualisizing the correct steps to fix a over the top action eliminating those nasty slices very clear especially the dropping of the arms straight down
Interesting about the right knee causing an outside in swing! I tend to pay attention to where my right elbow is during the swing. I try to keep it close to my right side on my in to out swing. If the right elbow comes away from my side, it always means that I'm going to come over the top. Visualizing a 45* inclined circle and keeping my right shoulder back, not allowing it to come out, also helps me out a lot with my swing! Well Done As Usual Harry!
It’s interesting you talk about this John. You’ll want to stay tuned for Fridays video that’s for sure. Good to read this is helping you improve the downswing!
Place an alignment stick directly in line with the flag/ target and your golf ball about 10 feet away from the ball. Aim to hit the ball right of the stick with the in to out path drill form the video! If still struggling follow me on Skillest and we can discuss your golf swing!
I would say a full driver length in terms of distance away from the ball. Enough so that if you were to make contact with the stick it would be with the club itself as opposed to your hands. Thank you!
New sub - Can you make a video on what your trail side does during the drive. I struggle on "reaching" towards the ball on my driver and hit the heel... Seems easy to just step back, but my brain feels too far so I just reach more and hit the heel still. I have a feeling I need to keep my trail arm in, but I can't turn well if I keep that connected to my body.

5 minutes in, liked and appreciated!
Pleased you enjoyed the video, have you managed to give this a try at the driving range yet?
Harry, does this squat move to start the downswing work even with a stronger grip???? Thanks
@MB-ep2vt great question, and yes definitely!
clear concise instruction, you could teach ot hers how to teach.
Hi thanks for commenting with your thought, much appreciated, pleased this video was helpful for your golf game!
Whats the angle for the alignment stick
Slightly steeper than the angle of the club shaft at setup.
Hi Harry. Any tips for stopping the hooks while practising this?

I understand the angle of the stick. How far back from the ball is the unit placed, and is it STRAIGHT back? Thank you, great instructions.

I'll take note of this to add to the videos i'll be producing, thanks for subscribing, more to come!
The pressure down on transition has given me more time so I don’t feel as though I’m rushing from the top. Thanks
You're welcome Raymond. Please you've found this video useful. How's your golf been recently? have you managed to play much?
@@harryshawgolf thanks Harry every now and then I seem to pull my shots and also I’ve been missing left with my putts
Hi Raymond, will also take note of this for future content… if you’d like me to take a look at your swing follow me on the Skillest app
Can't see the line of the swing plate in relation to the ball
Hi Robert, i would suggest 5-6 feet away, and a couple of inches back in relation to the ball to target line.
